Simple question about calorie intake and exercise?

Honestly...

If I eat very minimally for 2 days and burn around 400-500 calories through exercise each day and drink lots of water, will I look and be thinner by the end of the second day?

PLEASE don't tell me all the disclaimers, like it won't work in the long run or it's unhealthy. I KNOW it will come right back when I eat normally and it's unhealthy for the long-term. So please just answer, whether by personal experience or through someone you know, the question I have given.

Thanks

    If you are really big to start, then no. If you are dealing with 10-15lbs extra to begin with, yes. I've found that when I eat hardly anything and exercise extensively, I can see a noticeable difference in just a few days.

    In two days, I doubt it given the plan you are talking about. Only burning and extra 4-500 calories a day is minimal. It's all about calories in versus calories out. I guess it depends on what you mean by eat very minimally. Personally, I have and have also seen other people lose 10 pounds in a week by cutting their calorie intake to 1500 calories and doing extensive exercise for the entire week (5-6 times for at least one hour).

    Hi Dana, as a wellness Coach I have got to inform you that for those who move one thousand energy or below an afternoon be certain and assess along with your medical professional to be certain it's good enough. Now, with that stated, it isn't the energy however what the energy include that's foremost. The the first thing a frame burns is Carbs. So, in the ones one thousand energy the least quantity demands to be carbs. However, you have got to devour carbs everyday to not get out of stability. So, here's what I feel might be just right for you. You do have plenty to lose. I might begin out consuming five-6 occasions an afternoon, make 2 of the ones foods approximately five-eight oz. of lean protein, a cup of salad and a cup of non starchy greens. Eat this meal 2 occasions an afternoon. the opposite three-four foods will have to be a fruit snack, truly fruit, a entire wheat snack or non-fats sugar loose pudding or jello and probably a shake meal alternative. those paintings very well in this sort of plan. Drink eight glasses of water an afternoon to scrub your frame of poisons and the fat you will have burned. I recognize you will not like this however take a photograph of your self, you do not ought to seem at it, however maintain it for a couple of weeks and for those who consider a loss of motivation take a seem on the photograph and bear in mind what you wish to achieve. You can do it... however it's paintings.
