My stripper friend swears it does. She keeps a lot of baby wipes in her locker. She puts a lot of body spray on her backside too.

Yes, laxatives and water pills are an eating disorder - people eat and quickly take a laxative so their body does not absorb the calories they are taking in for the food. Please talk to your friend about getting some help - a trusted adult, school counselor. Don't let your friend die to be thin. Here are just some of the problems from doing this: You can upset your electrolyte balance. Electrolytes are minerals like sodium and potassium that are dissolved in the blood and other body fluids. They must be present in very specific amounts and exact ratios for proper functioning of nerves and muscles, including the heart muscle. Laxatives and enemas can upset this balance by flushing essential minerals out of the body, resulting in muscle cramps, tremors, spasms, irregular heartbeat, and in some cases cardiac arrest. The heart stops, and unless the person receives immediate emergency medical treatment, s/he dies. Laxatives and enemas remove needed fluid from the body. The resulting dehydration can lead to tremors, weakness, blurry vision, fainting spells, kidney damage, and in some cases death. Severe dehydration requires medical treatment. Drinking fluid may not hydrate cells and tissues quickly enough to prevent organ damage or death. Laxatives irritate intestinal nerve endings, which in turn stimulate muscle contractions that move the irritant through the gut and out of the body. After a while the nerve endings no longer respond to stimulation. The person must now take greater and greater amounts of laxatives to produce bowel movements. S/he has become laxative dependent and without artificial stimulation may not have any bowel movements at all. Laxatives and enemas strip away protective mucus that lines the colon, leaving it vulnerable to infection. Enemas can stretch the colon, which over time becomes a limp sack with no muscle tone. No longer can it generate the muscle contractions necessary to move fecal matter out of the body. Laxatives abusers seem to have more trouble with the following problems than do nonusers: irritable bowel syndrome (rectal pain, gas, and episodes of constipation and diarrhea) and bowel tumors (both benign and cancerous) PLEASE - HELP YOUR FRIEND - SHE IS ONLY 14 YEARS OLD AND YOU WANT HER TO BE THERE WHEN YOU GRADUATE HIGH SCHOOL. TELL SOMEONE IF SHE WON'T.

I've lost 5 kilos in my first week. It's my 10th day and I have included salad with some protein (eg. egg/ lean chicken) as you suggested. After 4 years of trying, the fat is finally coming off. It truly feels like magic!
Get started today!

Sounds pretty unhealthy. Laxatives weren't meant to help people lose weight. The baby wipes are probably to remove any toilet paper after going to the bathroom because its visible under the lights in the clubs.......FYI

weight as in the contents of the colon so it's only poop. it has absolutely no effect on body fat. abusing laxatives over an extended period of time will make the person dependent on them and they can't "go" with out laxatives. it's a very, very stupid thing to do

Your friend has bulemia. It can kill you! She keeps the spray and wipes because she has diarhea all the time and stinks! Not very attractive!
Eat right and exercise, there is no substitute.

I did this for a little bit...not religiously so I don't know. However, taking an excess amount of laxatives made my stomach hurt so bad, i don't recommend it
