Weight can be gained indirectly by starving yourself. Starving yourself increases the likelihood of binge eating so weight may be gained that way. The body also begins to regulate itself so that it loses weight more slowly and gains weight faster when you starve yourself. It is sort of like a protection system to stop the body from being damaged when it cannot get the fuel it needs.

First of all, the dangers of starving yourself can vary to DEATH!

But to answer your question (and may god bless you if your tearing your body apart by starving yourself) ;) Actually your body is mostly water, once you have no food or vitamins or minerals your water in your body (that is retained) makes you retain water. And also makes you feel dizzy, sick, very likely to get ill, or face death. So you do gain a little weight in the beginning, so it is stupid to even start in the first place!

My suggestion is get a wii, and wii fit (if you can afford it) it works FANTASTIC! I lost 4 pounds in the first week! my body is amazing, and I eat right! I skip the chips and eat a delicous ripe apple! Or you can walk your dog, or jog.

Yes, because when you starve your metabolism lowers which makes all the nutrients in your body low. And when you start eating again you will gain alot of weight that will be difficult to get rid of.

Does starving yourself really make you fatter?

Let me give you a brief idea of this, When you starve yourself, you get into "famine" mode. What ever you eat is going to storage.. So when you starve yourself the next thing you eat gets stored. You will burn up energy from your muscles. All you enegry will come from your muscles until all of its gone THEN it burns up fat. Muscle is 5x denser then fat. so therefore you will lose the "Number weight" . So you may go from 200 pounds to 150 pounds but you will look fatter! the fat will replace the lost muscles, so you will get the "look weight" but lose "number weight" in all, if you starve your self you will get lighter... but you will look fatter.. then once all that fat is gone, the next time you work out statics say you will most likely pass out due to heart failure because you made your heart that week... DONT STARVE YOURSELF, diet isn't the only key either! its a combination of diet and exercise...
