    When you do that, your body is mostly losing muscle and nutrients.
    And just drinking water all the time to lose weight won't work 100% because once you stop, you will gain the pounds you tried starving off.

    Starving and fad diets only make you gain more weight in the long run.
    You need to get on a good healthy eating habit that you can make as your lifestyle.
    Changing to sea salt, drinking more water (not tap) and switching butter instead of margarine
    Olive oil or coconut oil instead of the Crisco vegetable/canola oils helped me a lot.

    I'm sure you will look great and everything, but its kind of messed up that you are freaking out about this date and he probably isn't even thinking twice about it. Oh well, hope it works out!

    Looks are very important

    Even more so on first dates :) so good luck


    Fasting is a good idea for a week. Anymore than that its hurt full

    If you want to lose it fast yeah go for fasting. But whne you start eating again. Eat little. Because as they say your body will be in starvation mode. And it will try and eat up so many claories

    Just take lots of vitamen pills. You should be OK :)

    Good luck

    Hey... just so we are clear... at 6'1" and 140 lbs the guy your are dating is anorexic. That IS INSANE even if it is pre-pubescent! And also just so you know cutie... guys wouldn't even be able to tell if you lost 10 lbs. trust me. And if I were the guy you were after and I found out you were trying to drop a 20 spot to go on a date with me, it would quite honestly freak me the f out! Go work out with him a couple times a week or go do an activity together on your dates... don't freakin' scare him away by becoming a wee bit nutso before the first date. Where black and heels you will be fine. Worry about your breath and hair more. I can't believe what this world is coming too!!

    Love you babe! Take care of yous!

    You didn't gain all that weight overnight and you certainly cannot lose it all overnight either. Just eat sensibly as you are a growing girl of 16 and should not start the yoyo dieting at this early of an age. Lose the weight gradually and you'll be better off. Also pointed out earlier any dude that is that tall and that skinny means that his metabolism is out of whack big time.

    That's absolutely crazy. (1) You can't lose that amount of weight in a week. It just won't work. Even if you didn't eat, period, you may lose like maybe 7 or 8 lbs tops. (2) Why would you want to lose that amount of weight for ONE DATE! If you want to impress him, your better off with a new outfit and a haircut. I personally would choose the mall over the hospital...
