Yes. By starving yourself you will lose weight. Please give your body the respect it deserves. You breathe, your heart pumps, your kidneys filter your blood and your food is digested - and you don't even have to think about it! Your body is your best of all friends in this world. If you want to lose weight, be good to your body and go on a healthy diet. It will pay you back with good health. Crash diets and starvation harm your body and actually cause you to gain more weight when they are over due to survival instincts that begin when you are starving yourself. THis can have a harmful effect on your brain and body organs, you can faint, for the vanity of fitting into a dress or losing a few pounds you can end up in hospital, looking like a complete fool. So yes, you can lose weight by starving, but you can also lose a lot more. Please, take care of yourself. You are more important than what anyone else says or thinks.
My experience has been yes. If you do not eat regularly and only eat say once a day, your body goes into "starvation mode". What this means is your brain will tell your body to store any and everything you eat. it will create fatty tissue to store whatever you eat to use during the day for energy. If you are trying to lose weight, you will lose more weight faster if you eat 5 to 6 small healthy meals a day. Cut out sodas and juices, no white bread, rice or potatoes. eat leafy vegetables, lean meats, and lots of water.
You probably won't have much success in losing weight quickly by starving yourself. Your body goes into what is a starvation mode, and holds on to all the nutrients in the fat that you have burning it slowly- so it will take time and probably be painful. As you may have seen in on tv, people in other contries and thin and frail and that's because they starve, due to lack of food. You can lose weight, that is true. But you could also kill yourself- or cause severe health problems. Cutting down on portions and eating healthier food is a much better approach. in stead of eating go for a walk or some type of exercise
All of it. Starvation can lead to death, even though many other people have survived going without food for 30 days. If you are desperate to lose weight, start using your body. Go swimming as often as you can, ride your bicycle everywhere, dig ditches, climb hills, BURN CALORIES. Starving yourself can lead to permanent damage to your nervous system, major organs, and teeth. If you think that you will be more attractive if you lose a lot a of weight, remember that you will be so weak that you cannot walk, sit up, or carry out a conversation. And you are likely to end up in the hospital, which is not cheap. People used to be thin because they didn't eat every time they turned around, and they had to work hard to survive. Try carrying a one gallon bucket of water 100 yards. Now, imagine doing that 20 or 30 times a day, every day. Don't eat until you are stuffed, don't worry about cleaning your plate, eat slowly, and when you feel full, stop. If you eat too fast, your body does not have a chance to tell you that it is full before you have overfilled it. Avoid sugary treats and colas, fast food, and greasy chips. Peanut butter and jelly on whole wheat bread is a pretty good meal, along with some low-salt corn tortilla chips. Drink water with a meal, not milk, cola, or fruit juice.
yes, but you should definetly not try. People have died from starvation because they thought they were"fat". A better way to lose weight is by eating a healthy diet, and take a walk 1-2 times a day.
Eat only one meal a day... this meal should consist of protein (like tofu) and no grains (like bread.) If you are not hungry don't eat anything.
2nd Answer:
Not true. Your brain will interpret any starving as an emergency, and will call for maximum hunger and eating to "save your life", or so it thinks. You will then gain weight.
Secondly, near-starving harms your muscles, including your heart muscle. DO NOT EVER go on a 'starvation' diet without exercising vigourously for an hour each day. (To strengthen your muscles, including the heart muscles.)
Yes, you definitely can. But if you continually starve yourself your body will store it's own fat on you because it's starving. It's very unhealthy. Not a good way to go. You can lose the weight but it wont stay off.
If you literally starve yourself, you could have long term health affects, it is not a good way to lose weight. A reasonable diet should help you lose 8 to ten pounds the first month, slowing down at that point. Consult a physician for help in determining what the best option for you is.

Starving yourself to lose weight is never a good idea. That is a sign of the dangerous and potentially deadly eating disorder known as anorexia nervosa. Starving will also lead to almost-immediate weight gain as soon as you return to normal eating again. Instead, proper dieting and exercise is always the best way to lose weight and to keep the weight off.
This depends on how severe their diet restrictions are. They can loose between 5-14 lbs a week!
No. Starving yourself to lose weight is not safe, nor is it effective in the long term,for weight loss.
starving yourself for weeks
It depends on your metabolism, but it's extremely unhealthy. For some people, it works but losing weight by starving yourself is the only "positive" out of it. There are many negatives to this concept. In fact, you can start to lose hair, develop dry skin, irregular heart beats, and worse.
Not a significant amount, and it probably won't last.
