Laxatives should not be used just to lose weight. Any weight that is lost will be water-weight, and if you are not careful you can become seriously dehydrated. You won't lose or keep off any real weight (i.e fat) by simply using laxatives.

None - laxatives are a dangerous method for attempting weight loss. Cut your caloric intake, increase your caloric burn, or a combination of the two.
