At first, you will lose weight. However, the weight lost is just fluid. After a while, if your body doesn't get any food, it will go into starvation mode and your metabolism will slow down to conserve energy. Then the weight won't come off as easily.

Whoever said if you stopped eating you'd gain weight are ignoramous'. It's so untrue. What anorexic person is overweight? You will lose weight. I lost 50lbs in 2 months doing this and drinking only juice and eating an occasional fruit. But it's not the healthy way to do it either. Because once you return to your normal eating patterns you will gain the weight back. So eat a well portioned meal of the right foods and exercise and you can keep it off for good. Without straving. Good Luck!

Everyone says you will lose weight then gain but thats not quite true. I think you will lose some, gain some, then lose it all eventually, but if you start eating alot then you will get really fat.... so its not a good idea to do that.

If you don't eat you will lose weight, but the weight you will lose will be mostly water and muscle. When your body goes into starvation mode it greedily hangs on to every last bit of body fat you have and starts to metabolize the tissue that requires the most energy to maintain -- MUSCLE. So starvation diets are not good for people who want to lose weight. How many people do you know who want to lose weight but keep their unsightly flab?

when you don't eat, your body slows down and thinks your starving and doesn't burn calories as easy so you'll actually have to work out twice as hard to burn the calories you consumed..so trust me eat!
