I was thinking of starving my self, because I know people who have before and lost alot of weight, but they still eat a little ? I wanted to know if I didn't eat for two weeks wouldn't I lose alot of weight? And people say you would gain twice as much weight back when you start eating again, but I could start eating a little at a time and exercising alot to burn off the calories and speed up my metabolism again?. I just want to lose 20 pounds.(or more?) I thought this might work, and it would be fast. I don't want to stop eating over all b.C ii know I would become sick, my friend is border line anorexic ii guess? And she lost like 30 pounds. But idk so give me some advicee. Thanks.

A long time ago I had an eating disorder and I fasted on only water for 7 days. I only lost 12lbs and it all came back in a matter od days when I started to eat again. It will distroy your metabolism and your body will end up storing everything you put into it as fat. This is not a good way to lose weight. You'll find people that eat way more than you the same weight because they lost it the right way.
