Lost 4lbs in a day from not eating possible?

[needtobeswoledup]

I have been trying to not go out and party and get my act together and gain some weight. I was up to 181 in the morning on wednesday. Wednesday I had a lot of shit happen and my last meal was at 5 pm. I drank and did some coke that night and didn't eat till 12 noon the next day. I stepped on the scale the next day before I ate anything and I weighed 177. I know I have a high metabolism but did I just lose 4lbs of muscle in one day from not eating or was it mostly water weight? Both times I weighed in the morning after I woke up so I didn't think it would be water weight.... what happened... i'm pretty pissed..

If you drink and do coke on top of having a fast metabolism then you might as well give up right now on gaining weight because it isn't going to happen. That weight was mostly water but I wouldn't doubt if you lost muscle after doing coke and not eating for 17 hours. When you decide to get serious about weight training and stop doing stupid shit like coke then maybe you can get some people to help. Right now you're pissing against the wind my friend.

I realize that, which is why I had stopped doing any of that and put on some weight until yesterday when I had a lot of stress from an ex and went overboard. I Just didn't think it could hurt me that much in one day?!? it's very frustrating

One day did not have that much of a negative effect on you. THe weight loss is water (alcohol supresses anti-diuretic hormone) and lack of food in your system. Get back on track today and you will be fine.


Vageta lighten up man - he had a little breakdown in his program for one night and is trying to get back on track. You can still have success and have a little fun every now and then.

People still do coke? Pshhh.. how 80's.

Seriously man, get off the drugs. Learn to have fun without getting fucked up.

w, I told him the straight truth instead of cuddling him. If he continues to do coke and shit then all of his working out and dieting is worthless. Period. Also a "bad night" is no excuse to get fucked up on drugs. Deal with it normally like the rest of us do.

I don't care if the guy gets fucked up every night, my only point is that he is destroying his chances to make progress by doing it.
