[quote=Anonymous]I used to do this when I was in the throes of an eating disorder, and I kept it up for years.  I was very, very sick, but I was very thin.  It wasn't worth it.  OP, you CAN lose weight doing this, but you won't look good because your hair will be dry, brittle, and will thin, your skin will be dry and hideous, and your breath will stink.  Plus, you will be tired and will soon think constantly of food, plotting ways to cut calories, assessing and critiquing other people's bodies/weight, and fighting your own hunger.  You might think that you can do this kind of thing short-term to be ready for a special event, but this kind of regime changes the way you think and view yourself and the world around you, and the danger is that you will not be able to just stop when you want to stop.

I'd rather be dead than go back to that.  If I hadn't gotten help and learned to eat healthily and exercise to keep my body strong, I WOULD be dead.

But you do you.  I look at some celebrities and see in their eyes what I went through, but presumably it is worth it to them.  You can do it and you will lose weight, but think long and hard about whether or not it will be worth it.[/quote]
