I am being lazy in not digging out any kind of real science to back myself up but anecdotal results greatly influenced by the placebo effect does not make it sound advice. I should add that doing long work outs beyond your glycogen stores not eating MAY be beneficial. But you are talking about 2hr plus cardio efforts which is not really tbat relavent to the average person trying to lose weight or even the average athlete.
If it "works" fine you likely aren't doing any harm but you might as well buy my rock that keeps tigers away.
