If you truly find no food, fat - though less so. Your body can live for a little while off your fat stores, but with no proteins it will eventually start to break down. I’ve seen 6 weeks cited as a typical life expectancy without food. Even on a starvation diet, that’s not long enough to lose the minimum 100+ lbs an average adult would need to drop to reach a vaguely healthy weight. This paper [1] suggests that 6 weeks of starvation would result in less than 40lbs of weight loss.
