LOL You'll lose your mind, most likely.
It's impossible for the body to be able to sustain running, push ups and squats and situps if you only drink water. You'd either pass out or throw up because you've spiraled into hypoglycemia. That's very dangerous.
If you want to lose pounds, you need to add muscle... because muscle burns fat. An no, you won't turn into a body builder with gross muscles if you lift weights.
The best way to lose weight is to eat healthy WHILE you do cardio and other exercises. Things like lots of protein... which make you feel full, but the protein your body doesn't use to repair your muscles, usually turns into your hair or fingernails. That's why when you eat a lot of protein, your hair and nails grows super fast.
Also, lots and lots of veggies. Veggies don't make you gain weight.
Soda makes you gain weight. Boxed and prepackaged food make you gain weight.
The worst thing you could do is starve your body, because it will literally start to eat itself by breaking down your muscles, kidneys and your brain. It also kicks in to this "starvation mode" which makes your metabolism slow WAAAAYYYY down making it even harder to lose weight.
Just eat healthy and lift weights... and maybe do a salt water flush to "flush out" the pounds of poo that are likely sitting in your bowels. I did one the other week and my tummy flattened out and I lost close to a pound.
Losing weight doesn't happen in a week; but if you keep it up, you'll notice a huge difference in about 4 weeks... then 12... then after about 6 months you'll be rocking a whole new body! You need to give yourself a realistic timeline. A week is not realistic... or healthy.
Um honey, I get the urge as a teen as well to lose weight, but i've never thought of not eating. Let me break it down to you, basically not eating will kill you, you're not giving your body any nutrients, ANY. And not eating food will make you fatter, because it sounds possible now but you're going to get so hungry you're going to binge and eat twice as much food.
Exercise sounds great, its good for you, so stick with the exercise.
But if you want to lose weight: stop eating processed foods, junk food, fried food, and sugar. Fill your diet with complex carbohydrates (found in fruits & veggies), I would stay away from dairy, and eat grilled or boiled meat, and you should only season that with lemon, salt, or garlic, not anything too heavy. Drink at least 8 cups of water a day (but don't drink too much), and don't go overboard with the fruits as they contain a lot of natural sugars, which aren't bad for you at all (your body knows how to digest them unlike processed things with sugar), but some fruits if you eat them excessively could cause weight gain (pretty sure it's barely anything though). And you shouldn't be losing too much a day/week.. weight loss takes time and patience, but sticking with a diet plan and an exercise plan (write one down, seriously, or else you'll forget and it won't seem as much of a priority) you'll see results very quickly. Just keep it up, and DO NOT starve yourself!!
But I don't eat unhealthy food, I already hardly eat anything
For fruits, eat them as snacks, but not as meals. Once again, with the foods I gave you, not only you'll lose weight (with exercising) because the foods I listed aren't high in calories, but you'll be treating your body with wonderful proteins, nutrients, vitamins, etc. You'll be thinner and most importantly healthy. But don't get too wrapped up in how much weight you lose. I doubt you even need to lose weight. Have fun! :)) And yeah, make a weekly plan for what to eat and what exercises to do each day and keep it up and don't quit.
I need to lose like 20 pounds. I'm overweight 😞
But thanks for the help
Well to lose weight you have to be losing more calories than you are eating, we already lose calories in ways we don't know it, our body naturally does. So you have to exercise to burn even more calories and eat foods low in calories so there's not a lot to burn off..
And whats your weight & height?
I'm 5'2 and weigh 140 pounds
Well i'm 5'5 and 114, my height is due to genetics but I eat just like I told you and i'm fit and thin, but you're healthy judging by your weight and height. I totally recommend seeing a nutritionist, he or she will help you set up an eating plan (possibly exercise plan too) to keep you thin and fit (because you don't want legs and arms that look like twigs and you certainly don't want your bones sticking out). So yeah, see a nutritionist for professional help on what foods to eat and what exercises to do to lose weight and still be healthy, but of course ask your mom or dad first.
Just dont do it. it is extremely unhealthy for you and all you will lose is fluids not actual fat. Losing weight is dedication over a longer period of time. You need te eat healthier and exercise more. And dont underestimate the amount of calouries in soda and and alcohol. Just switch too water and that alone will make a big difference.
I don't drink alcohol and haven't had pop in months
I hardly eat anything. It's not like I'm eating unhealthy, I eat eggs and that's literally it and I don't eat many of them
I'm overweight. I'm 5'2 and I weigh 140 pounds
I eat one meal a day sometimes two. I never eat before I go to bed
Then you either have a medical issue which is pretty unlikely. Or you are lying to yourself, you should be completely emaciated if you really are doing what you are telling me. But hey i am just some guy on the internet and if you really do what you are telling me i would go see a doctor. You could have some problems with the hormones coming from your thyroid.
I can promise you, that I'm not skinny. And I am doing everything I said I am. I can't lose weight
Yup pretty much, sometimes once a week I'll eat some of the actual dinner meal
Nope not on the pill
It's not really stable. In 2 months I've gained over 20 pounds and I'm not eating unhealthy or anything. I don't know what to do
The only thing you will loose is your life noob. Come back when your good OP. Where the fu k did you read that working out without eating was a good idea?
