if you don't eat, you will end up looking like this:

(only look if you want to, it's quite... horrible)
this girl, if you looked at it, she starved herself and that's the outcome.

in most cases, it's not true you'll get fatter, you may get a bloated stomach, but in most if not all cases, you will lose weight, whether or not it's fat or muscle that you're losing, you will lose it.

now, although some people do gain weight when they begin not eating, if they carry on not eating, they will lose it. it's because the body get's used to not eating and panics, so it starts eating itself. like, eating your stomach, which'll cause holes (ulcers). or, eating away at your muscle and fat. which'll cause weight loss.

if you only eat, say one meal a day, then you could still lose alot of weight, and if you're exericising too as that burns the calories off.

but everyone is different, i guess, and maybe some people do get fatter, everyones bodies are different, they react differently, so it is a bit hard to tell what happens to people if they don't eat enough, or at all.

from experience, and from what i have seen, you lose ALOT of weight and end up being incredibly ill, and at deaths door.

but hey, that's just my opinion!

Im not sure if you not eating alot is down to it. Muslce is more dense than fat so when you start working out you will begin to gain weight. Perhaps thats behind it?

It is perfectly true that you can put on weight by not eating enough. My PSHE teacher explained it to us. It's cos your body's desperate for food and fat is an energy store. Your body stores as much as it can and you put on weight
