Um, James and GC: Is there any reason to eat?  Sure. We eat to maintain life. I suppose, however, once we are given immortality, eating will have reduced importance. Blessings, Green Cochoa.
We can receive of heaven's light only as we are willing to be emptied of self. We can discern the character of God, and accept Christ by faith, only as we consent to the bringing into captivity of every thought to the obedience of Christ. And to all who do this, the Holy Spirit is given without measure. In Christ "dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. And ye are complete in Him." [Colossians 2:9, 10.] {GW 57.1} -- Ellen White.

P.S. mountain man, would we be fasting on the journey to heaven that takes seven days? I'm sure He would have some bag lunches for us on our way there, 'no time to stop grandpas waiting'.
I am leaning towards the thought that it takes seven days for our minds to wrap around the idea that we are really going to heaven with the King to see His Father's glory. Along the way there are things to understand for those who have not heard of the Sabbath, and things us Sabbath keepers need to know before we get there.
Again this is just my conclusion based off the evidence. Yeah, the idea that everyone needs to keep the Sabbath before entering heaven make sense.

Yes Mountain Man! We are heading to a wedding FEAST!
The reason to eat is for sustenance, to live forever. It is not glutinous to be fed by God with Manna or the fruit of the tree of life. He will feed us the fruit that never parishes.
There is absolutely no reason to fast after we are in Jesus' presence.
But there is plenty of reasons Jesus would take seven days for us to reach heaven. Mainly to prepare us for heaven. Those who have never heard of the Sabbath will need to be taught before entering the gates. Many people died in the faith before the truth was re-discovered since the dark ages.
I know Mrs White never wrote that we need to keep a Sabbath on another planet before entering heaven, it was presented by a Spirit filled pastor teaching his congregation and attributed to Mrs White, but it seems correct to me.
Search me oh God and know my heart, test me and know my anxious thoughts, see if there is any offensive way in me and lead me to the way everlasting. Amen

Off topic? Sorry, I thought that was the topic you were talking about. It is perfectly on topic since we are men of God looking for answers, nothing is off topic here. God bless you.

Or maybe Jesus is preparing men to have their first Sabbath in heaven in the New Jerusalem which would be very climactic. Cool, I like that thought even more.

We are going to see very powerful events brothers. WE ARE THE LAST GENERATIONS.

What do you mean by "we are the last generations"? How much time does that involve?

How long would an 84 year old man have left to live? The seventh King (Benedict 16) is already 84 years old. Satan comes at the end of his office.
We are being judged right now and the end of probation is coming fast and when Satan reveals himself as an angel of light the later rain falls immediately after. The confessed church is judged by then and the foolish will be left naked.
We are the last generations to live on this planet until it will be made new. There are still people alive who remember when the healing of the head wound began, all of this could have ended since that time.
We are the last generations.
