ive heard that when you eat too little calories, your body goes into starvation mode to slow down your metabolism so you conserve energy and this eventually leads to weight gain. how is it then that girls like lindsay lohan and nicole ritchie who obviously are/were food deprived loose all that weight?

you lose muscle first and only then fat.
those girls have relatively high body fat percentage and very, very low muscle mass - they look like walking skeletons, nothing healthy there...
Why would you think health professionals would lie about that? So you everybody would stay fat??? Nobody benefits from that...

Some of the matters I discovered from studying Yahoo! Answers is that in case you devour too few energy your frame will pass into hunger mode & you're going to get fats. If you doubt this simply appear at the entire fats anorexics. Also, endeavor will construct muscle and a pound of muscle weighs greater than a pound of fats. So do not endeavor or you're going to weigh extra. Lastly, bones are heavy, & on fats individuals they're very heavy. Possibly manner too heavy, making them weigh an excessive amount of. I have not heard of bones making individuals watching bloated, although. It might be the quandary. Or, that you've got significant muscle tissue you get while you endeavor. Anyway, that's the entire principal matters I can recollect.

Eventually once your body can't hold onto the cals anymore, you will start losing weight. it's not healthy though. It causes SO many health problems along the way. You lose bone mass and muscle mass. Your body literally has to eat itself up in order to stay alive. It's quite sad.

Although they have starved themselves and slowed their metabolism down, weight still will come off, but very, very slowly.
But these girls are also publicly known as they said it themselves, to use drugs such as Coccaine, Speed and such.
And have used them to aide their weight lose. The drugs speed up their metabolism so as they starve they loose weight at a fast rate.
This is why you can see them getting skinnier by the week.
Unhealthy to starve yourself. And then to take drugs as well is signing your death warrant.

Well, if you starve yourself TOO much (i.e. anorexia) then your body simply starts eating itself for nourishment.
