Crash Diets or quick weight loss diets are not healthy for a person.
Some people say it makes you gain your weight faster than before when you stop the diet.Is it true?Does it have a scientific basis?
Re: Crash Diets?
Yup! And it makes sense too cuz there r no shortcuts in life.
You are correct... Be weary of diets which limit all your carbs, because when you come back to the fine stuff made out of carbs, you gain ever more!
I know a friend whose into body building. Lost about 80lbs before the show after going on a total no carb diet over a span of 3 months. After the show was over, he gained a whooping 110lbs in just 3 weeks!

He's huge, and from what he told me about bodybuilding shows, that's pretty normal... They also eat like pigs after the show. I have seen him consume two huge tubs of Ben and Jerry's in one go!

Ohhh then ask him how he manage to loose that much weight? What helped him?
"Two, in crash dieting, you are slowing down your body metabolism, which is what allows you to burn fat and calories effectively and efficiently. You are doing the exact opposite of what you set out to do. You may not be gaining weight, but you aren’t burning fat and calories either. When you eat normally again, you will most probably gain some weight since your metabolism is already slow.
Third, you might notice that you are becoming skinnier as the time passes in your crash diet period, but don’t take it as burning fat, you are actually losing some muscle mass. This is not a good thing as this is what makes your body a fat burning machine.
Because you lost muscle mass, the next time you eat is going to be worse, you will gain back the weight plus more pounds."