So i should just not exercise then?
"noob"
lmfao

If you don't eat at all, you probably won't lose much weight. Your body will go into starvation mode, retaining as much water as it can, slowing all metabolic processes as well.
Working out while eating a diet that's low in processed foods, high in fibre as well as protein is best. That way your body will be adequately powered, resulting in ideal conditions for a strong metabolism. The easier you make it for your body to build muscle is also good, as muscle has a significantly higher metabolic rate than fat so you'll be technically burning calories even when sitting down.
a lot. it takes about 3,600 more calories than consumed to lose a pound. it would be a lot. And then it will all come back as your body will be in starvation mode and conserving all the fat. you'll initially lose water weight and burn muscle, and then after you start eating again, probably right after a purge to get all the nurtients back, it will work extra hard to regain all the fat it lost. this is why ccrash diets dont usually work, and the key to weight loss is gradual, healthy calorie restriction. im not just sdaying this for your safety, although that plays a large factor in it, because if you don't eat for a large period of time and then go straight back into eating, you might have a huge problem on your hands because your intestines will be in a sort of "hibernation" so to speak, you might have to go to the hospital, and you'll burn yourself out by just doing normal tasks like walking from room to room, let alone exercise, but also its just not an effective weight loss method.
infarct many people taking this route end up gaining a bit of weight when its all over. just eat healthy and the pounds will come off.
Maybe Your Strength if you Become Too Weak to Even... Do 30 mins of running, 75 push-ups, 50 squats and 100 situps.
You won't have the Strength from being Malnourished to lift a Finger.
Do it Right with Yes, Exercise But put yourself on a Healthy, Well balanced Light Diet so you can do It... Right Like.
Good luck. xx
I can't afford to be on a healthy diet, healthy food is all to expensive
Less then if you ate protein and vegetables while doing the same.
It's also dangerous.
You would also be burning lean muscle mass, so you'd regain more weight than you lost after, but it would be fat and look worse.
There is no intelligent reason to do what you suggest, no matter how aggressive your weight loss goals are.
How old are you?
17
...
What's your height and weight?
Do you prepare your own food, or can you?
I'm 5'2 and weigh 140 pounds.
No and I can't prepare my own food
What do you currently eat for breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks? what sorts of things? What other options are available?
I eat eggs usually once a day sometimes twice and once a week I will eat the proper supper meal.
That's how you've been eating for a while?
Ya for like 3 months
So here's the thing.
You need to eat more.
You have completely fucked your metabolism. No i can't put it nicer. You don't eat enough, your body has likely slowed it's metabolic systems way the hell down, and ripped out muscle tone whereever it could. That's dangerous. It also further crushes your metabolism. You eat less? Your body will try to shut down even more. It's clinging to any fat it has for deal life because it thinks there's a famine.
There is no fast way for you to lose fat at this point.
What should you do? Eat three meals a day, protein carbs and fat at each one, either start lifting heavy weights or learn to do a serious bodyweight resistance workout, throw out your scale, and try to 'tone up' and get stronger over the next few months.
You want to be low fat? Look at the really low fat people here: consultantisback, polocrew etc. You may not want to lift as long and hard as them, but they have loooooow body fat. Ask them how much they eat.
You'll never bulk up like them, but you want to lose weight, you need to copy them more.
Ok thanks you
Not trying to beat you up. We're on your side, i want you to be successful. To do that you need to spend a chunk of time on revving up your metabolism as your primary goal. That means better energy systems, and rebuilding lean mass you lost (or never had much of).
It doesn't matter because you'll pot all that weight back on again as soon as you start eating.
When you stop eating your body goes into survival mode so when ou start eating again it thinks that that'll be your last meal so it just stores all that fat.
Pound is equal to about 3500 calories.
At your rate, you will burn maybe 2000 a dayish.
You can do the math at first, but as you continue this diet, your metabolism will go in your boots and those calories lost per day will decrease. Additionally, it will trash your energy levels and body repair speeds.
If you do the diet, add some greens and protiens. Even something like soy milk will work for awhile.
All that being said, im no expert, so grain of salt
You probably won't even be able to run, do push ups etc. YOU Need food in order to make your body work, so you might as well eat, when you eat it actually helps burn calories when you work out. You need to be eating multiple times a day to get a fast metabolism. Don't be an idiot
When you dont eat your body triggers the panic button and starts storing fat for energy cause your not giving it carbs and calories to burn. You will not lose anything noticable in a week it will take time but with proper diet and exercise you will see results in 2 months
I don't think you will day. It's called fasting. There's been studies where people don't eat for weeks to see the long term effects. But water is essential.
I don't think at all that it's the best or healthiest way to lose weight because it will probably lead to some bad binges and maybe yo yo dieting. IF you want to get in shape go to muscleforlife. com. No I'm not sponsored they just changed my life through their information.
