If you don’t eat or drink much in a day do you loose weight?

If you’re on a caloric deficit then theoretically yes you should be losing weight. But sometimes your body just ends up holding onto the little amount of water and food bc it’s on survival mode and trying to prevent you from dehydration or starvation.

I ate cucumbers and only drank water for 3 months and I lost 85 pounds.

You weren’t eating food at all?

Blueberries along with the cucumbers but that's it. I'd also eat almonds. That's all.

Nice

A little bit but if you keep doing it your body will go into starvation mode where it reduces energy consumption and tries to prevent you from becoming emaciated and dying. That’s not a healthy way of losing weight.

I can tell you from experience, no, you do not. If anything, the opposite happens because your body is storing fat. That's what happened to me. I got fat by not eating anything.

Ask @thespacegnome. He claims to know a lot about this.
