Losing weight?

Question

I know it's unhealthy, but does fasting help you lose weight. I know about the health effects, but does it??

Answer 1

try the low carb diet. no breads, rice, corn, potatos, no sweets, chips. Try to lower your suga intake. The weight will fall off. I have lost 30 lbs in two months. It works you just have to stay focus.

Answer 2

it is quick but severley dangerous--just dont do it, if losing some pounds of any description and inches is what you want then I would suggest you use a diet that is all natural and is rich in protein and vitamins, which is what the FDA recommends. I used a protein based diet after a friend who had lost a lot of weight with this recommended it to me. All the way through you feel great and energized, you also get great coaching and support along the way. The people are very friendly and gave me lots of great advice. I needed to lose 40 pounds and I did so with no problems. The products really work and you feel great whilst losing weight. I lost all my weight in less than four months and they have helped me to keep it off. I would definitely recommend using them. My sister did this also and lost 76 pounds in five months (She works out, I don’t). There is no pressure and they will even send you a load of free samples so you can try before you buy. The samples were the thing that initially convinced me that this was the right diet for me. You also a get a free complete health consultation with the samples, I just paid the postage and handling, but for what I got it was well worth it. You have to go to www.myhealthabc.net to register your details to get the free samples and the free advice etc and then they just call you up and ask you a few questions. It was so easy. Their main site is www.myhealthabcmall.com and you can see all the products and packages and order from their. Its nice to have contact with real people who care about you losing weight and improving your health. I am in better health now than I have ever been thanks to these products and I know that I will continue to keep the weight off with the help I have received. I hope this helps.

Fasting is a horrible way to lose weight.
Im NOT saying it will help you lose weight,
but I'm saying fasting with the reason to lose
weight is bad.

If you want to lose weight, the 3 main goals are:
1)EAT HEALTHY!!! I cannot stress enough that if you eat healthy, you'll feel good about yourself and naturally lose weight. For example: Instead of pizza -- go for a turkey sandwich or sub, instead of soda or a juice pack --go for water, milk, or orange juice, instead of cookies-- go for fig newtons or cereal (something else that's sweet). YOu can still eat cookies and desserts. Just eat them in moderation.
2)Drink WATER! Water is very healthy-- it washes out the "dirty" stuff in your body and keeps it hydrated. For some reason, drinking water aids losing weight. Aim for at lealst 4-6 8 oz glasses a day.
3)EXERCISE! This doesnt mean you have to go gym and work out for 2 hours. Exercise can be simple like lifting some 5 lb. weights or jogging around your neighborhood or house. Start by doing exercise at least 3 x's a week and gradually increase.

GOOD LUCK ON LOSING WEIGHT if you need to!

Answer 4

Fasting won't help because your body will think it's being deprived and increase storage of body-fat and make you look bloated. If you want to fast, do it right. Never fast at breakfast time. Studies have shown that women who eat breakfast consume less calories during the day. Fast either lunch or dinner, not both. Eat this :

Breakfast :

An omelet w/ cheese and jalapenos

or

Strawberry banana smoothie

or

Muffin parfait (crumbled muffin w/ yogurt and strawberries/berries)

Basically berries, eggs, protein and veggies with help with weight loss. Don't skip meals and exercise @ least 30 minutes a day. It's hard @ first but over time you'll learn to love yourself enough to not starve yourself girl !

GOOD LUCK !

Answer 5

Exercise everyday like jogging around the block
Skip meals. Eat 2 times per day than 3 times per day
Dont eat until you're full
Eat fruits at night if your hungry.
Drinks lots of water and stop all the fast food and chocolate.
There are more tips and info.
there's a video on success fitness too.

Answer 6

Only for a day or two then it has the opposite effect your body goes into starvation mode, slows metabolism and as soon as you start eating again it turns into fat much faster and you gain all you weight back and then some.

Answer 9

It does if you do it over a long period of time, but don't risk it because if you start eating afterwaards, then all the fat catches up and it gets clogged. I say, dont become anorexic, becaus eonce you start eating your metabloism is slow because it isn't working.

Answer 10

not really because after you fast you get really hungry then pig out. and then you gain weight back again. eat less and slowly but don't stop eating.
