I hav a few qs.......
If you dont eat anything and take
diet/weight loss pills, is it harmful?
Because arnt they supposed to suppress
your appetite and make you not eat anyway?
Also, just out of curiosity how long does
it take for your body to survive without
food?
Any answers would b great
thanks

Not a Great Idea Posted: 03-31-04 01:43am
Hey stacie I dont know if diet pills are
harmful but i'm guessing there not totally
safe and I dont think you will get a reply
from anyone telling you how long you can
go without food. I dont eat much but I am
not going to help others follow in my
footsteps. I know you just want advice
but I really dont think its s great idea
to starve yourself. Anyway just wanted to
tell you that, I hope you are well.

Very bad idea. .First off, diet pills are
bad for your heart. Starving at the same
time is only sooo much worse u have no
idea. I did it. I know from experience
in the past. I ended up at the hospital
with a heart racing out of control and I
hadnt slept in 4 days. Crept up on me all
the sudden. Trust me, very unsafe. And I
wouldnt go any days without eating.. Its
all not safe. . U never know what ur
body can take, one day it could just fail
on u out of the blue. .And it does
happen.

Once again some diet pills are dangerous
and some are not. They do "supress" your
appetite, but not completely. You need
to eat healthy and excercise while taking
a diet pill the way it is suppose to be
taken for good results. No, you cannot
take diet pills and just not eat, it is
very dangerous. Even just not eating is
dangerous, whether or not you are taking
pills. I believe you can go seven days
without water and three weeks without
food? Feel free to correct me if wrong,
I just heard that somewhere. But it is
not safe at all anyway. You develop all
sorts of health problems from not eating
and from not eating right.
