How much weight can you really lose if you're starving yourself and only eating dinner and maybe a small snack?

If you ate more before switching to this, you'd probably loose a bit. Then your body would get used to it and adjust to that lifestyle. Which basically means you'd loose weight, then you wouldn't loose more after that.

Just wanted to contribute my own personal experience with this one. This is EXACTLY what I've been doing for about 7-8 months now. It started out nonintentional..I started back to school and had 8 hour classes that we weren't allowed to bring any kind of food or snacks.

I got so used to eatting when I got home, that it turned into eatting only one time a day. I am 22 years old, 5'6 and I weighed 132 lbs. Currently (7-8 months later) I weigh 118 lbs.

But it fluctuates. I hate that I've done this to myself....don't get me wrong, I love wearing a size 4 instead of a size 8, but now, whenever I eat more than one meal a day, I gain like 2-3 lbs. In ONE day!

Your body adjusts to what you've done to it, and, in a way, your body punishes you. I know that if I started eatting normal....ya know, 3 meals a day with snacks in between, I'd probably blow up like a blimp....simply because I have shot and killed my metabolism. So....can't really stop you from making this decision, but just letting you know that the end result...the very end result, is not one to be desired!

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
