Question

Would starving yourself for a week make you lose weight or gain weight? If you were to work out (such as running) would that make you lose weight faster? (When I mean starving I mean 1,000 calories or less.)

Answer 1

Th answer to:(Would starving yourself for a week make you lose weight or gain weight?)

The body cannot adapt from dropping to an ultra-low caloric intake to lose weight and return to a higher caloric intake to maintain the weight loss. The body will store the extra calories as fat. ... Starving to lose weight makes your body more likely, in the long-run, to replenish fat. So no it would not make you lose weight it would help you gain it.

The answer to:(If you were to work out (such as running) would that make you lose weight faster?)

The safest weight loss is around 1 pound per week if you weigh under 150 pounds, and 1 to 2 pounds per week if you weigh over 150 pounds. This will be a 500-calorie-per-day deficit through a combination of exercise and cutting calories.Yes, it would help you lose weight,but only if eat healthy,light meals. Because if you eat huge fattening foods it would do nothing at all.

I hope that I could help you

Answer 2

Starving your self will certainly make you lose weight faster. But don't starve yourself because it is very unhealthy and dangerous.
