One of my weight lifting buddies told me he cuts weight with laxatives. i figure that is not a healthy way to do it, but does it work?

Answer:

Imagin yourself without the weight. It looks good right? Now see yourself in the same light but shopping for depends!!! You can become dependent on them for bowel movements over time. Also Laxatives empty the large bowel, which has little effect on actual weight loss. The reason for this is because the food and calories that you consume have already been absorbed in the small intestine by the time the laxatives begin to work. Plus all you are losing is water weight.

Yeah i like to date guys who mess themselve bacause they no longer have the muscles to hold in their waste. The diapers look really good with the skinny jeans as well girls!!!

Good luck.

No, it just makes you lazy. The bowel will soon lock up on you.

It can work, but you're right, its not the right way to lose weight. When my husband joined the military he needed to get rid of a few extra pounds nearly over night and took laxatives. Your body can build up waste that doesnt come out and that can shed about 15 pounds if you spend the night on the toilet, lol.

the one pro: it will make you lose weight super fast

the cons: you will not get the nutrents from your food, you bowel will start acting up, you will become relient on them, once you stop taking them your body will store up your fat because it thinks it is just going to be gone again laxatives are not great and they make you have diarehia which isnt fun at all

Laxatives are a marketing wonder for drug companies that make them billions of dollars and prey on the ignorant. Laxatives are designed to agitate the intestines into moving. Does this sound like something nature intended? NOT.
