A member asked:
Which makes you thinner faster: binge eating or fasting? which one is healthier?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Neither...: The safest and most reliable to permanent weight loss is healthy lifestyle modification and a balanced low calorie diet. A consistent calorie deficit of 500 - 1000 calories per day will produce safe and steady weight loss. Desired results can be achieved reliably and safely with products like medifast meal replacements which are balanced and fortified with essential vitamins and minerals.
