    Starvation mode is not the way to lose weight. You gain it ALL back and then some when you start eating again one reason being because your metabolism will be thrown off.
    Plus if you don't know how to break 'a fast' properly then you could get really ill.
    The only way to properly lose weight is learn what foods your body burns calories and fat best.
    With starvation mode, your body believes it's about to starve, the first thing it does is shut down its fat-burners to preserve fuel (fat) so you actually retain the fat.

    I agree. Starvation is a steep no one should cross. Talk to your doctor to give you more incite on this. Have you tried other options?

    I believe in a healthy diet -- dieting is a mind game -- eat right and exercise
