How much weight can one expect to lose with a crash diet of one week to ten days?
With a crash diet of 1 week to 10 days, all the weight you’re going to loose is the weight of the partially digested food that remains in your gut before you get rid of it in the toilet. There is very little that your body can do in that time to really lose weight (i.e. metabolize fat away to really lose weight). So, if you eat virtually nothing for a week, depending on your physical size and build, you may lose a couple of kilos, but the moment you stop the diet, your body will accumulate all that weight back again in a couple of days, as your gut refills with food. Of course, it is extremely dangerous to do something like this, and you would be really ill advised to do it. Another thing to note is that even if you lose the weight, your body has not physically changed in any way, and although your belly may be slightly slimmer, because it doesn’t have 2-3 kilos of partially digested food in it, in one week your body won’t have changed it’s posture, or muscle tone, so you’re not actual
