Starvation/liquid diet and permanent weight loss?

Question

I am considering going on a diet consisting of coffee and water for a few days or weeks to see if I can knock off a few pounds.

I have been on Atkins for about 6 months and have managed to come within 10 lbs. of my desired weight but now I have stopped losing. I don't care if my body thinks I am at my "natural weight" I want to be my optimal weight.

So my question is if I go on a liquid diet a.) Will I lose the weight? b.) well I be able to keep the weight off?

I do not eat any sugar or refined carbs.

Any information and/or opinions would be helpful.

Answer 1

You will lose weight, but will just gain it back when you start to eat "normal" again.  

Answer 2

They say that the worst diet out there is the liquid diet and that you will out the weight back on immediatley.  So I would not do it.

Answer 3

Yes you will lose it, you wont be abke to keep it off and your gonna look like c**p as your so hirribly undernourished. Just eat like a normal person ffs.
