If you dont eat for a week can you drop a dress size?

If you don't eat for a week you will probably just drop.


Mental Patient 29
I can tell you're an overweight girl who's OBSESSED with losing weight. Don't even talk about "not eating for a week" and if you're trying to be cool also it makes you look stupid...because you will probably die or go to the ER and faint if you do that. Instead of being to lazy to even eat, try being like everyone else and going to the gym!!

Probably but you will have no energy to go out and buy the dress.....

You can just eat sensibly all week and drop the same weight, fruit musli yoghurt etc

This sounds ridiculous. Who in their right mind wouldn't eat for a week? Eat smaller portions 5 or 6 times a day - eat healthy - don't snack at night. Never mind, don't do this, you'll be dead in a week.

Ohhhh yes but starving yourself aint the answer drink lots of water when i want to lose weight for that all important date i eat noodles for a solid week with some fresh veg in them .Just remember that this can have massive implications in later life if you dont eat correctly

Yes but you would quickly gain the weight back

If you don't eat for a week, I think you can expect that you will most likely faint, have terrific headaches, and who knows what else. So eat something--like non-fat yogurt with artificial sweetener, apples, carrots, a lot of steamed vegetables, vegetable soup, drink a lot of water, and move more. Don't eat beef, but you can probably have some grilled chicken. Good luck, but don't go too crazy.


luvleeshaz
yes proberly but once you eat again you will put it back on


lizarddd
Yes and you'd be pretty ill with it, I should know as this happened to me back at Easter. I couldnt eat for a week due to chronic tonsilitis - throat was too painful - I lost over a stone and almost two dress sizes within a week, I also collapsed twice and ended up in casualty as I was so weak. Dont even think about not eating, that is NOT the way to lose weight, slow and steady is the answer and you will be more likely to keep the weight off

Your body might go into starvation mode if you do that and you won't lose more then a few pounds or nothing at all. Not to mention, you'll feel crabby and tired. Just do it the healthy way eat sensibility and exercise its not that hard.

Sounds like you are going to some high shindig and need to fit back into a dress you haven't worn for ages. You have one week to do it. Time for another outfit, dear.


Evie
Not a sensible thing to do. You need to eat to sustain yourself - eat healthy foods and you will loose weight sensibly.

Sure, in your hospital bed.


Mr Cynical
very likely but not good for you. eating smaller amounts is better and trying different exercises , body wraps etc


Kels

do not do that!
first of all it is not healthy!
The best thing for you to do to lose a few pounds quickly is eat small healthy meals and snacks and drink a TON of water.
YOu should lose a few pounds in water weight.

Probably and you'll be unhealthy etc..........

The best thing is to eat more portions (of healthy food obviously) more often - the aim being to increase your metabolism.

i don't know about a week, but if you don't eat for an certain amount of time you will actually start looking fatter. also, if you don't eat for longer than that, your body will actually start digesting your organs and you can die. be careful. if you want to lose weight, go to a gym and eat things like salad and healthy food like that.


Zebrafreak
Yes, but if you want to u would problely get really sick and die. So work out and eat heathy foods that is a better way to drop a dress size.


grayness18
i dont think so - when you dont eat your body thinks that you are starving and so it keeps your body fats from being used for energy

probably but there is a greater chance of dying.


dickn2000
YES! You can also drop dead!


red devil
It could make you drop dead?


the_slimreaper
Rating
Yes.

The downside is that buy day 3 you'll be unable to sleep due to the pains in your stomach. You'll also have to stop driving as you'll be delirious by then as well.

Don't forget that the minute you eat anything you'll regain the weight, plus more. Your body will think 'I'd better store EVERYTHING she eats as fat from now on as there's obviously a big risk of food shortages round here'.

It's really not worth it.


MEL
MOST LIKELY NOT. FOR SOME REASON WHEN YOU STARVE YOUR SELF YOUR BODY HANGS ON TO WHAT ITS GOT. ITS PROTECTING ITS SELF FROM STARVING. A GOOD WAY TO LOOSE SOME WEIGHT FAST IS TO EAT FOOD THAT GIVE YOU DIARRIAH LIKE FRUIT AND THAN ADD STUFF THAT DOESNT HAVE MUCH OF ANYTHING LIKE CUCUMBERS AND CELERY. YOU MAY NOT LOOSE A DRESS SIZE BUT YOU WILL LOOSE SOME WEIGHT.


Carmen
Yes, but it is obviously unhealthy, plus you will gain all that weight back once you resume your regular eating habits, so it's a temporary fix. Instead, why don't you buy a body shaper, spanx.com has the best quality body shapers worn by celebrities and affordable for most budgets. You can visually look slimmer by one dress size just by wearing it underneath any garnment. Before you starve yourself, check out their website.


cigaro19
I think so yes. But it would be extremely hard not to eat at all for a wek. Eating celery and cucumber would have the same effect

Yes, you will lose weight and no you will not drop dead. What you will be doing is fasting. It is healthy to fast. Read the Bible. If you are obesed, you can fast up to 30 days. Fast in private because people will say things that bring fear and fear is not from God.


*~'~'Claire~'~'*
nope i tried it i tried it for two weeks then i fainted everytime I stood up so then i started eating again. I tried it again and the same thing happend. The only thing it does is make you dizzy and tired and moody.


writetowright@btopenworld.com
why not eat as normal & just drop your dress?


yvonne
NO!!! thats not going to help......i wanted to loose weight cuz im im gymnastics and i wanted to be thiner so i did stop eating. first it was a week the a month and now i bearly eat its not cool! just try a diet...or else u can go anorexic or bulimic!