And you will feel like absolute shit if you go through with this. Food gives you energy and helps you think. The longest I've gone without eating was 36 hours and I was feeling like my brain couldn't even figure out how much 2+2 equals. Unfortunately getting in shape is one of those things where it takes time. It's about changing your lifestyle.
Is this question serious? Do you have any idea how dangerous that is?
You need to eat more vegetables and fruits and you do have to workout but not so much.
When you have diet your body slowly gets used to that diet. And if you start eating again your body gets confused and you will only gain weight instead of losing it.
Ud achieve total muscle failure with no healthy or good results
Do u know any other quick ways to lose 20 pounds really quick?
I can loose 6 just now just syringing out my urine but it won't be healthy cos it'd be just water weight. I can loose 20 in month too and that won't be healthy neither, Altho I can loose 8 in month and look way better than when I loose 20 in month cos it'd tone me up and it would be mostly fats
Your mental stability and your health. Do not fucking do this.
A lb or two. Don't do it. Your body will hold onto a lot of fat because you're starving your body of energy and you'll feel AWFUL. It's impossible to do school work when you do't eat. JUST DON'T DO IT. Eat.
Zero because there is no way in hell you're actually going to commit to that
You'll end up getting super hungry and then binging on unhealthy foods and gaining everything back. You need to eat. Eat healthy foods so that you will actually have the energy to do a hard workout.
Nothing you'll loose water weight, it's not about the number it's about the way you look. Try the raw till 4 diet by freelee the banana girl I lost 12 pounds in 2 weeks while eating more than ever and feeling better about myself than I ever did
That's called a liquid diet im not sure how much but it would be a lot you just HAVE TO STAY HYDRATED
Ok thanks bro
Np I hope you do well 👌👌👌 you getting ready for summer
No not really. Just trying to fit into some of my clothes again
Lol same here the only thing im trying to get ready for summer to im staring my diet tomorrow
Good luck bro, I gave up on my other diets
I wish we could talk further but we're both anonymous lol
Make urself not anon for a minute and then I'll message you
I don't know lol i will see are you still here
Ya I am
How about you come from annoums real quick and i message you
you will loose like 2 or 3 kg of muscle and like you don't eat any food your body will keep all the flab. You will also gain a lot of weight if you eat anything after. I know it, I was doing it last years
So u wanna become anorexic.
That kills people.
Just a lot thinner than I am
"Just a lot thinner than I am"
Have you seen the videos, girl? Whatever your body weight is, it's perfectly fine. You're showing signs of anorexia already and so either you forget these thoughts or talk to someone.
I'm overweight, my weight is not fine
I've seen the videos, I won't let myself get that bad
That's what they all say. Ask for a diet from your doctors.
First problem, I haven't been to a doctor in probably 7 years
I don't even have enough money to eat a proper healthy diet
You haven't been to the doctor in seven years?
How can you afford this device you're using, then?
Nope. Is that a problem? Should I be going to the doctor?
I don't pay for my phone and neither does my parents. My auntie does
Yes you SHOULD be going to the doctor! You could have a HORRIBLE disease and you might not know it! You might CONTRACT a horrible disease! And doctors can help you with your weight
Maybe I should go. My parents haven't ever worried about me going to the doctor tho
You should go at least once a year. Most people go every 6 months and that's healthy
Oops I guess. I should maybe go then
Yes, u should
Don't do this. You will die.
Lets think about this rationally. You want to lose fat, not weight. You're also at an age where you're growing, so you don't want to fuck up your health in the long term.
If you want a short cut cheat code to losing extra fat, it's simple - science the shit out of it.
Here's 2 things I can recommend you do immediately for almost instant results:
1.) Eat more!. The thing with fat is that it is your body's way of storing energy. Your body is programmed to store more energy when it feels worried that it might need energy later on. If you reassure your body that there's plenty of food around and it doesn't need to worry, then it will stop storing the energy. So eat more, but eat in smaller portions just more frequently.
2.) Eat your carbs only in the morning and completely cut carbs and sugar after 3pm. Carbs is the body's fuel, and fuel is important to help your body move. The more your body moves, the more fat it burns, so don't skip carbs completely. However, if you eat carbs at night, then the excess fuel will be floating around after you sleep. The body has no choice but to turn that into fat. So fuel up in the morning, and don't leave excess fuel around at night. Simple.
I'm not really growing anymore, I haven't grown since I was 13 and I'm 17
If I eat more food, I just gain weight. And don't tell me to exercise, I do that already
Oh I know. But anytime I say that if I eat more food then I just gain weight thr other person just says "do some exercise then"
Plenty of fat people go to the gym and stay fat. "Exercising" isn't a magic bullet.
If you're gaining weight when you eat more, then look into breaking down how you eat and what you're eating.
The Ideal weight loss way is to constantly graze from morning to night. Never feeling 100% full, but never hungry either.
Ok well I never eat at night anyway & I never eat until I'm full. I'm usually hungry
You'll end up in the hospital.
Your body, because you'll drop dead.
You need to eat. Don't starve yourself.
You need to eat honey. Eat salad & cottage cheese.
Roughly 3 lbs of fat and 10-15 lbs of water.
You're going to die. Hyponatremia
