Answer 1

Dramatic weight loss (10-20 pounds in a week is dramatic) is shockingly bad for you. This wrecks your metabolism and irreversibly damages your immune system.

Your metabolism slows and your body does its utmost to preserve precious fat stores. It starts to use up fat burning muscle tissue for fuel instead of life-saving fat which slows your metabolism even further. Eventually, the fast weight loss will slow to a complete stop as your body slows your metabolism to prevent you from starving to death.

Say you lose 20 pounds in a week. You'd be ecstatic, right?

The problem is that only around 12 pounds of that will be fat, 6 pounds will be muscle and the rest water. Happy with your loss you go back to eating exactly how you did before. Soon you have gained the weight back and then some more (this is not a maybe, IT WILL HAPPEN)

Start on a healthy weight loss program now. 2 pounds (1 kg) of weight loss a week is considered healthy. You will go to school a bit bigger than you would like but within two-three months you will have achieved healthy and permanent weight loss.
