when u crash diet your body loses muscle which is bad because as soon as u start eating normally it turns to fat.thats why yo yo dieters struggle to lose weight in th long run.

It can make your body resist weight loss, for one. Also, different diets can be very unhealthy and trying a bunch of them in a short period can lead to a bunch of health problems.
If you need to lose weight for health reasons, then talk to your doctor- he or she can put you on a good nutritional plan and help you to know what exercises will help.

My wife did yo-yo dieting all through her teen years.
At 26 she was taken into hospital after a week of incredible pain and diagnosed with gall stones.
The doctors explained then that the cause was most likely to be yo-yo dieting. I kid you not – even with very high levels of morphine she was still in agony. Don’t do it!
Sensible weight loss is 2lbs a week tops.
Also – if you starve yourself your body will then store future food as fat (as emergency stores) – therefore you are more likely to put on weight when you eat normally.

Yo-Yo dieting does effect your body plus your body (you will be surprised at this) can be trained to a diet. For example I don’t eat red meat(i worked as a butcher in a supermarket with at University and it put me off for life), and I hadn’t for four years but when I had some about 5 months ago my body was so sick and my digetsive system caused me problems infact I had to go to the doctor about it. I still don’t eat red meat plus other food as I’m allergic to certain things cocoa, too much yeast and lots of things. That’s why before you do a diet you should go to your doctor and then a dietician and they can work out the best diet for you! Not all diets are for everybody! But try to eat a balanced diet and you should be okay, but be careful of bingeing! LOL i went through some sweets the other day like no bodies business. Good luck!
