Very dangerous. I know an idiot guy that was trying to lose weight for sports so he didn't eat anything and drank only water for 5 days. He was hospitalized when his heart nearly shutdown because of a bubble of liquid formed next to the heart.
If you want to lose weight, plan out your meals. It is not safe to starve yourself, but it is safe to only eat 1500 calories a day. I wouldn't go any lower. Even this has health risks after a couple weeks. If you do this, also take a multivitamin or you will risk malnourishment as well. Most people need at least 2200 calories a day to hold weight for women, five hundred more for most men.

It is very very dangerous. If you want to lose weight just eat fruits and vegetables with low fat dip for lunch, healthy cereal in the morning, and chicken or fish for supper. But remember starving yourself can lead to anorexia and kill you. Good Luck. (Oh, and Elitist much, you should not be telling somone how to starve themselves.)

Yes, it is dangerous. We live to eat and eat to live. If you're worried about gaining weight, you should consider watching your diet and not eat junk food or foods that contain fats. You should consider hitting the gym as well. You shouldn't hide that from your parents. You should just cut down on your food or lessen your meal portions! Just eat before you get full!! Good luck! =)

Starving yourself is EXTREMELY dangerous! If you are doing it, stop right now! It will NOT help you, only hinder you. I would advise you call childrens help phone or somthing like that if you can't talk to your parents about it. But you should tell them. This is very serious. Please don't do it and please stay healthy!

I think it's normal.
To hide it from your parents, either tell them you've eaten already, like during school.
Or..
If you do have to eat, spit it out when they're not paying attention.
I've never made myself throw up, because that would mess up my teeth.
