I lost a lot of weight in a day?

Okay, so I was a bit of a fatass. Still am pudgy, whatever. So I ran out of money briefly and had no food in the house. I didn't eat for 2 days. I drank lots of water so it wasn't water weight. Also, I didn't excercise or anything. I'm not sure of the number because I don't have a scale, but I look way skinnier than before, people I haven't even told this have commented that it looks like I've lost a lot of weight, and whereas before when I sucked in my stomach there was still a significant bulge under my chest, now my stomach goes way in and you can see my damn ribcage. I've never noticed before having a fast metabolism, and indeed I get fat, but this was insane. I figured even if I burned 3500 cal a day without eating, I still should only lose like 2 pounds in two days. Would two little pounds make such a drastic difference in appearance? People aren't supposed to lose weight that fast right? Even starving? Do I have some disease or what?

      #1 what makes you think running out of money for a couple of days would prevent me from having internet? Its not like you have to pay them every time you fire up your browser.

      #2 its part of a package deal with my apartment. I pay my rent, I get internet , cable, electricity, and water. I have no choice in the matter.

    Only 2 pounds?

    Yep that's normal. Your body went into starvation mode.

    If you really want to lose weight "starvation" isn't the answer.

    Yes you need to take in less than you burn but if your body isn't fed then it shuts down and says "screw you i'm saving this stuff in case we're drying"

      You didn't actually read this very well did you?

      1. I didn't say I lost two pounds. I said it seemed like I should've only lost two pounds when I lost more.

      2. The right way to diet? I ran out of money and had no food. This wasn't by choice.

        you didn't actually say how much you lost.

        however you probably didn't lose as much as you think you did. otherwise people who are homeless without food would only weigh 5 pounds if they lost over 2 pounds a day from not eating

        in fact the human body can last about 3 or 4 days without food.

    I bought the book, Lose 17 lbs in 17 days and it seems to be working. Basically, eat white protein and green veg, 2 light yogurts, fruit before lunch time - each day. No pasta, potatoes, bread.

    However, you have to be in the right frame of mind to want to lose weight.

    Maybe you were just bloated before because of how much you ate and since you haven't been eating your stomach has gone down.
    Happened to me too, but you won't loose anymore unless you work at it
