What happens when you starve yourself?

I've heard a lot of people always starving themselves so that they can loose weight.
Why not go on a diet, and eat healthy.
but anyways.
what does happen to your body when you starve yourself?
and what happens if you do it for long periods, even days?

Hey,
I starved myself for a long time. I finally did start eating again after my friend force fed me and made me start eating again.
you asked why not go on a diet? its because its not a lifestyle choice...its a desease. I don't see myself like everyone else sees me. what I see in the miror isn't real. I see a bigger version of what I actaully am. When this happens you come to the conclution that the best (and fastest) way to lose weight is to simply not eat. At first it is tempting to eat but you still dont...After time, it becomes an addiction. I didn't care how miserable, or how hungry or dizzy I was...all I wanted to do was lose weight. It's something that after a while you lose control of what your doing and you cant stop starving yourself.

And you also wanted to know what happens to your body?
I had constant headaches, stomach pains and I would always pass out. I compleatly lost focuz in school and my brain started to slow down a lot. I was always depressed and I would cry 4-5 times a day. Its pure torture. and im so glad I recovered.

and yes it did have perminent affects on me aswell. I'm still depressed and I think I always will be. I still hate my body even though everyone else sais I am thin. and I am not as smart as I used to be
It changed my life forever.

its really hard not to eat it easyier not drinking anything

you die.

you get really realy hungry and grumpy and feel sick but if you are sick you throw up nothing no it just hurts your throat, also you get really bad head ackes and have no energy, and get really tired.

u die

your body needs the nutrienrts that you get from food that you eat so starving isn't good. when you starve yourself your body has nothing to work with so it starts to use the fat that you're ody has and after that it goes on to your organs, have you ever seen those kids on tv that live in Africa and those poor countries and how their stomach is all bloated. well that's what happens because your body has nothing else to work with but the organs of your body.

I wish I knew, I have been trying to starve myself for the last year, I go 5 to 7 days, after the first 24 hours the stomach pain stops, you are no longer hungry, you will have bad headaches dryness of the mouth, and very dizzy when you stand up or try to do anything, but don't let that stop you, workout as well, I hate myself and all others do as well, I tried everything, even shooting myself twice and still lived, tried taking bottles of xanax and valium, I slashed my wrist arms, legs trying to bleed out, but would always wake up in a ICU and then on the mental ward, it's easy to get out when you have no insurance, just tell them you were drunk and don't even remember anything, you would never try on purpose, works every time, I do have insurance, just don't tell anyone or leave a card in your purse or on your person, I'm trying harder this time, nothing to drink either and do harder workouts. Goodluck! I understand hun.

I tried to starve myself. I mean its pretty hard. try to eat less, and little by little your stomach will
get used to eating less. if you do this for about a week; on the second week your body wont need food!
I mean if you want to lose weight it really works to get in shape!
