Lose Weight by Eating More
Is it possible to lose weight by eating more? Sure, if what you're eating more of are high-fiber foods. How is this possible? Simply put, fiber is a natural calorie absorption blocker.
A study performed by the USDA found that women who doubled their fiber intake from 12 to 24 grams per day absorbed 90 fewer calories. This equals losing 10 lbs. over the course of a year. Fiber keeps you full, thereby decreasing the total amount of calories consumed per day.
Fiber is extremely important to health and weight loss. So much so, the U.S. Food & Nutrition Board has set the first recommended daily intakes: men up to age 50 need 38 grams of fiber per day and women need 25 grams per day. To reach these recommendations, a minimum of 6 servings of fruits and veggies and 3 servings of whole grains are needed daily.
So where can you find fiber? Here is a list of foods that will help you reach the daily fiber intake recommendations:
Onions (1/3 cup = 1 gram)
Broccoli (1/2 cup = 2 grams)
Oranges (1 orange = 3 grams)
Flaxseed (1 tbsp. = 1 gram) ~ sprinkle on cereal or in yogurt
Asian pears (1 pear = 4 grams)
Almond butter (2 tbsp. = 2 grams)
Hot chocolate (1 cup = 3 grams)
Rye bread (1 slice = 2 grams)
Beans (1/2 cup = 6 grams)
Oregano (1 tsp. = 1 gram)
Basil (1 tsp. = 1 gram)
Light popcorn (1 bag = 8 grams)
Chickpeas (1/2 cup = 6 grams)
Frozen chopped spinach (1/2 cup = 2 grams)
Whole wheat pasta (1 cup = 5 grams)
Other foods high in fiber include: oat bran, oatmeal, flour or whole wheat tortillas, mushrooms, sesame-seed buns, low-sodium V8, sweet potatoes, wild rice, cauliflower, carrots, nuts, and berries.

Eat more frequent meals but in smaller portion.Drink a lot of water(1-2 liters a day). It makes your skin glow and helps “flush out” bad things in your body.Have a combination of grains, dairy, and fruit for each morning.Don’t put salt on your food and exercise at least 3 times a week.Eat a variety of foods. If you eat the same thing every single day, your body will feel restricted.Enjoy the things you eat. Food is your nourishment, not your enemy.Eat healthy snacks and veggies.Have one day where you can eat anything you like. That way you won’t feel left out on other stuff.

Well, it depends how much weight you're planning to lose.
IMPORTANT: Do NOT starve yourself!! That is the WORST way to try and lose weight. It's not even healthy for you!
Instead of trying to lose weight within three days by using a method such as starving yourself, you're going to have to do it slowly. Change your diet. :]
1. Eat only when you're hungry. But if you MUST have a snack, munch on fruit or vegetables.
2. Do not over eat. Even if you are hungry, do not eat so much food during a meal that it makes you feel like you're about to burst. Just eat enough until you're not hungry.
Hope this helps! :]

You need to eat small portions of food 3 times a day. Drinking water and exercising can help a lot. Keep a diary from what you do and what you eat can also help. That way, you will know what you are doing and that helps you improve better. Starving and skipping meals will not help. Eating small meals helps. By eating vegetables and fruits everyday.

In 3 days, you can lose maybe 1/3 of a pound if you cut out junk food and start exercising.
You didn't gain all the weight overnight and you won't lose it all overnight either.
