So how come I haven't eaten in 2days and had lost 1lb yesterday but checking my weight today I've gained that lb back!??!

Hmm tell me what is up with that because I am so frustrated right now. I have drank water for 2days straight and suddenly I haven't lost ANY weight?!!

Arghhh it sucks!

because if you dont eat but drink alot of water, youre body holds that water in the cells and you gain back water weight.

I'm not going to tell you it is unhealthy because actually, that is called fasting and it is good for the body to do so once in a while to clear your body of toxins and heavy pounds of clogged up undigested food in your colon, and shed excess water weight that's been retained by excess sodium.  

 However, you must weigh yourself at the same time every day and you must constitute some weight for the clothing you may be wearing, wet hair, etc. Also, if you weigh yourself after drinking loads of water and before you go pee, then that could be the water weight in your belly.


To clarify - fasting is okay for MAYBE a day. Not anymore. It can rid the body of unnecessary goods, but it should be done very infrequently and not for temporary weight loss.


It is actually recommended to do for three days if not done frequently.

Starving yourself the first couple of days, the weight just doesn't fall off of you at first. Drinking a ton of water; you may be full of water and if you go pee or something  maybe that will be a couple of pounds.

Anorexic girls are not just skinny - they're SICKLY. They're not eating what their body needs and they are literally killing themselves slowly.
some of 'em are hot

It's not hot when their shoulders and ribs are protruding out from their skin.

And it's definitely not hot when they day from malnutrition. STFU.


i said some of 'em

Then why are anorexic girls so skinny? Like disgustingly skinny

Because they starve themselves for a long time. And exercise a lot. Starving yourself for a while won't work.

AliciaVengeance Posted at 10:37 am on Jan. 8, 2009
Don't starve yourself. Work out and eat. Starving yourself will only make you gain weight and its not healthy
Maxxie Posted at 10:36 am on Jan. 8, 2009
To be absolutely frank, only idiots starve themselves to ''lose'' weight.

The moment you start eating again you'll be gaining the weight you lost multiple times. Plus you'll be damaging your body, is it worth the effort? No. Educate yourself how to lose weight in a proper healthy manner with exercise and healthy food.

Because they are starving themselves, do you really expect them to lead full lives?
