Starving does NOT make you hold onto fat. A starvation diet will use up your body's store of fat, known as adipose tissue. Once the stores are exhausted, the body starts metabolizing muscle tissue -- a very serious, unhealthy condition. When your body goes into "starvation mode," your metabolism slows down in an attempt to conserve energy and your body's fuel stores. This is erroneously thought of as "holding onto fat." But that is like saying your car holds onto gasoline when driving slowly. Clearly, that is preposterous. You may get better mileage at 55 mph than 90, but you're still burning gas, albeit more slowly.
What else can I help you with?
Can starving yourself cause you to gain weight after you stop starving yourself?

How do anorexics get so thin if starving make you hold on to fat?
Anorexics do not eat anything or very little for long periods of time, so eventually the body will burn up all of its fat storage, which is the preferred energy source. After burning up all the fat, it will turn to eating up muscle because protein is a backup source of energy. So if no new energy (a.k.a food) is being consumed then the body is not gaining anything new to work off.
What will happen if you dont eat for a week?
The body can't survive too long without food or water. Starving yourself will only cause malnourishment, fatigue, dizziness, fainting spells, weakness and that's not even half of it. If you want to loose weight, starving yourself won't work. If you starve yourself for a week and then eat again, the body will hold onto that food, not knowing when it will get fed again and it will be even harder to burn that off.
Is starving yourself good or bad and in what why are they good or bad?
Bad. By eating, yes, your body does indeed store fat, but when you don't eat, your body thinks it is in danger of starvation and when you do eat, your body holds dear to every single little piece of energy it can get a hold of. This will make you grow "larger." It will store the fat. Really, if you want to lose weight, eat and exercise. Starving yourself will make your body dysfunctional. Eat up!
