No. If you're not taking in ANY food, the only "fuel" for your body is your body fat. You lose weight. If you don't eat for a logn time, your body tries to "conserve" fat and your metabolism slows down, so you burn less and less calories. In time, your metabolism can get so slow that if you go back to eating "normal", you'll gain a lot of weight. But just plain stopping eating will make you lose weight. Just dieting healthily and exercising is a MUCH better way to lose, though

not exactly true. what happens is if you dont eat for a while your body goes into "survival mode" so when you do start eating you're body will immediately store wat you eat not allowing you to burn it off because its not sure when you will eat again.
