Can i lose a significant amount of weight quickly by only taking exlax and water pills?

six months ago i gave birth to my first chid. i gained 80lbs+. due to such a weight gain, i find myself depressed. in the past i have had problems with my weight and therefore have participated in drastic measures toward weight loss such as anorexia and bullimia. because these two options have been the only successful ways i have been able to lose weight before, i have been yo-yo dieting over the past 3 months by not eating certain days and binging on others and therefore causing more weight gain. i also have a tendency to overeat due to stress, which is abundant in my life now, and boredom. after trying multiple kinds of diet pills, drinks, and supplements, i was suggested to go on a diet in which i only consisting of only exlax and water pills. will such a diet as this create a significant weight loss in a small amount of time? i am desperate due to the fact that i have now gained a total of 80lbs and want nothing more than to go back to the 120lb body that i used to have.
Answer:
Check out a book called THE ABS DIET. It is the best book I ever read and just started the program.
Taking exlax and water pills is VERY unhealthy. That is still a form of bellumia. Rather than puking, you are pooping. Same thing. As soon as you start eating normally again, all the weight will come right back on. The only way to lose weight is diet and exercise. You can lose up to 2 lbs a week. You'll be healthy, happy, energetic, and above all you'll be proud that you lose weight the right way. You'll have a whole new appreciaton for your body and outlook on life itself. Sounds to me like you need to talk to someone. The fact that it's more important to you to be thin-- at any cost,including starving yourself and possibly killing yourself--than being healthy for your kids is shocking. Seek help.
it can kill you faster than the weight would come off.
yes , you certainly can loose a lot of weight that way. What else you will loose is your health, no vitamin absorption. Bone mass loss because you will be leaking calcium out of your bones.The problem you having is depression, probably post -partum depression and you need to talk to your Doctor about this. In order to loose weight, cut out all soda pops eliminate sugars and fast foods and excercise. That is the only way. Please take care of yourself before you will have some nasty problems. hedwigblck@yahoo.com
EXERCISE! Honey you need more than a quick fix, you need a permanent solution. This is not healthy what you been doing. Mentally you sound unstable go to church...seek some professional help you got a baby to raise.
I just stumbled onto something called "The 3-Hour Diet." You actually eat every three hours, according to the plan, and this speeds up your metabolism. It's quite incredible. Their website is 3hourplan.com. and you can see what it's all about.Your weight gain is because by starving yourself, you put your body into a "starvation mode," and it slows down your metabolism. Also, any weight you lose is not fat but lean muscle, which you need to kick your metabolism into high gear.I understand your desperation. Been there. Done that.
Give this one a shot. I don't think you'll regret it, but you WILL regret it if you continue on this path you're on. You are slowly self-destructing, and you are depleting your body of essential minerals it needs, especially calcium and iron, when you do these type of drastic measures.I used to overeat due to stress, also, and this is one area that is difficult to overcome, I know, but you can. Good luck. Please let me know how you're doing because I am actually concerned about you.
