Is it alright to go on a 19 hour weigh-in fast?!
Question: Is it alright to go on a 19 hour weigh-in fast.?
I have a Weigh In later today (around 6pm.) I really want my weight to be low and I don't want to eat something and have that weight go up because of it. I know that fasting to lose weight is generally a bad idea, but I know that true weight is on an empty stomach.?
So would it be alright to go on a fast until the Weigh In.? I will eat immediately after I am weighed.Health Question & Answer

Answers:
No, that is not a good idea at all.
I am also a weight watchers member and can sympathize with you. When I go to my weigh ins I do whatever possible to get to my truest weight as possible. I wear light clothes and be sure I have nothing on me that could add any extra weight to me.
However, while I can understand where you are coming from, it is just not healthy to go without eating for such a long period of time. Your body risks going into starvation mode and any food eaten after it will be more likely to be stored as fat due to the lack of eating from before.
Instead of fasting, why not just eat some lighter meals before you go to the weigh in.? I personally like to have a smoothie with a meal bar and some fruit in order to keep me both sustained and light weighing before a weigh in.
Good luck!Health Question & Answer

Hey, i saw the pics of your weightloss, youve come so far.
Right, you gotta do the same as you did before your last weigh in.
for example,
if you did in fact eat before your last weigh in, then eat before this one
if you left it a while, leave it a while for this weigh in
dont go fasting for long periods though, atleast have your lunch before 6pm!
hope this helps, and keep it upHealth Question & Answer
