Thanks for taking the time to write that. For me, as large and lean as i used to be, i know what i have to do, starving myself is just the start of something greater, so big deal. As i stated earlier though, to assume your body will consume muscle before fat is crazy, my stomach and love handles are pulling in already, so that disproves any theory on that for my particular body, i could agree it was water weight if i was not consuming water,and other liquids, but i am drinking whatever i want.

If you want to lose weight in a very unhealthy way, just do cocaine, it's even easier than starving yourself, maybe just more pricey.
I understand that everybody is different. But when it comes to formula of calories burned > calories consumed = weight loss, everybody is the same. Everybody is also the same in the sense that they all need a certain amount of nutrients a day to be healthy, which are obtained from food.

I started eating more healthier cutting out hardcore fats and salt using alternative...olive oil instead of butter Ms dash. / or MC cormmick seasonings without salt or use very little sea salt. Chicken fish pork and beef trim fat off, bake or grill -> preferably grill, no sweet drinks, only sodas I drink are 0 Cal 0 Carb, fruits, 2% milk, splenda instead of sugar when available. When I feel like I'm still hungry I load up on salads low fat low sodium dressing. Or season the hell out of boiled veggies. I Cut sweets ( cake pie ect... ) out period lightly straying away from starches, pastas and wheat bread but brown rice is ***, as far as workout I work enough at work either I'm outside lifting stuff for 7-8 hours or in a warehouse lifting stuff for 7-8 hours, my uncle lost a lot of water weight by cutting out salt and wearing one of those sweat ( trash bag looking ) suits or 30 mins a day. Semi lifestyle change I actually shop for food now ( reading labels and comparing ) instead of making groceries for 2+ weeks in 10 minutes doesn't mean you can't eat that greasy sandwich or BBQ but limit yourself to how much you take in. Good luck with the weight loss.

...you are doing more harm to your body than good. Not eating is more unhealthy than your previous habits.
Eat healthier, smaller meals, and get in the gym or outside in the heat! You will see better results and will actually keep the weight off.
