Does throwing up your food make your stomach flatter?

[Anonymous]

I dont want to lose weight, I just want to make my stomach skinny and get abs.

I mean obviously it can do. You will lose weight regularly throwing up food which will make your stomach flatter but here are the problems that could happen doing that

* Esophageal problems
* Vocal chord damage
* Stomach ulcers
* Osteoporosis
* Hair loss
* Digestive problems
* Decreased body temperature
* Irregular heart beat
* Elimination problems
* Dental Damage
* Organ damage
* Vitamin and mineral deficiencies
* Enlarged salivary glands
* Dry skin
* Decreased bone density
* Menstrual dysfunction
* Hormone irregularities
* Insomnia
* Low red blood cell levels
* Weak muscles
* Immune system damage

Also your never gonna get abs by just throwing up food to get abs your going to have to do regular exercises e. g. crunches and squats but that will also give a flatter stomach making the throwing up pointless. If you need help here's a very long read but goes through exercises to work on abs and proper diet to get the best results in the best time.

no thats not a healthy way to loose weight! You're kidneys and other organs can take a serious unpreparable damage from this if you do it often. Just try some cardio sport if you are not happy with you're stomach and you will see results in a few weeks (when you work out 1h ,3times a week)

Never, and I mean ever do that to yourself. It's called bulimia and it's a disease that has the power to kill you. I used to have I was younger and it didn't help me. In fact, it ruined me. The side effects terrified me. I still haven't fully recovered emotionally and it's been 3 years since I stopped. I used to gag myself and throw up every night after dinner. It came to the point where when I finally stopped and tried to fix my life, every time I ate my body would naturally try to push the food out of it. Abs come from hard work and dedication. The word skinny makes me sick. If you want to look slim then you have to eat healthy and take care of yourself. Throwing up your food will only destroy you from the inside.

No. There is a better way to get a flat stomach. Stop eating sweets and bread. Eat eggs in the morning, a lot of fruits during the day, drink water and light yoghurt. Eat meat but without bread. If you wanna eat something in the night, don't eat fruits. Eat vegetables or soup. Walk a lot, you don't have to run. And don't give up. I had a perfect shape because i gave up sweets and bread for 3 months. Imagine your perfect body every day and whenever you want to eat something sweet, take some fruit and look at the photo of someone with flat stomach and say: I can do that too. That was my motivation.

I wouldn't recommend it.

Purging can quickly turn into bulimia, which can lead to the loss of hair, teeth, overall health, damage to the vocal cords, stomach lining, you can begin growing patches of peach fuzz over your body, you can lose your hair, and a lot more.

If you want to flatten your stomach you should try some healthier alternatives:

Ab workouts (Youtube is filled with them)

Cranberry tea

Cinnamon

Regular bowel movements (which can be encouraged by a healthy diet containing a healthy amount of fiber)

Getting enough water.

Love don't you dare start making yourself throw up! It'll become a habit and it'll ruin you:( and before you think about getting abs it's not worth all that pain for them. You're perfect the way you are. I've heard from many guys they prefer girls a little fat on them rather than abs. My guy friend actually said him and his friends think abs aren't attractive on girls. I'm not saying no guy will find it attractive but if you want abs just to please some guy you like don't do it love. I promise you you'll regret making yourself throw up :(

[tifftaff01]

lol that's one of the weirdest question I've ever seen. But seriously, no don't do that. It's a dumb reason. Besides, all those models that are anorexic just get their ribs to show. It's just disgusting and off putting. I seriously doubt you'd get abs from throwing up your food. Please don't waste your time

[jadexo]

Just figure out a basic work out plan and a simple diet to stick to, surely going for a twenty minute jog every now and then is easier and much less disgusting than forcing yourself to throw up

[9mfeo]

No. Don't do that. That's really unhealthy. The only thing that bulimia gives you is dehydration and broken teeth.

[daintydollface]

Nah, it won't work - look into ways of toning your stomach... excersise and healthy eating sounds cliche but it's the best way to go about it...

[CrazynKinky]

Eat healthy and work out. Literally the only way. Your body will eat itself when it's hungry so you will end up looking sick and ugly

[Phoenix98]

That's extremely unhealthy and can lead to quite a few health problems, if you want a skinnier stomach and abs then eat healthy and exercise. Do it the hard way and the right way and work for it.

[ConsultantIsBack]

Must be after the holidays, so many Gag questions like this man lol about not eating to get fit, etc.

[Phoenix98]

@ConsultantIsBack Yeah tell me about it, and the sad thing is they all want to take the easy route, a route that is incredibly bad for them *shakes head* so many stereotypes and ignorance regarding fitness when it comes to the general population.

[ConsultantIsBack]

Yep exactly. "can i starve myself for a week and look like paige hathway for the rest of my life?" umm, no. lol

[Phoenix98]

@ConsultantIsBack Yeah pretty ridiculous I mean you didn't just stop eating then wake up the next morning looking like you did, it took a lot of effort, I swear they really should cover this kind of stuff in health class in schools since it's mostly highschool and college students who ask this kind of stuff.

[AzureGirl]

No. Work out and eat well. Don't make yourself puke.

[Anonymous]

No. Probably opposite. Malnourishment can lead to a protruding, not flat stomach.

If you want abs, you need to eat and train like an athlete. Starving people don't have sic packs.

[itsallover]

I'm telling you, DO NOT do this. You'll mess your body and mind up drastically.

[mutedaisy]

It makes your teeth weaker, your skin drier and your hair brittle.

[Anonymous]

No. It make's you more bloated and gain weight, plus get rotten teeth and barf breathe even after brushing. DO NOT DO IT.

[meatballs21]

Abs are muscle. You need the nutrients from the food you're planning on barfing up to build muscle.

[Anonymous]

No, however throwing up will damage your throat as your stomach acid eats away at the lining in your esophagus.

[luvstoned4him]

Ewww gross

plus I won't encourage you to try.

[Yellow_]

Nope
I don't know who came up with that idea.

[Jayded1]

haha no. It doesn't work that way.

[Hollywood-Glam]

It's a bad idea, bulimia is unhealthy.

[Jared____]

Don't no don't it's bad don't seriously don't

[BrownBoyBrownies]

See, this is how anorexia nervosa starts.

[Zendrya]
