I LOST 2 Stones In 2 Weeks By Accident

A little while ago I was very sick, I caught a fever which left me bed-ridden, during this time I lost my appetite too, could only drink water. To my amazement 2 weeks later I recovered, I stood on a scale to view my weight I was 2 stones lighter. If anybody's thinking about trying the water diet at home DON'T, here's why! As quickly as I lost the weight I gained it all back again within 1 month (due to feeling starved & overeating). Also, I was suffering from a terrible pain in my toes & thighs (like pins & needles) which was probably due to my blood and muscles not getting enougth nutrients & vitamins during my illness. In future I would like to try a liquid diet combined with food, becuase I've seen the dramatic effects (by accident) a liquid diet can have. I think the most important rule with all diets is mind over matter, if you're prepared mentally we can complete any healthy diet.
 
Unfortunatley, the weight that you lost were probably a lot of muscle as well. You lost weight by starvation which is bad unless you are a movie star (then its acceptable standards for them. :)

And sportychica, that's unfortunate to hear, I hope you are doing better now.

Yeah since you couldn't eat much, your body used up some of your muscles as an energy source to keep you alive.

But like you said, mind over matter... stay focused and you will be back better than ever.
