Will throwing up half of your meals make you lose weight?

Like eating a healthy, normal-sized dinner with your family, and then throwing up only half (ish) of it? Would that cause substantial weight loss, or not really?

If you never binge or anything. You eat like a normal person and throw up about half.
I suppose details would be helpful: I''m not fat, I''m an injured athlete with a body fat percentage of 14, so I''m not being lazy, I''m doing the only thing I know how to do to cope, I''m trying to sabotage my own athletic career because I''m scared to death of having yet another knee surgery and rehabbing all for nothing, and I know you didn''t want a sob story but there you have one. Also, it takes me about 10x shoving my finger down my throat to get a meal up, do you really think people just bend over the toilet and the whole meal comes sliding out..

Losing Weight: The Simple Science of Losing Weight

Recommended Answer:
No, because your body would be absorbing the nutrients, and if there is fat, sugar, or starch in the food you are eating, that will IMMEDIATELY transfer in FAT. So the second it goes in, there is no turning back.

• That wouldn''t be the best weight loss technique. It would make you anorexic
• Just have half the portion, no throwing up involved.
• no dont do that coz ypur body will think its starving and make u gain weight and grow long thick dark hir all over Ur body
• not really, you just qet a bad immune and qet sick alot
• I can''t think of a way to vomit half of a meal. But you would gain the pleasure of seeing your dentist more often because of the stomach acid eating away at your teeth.
• It isn''t normal to throw up half of a healthy meal. The phrase "healthy meal" sort of implies that, doesn''t it?
• BAD IDEA. No matter the reason, you should not be throwing up any meals. It''s really bad for your body and it will not help you lose weight. Besides, how exactly would you throw up only half of it anyway? Last I checked, controlling how much you throw up wasn''t an option.
  Losing weight is not something you can just suddenly have happen. You have to work for it. Eating Healthy meals is important, to balance your nutrition. Throwing it up doesn''t help you at all, but eating a balanced diet will. Also, exercise is a second part. It''s a pain, I know, but it''s the only way, really. Jogging is one of the best ways, I believe, or swimming. Swimming is better because it''s fun too. It can just be hard to find a place that''s open in the colder months.
• That''s called Bulimia, and is not healthy. You should see a doctor to discuss this.
• no, but its the fastest way of making you sick :P
• Sure it would and it would also ruin your gag reflex, your teeth and your esophagus. How about just use portion control. If your eating healthy I don''t see how you could have a weight problem.
• You should drink a glass of water before you eat so then you wont be as hungry and its much healthier too so then you only eat in moderation
• That''s bulimia. It''s very dangerous. People who try it tend to think they can control it but it ends up controlling them. There''s not way to decide how much you''re going to throw up and when you do stomach acid comes up with the food hurting you throat and eroding your teeth. You''ll wind of with skin conditions from mal-nutrition and you''ll become quite moody so nobody will want to be around you. You will start to loose your functionality, starting with you light motor skill and logic.
• Don''t do it. It''s not worth it. Your teeth could actually rot away over time because the acids from your stomach would be constantly rotting away at your teeth. You could also die from dehydration and lack of proper nutrients.
  
  Seriously, don''t. Just try and eat healthier and exercise an hour a day. Sure, it takes some time to get into shape, but it will be worth it when you do finally get into shape. You''ll be HEALTHY too.
