If you stop eating entirely for 2 months you might just barely make it.

Outside of necessary amputations or liposuction, there’s no healthy way to do that. Especially in a way that’s sustainable.

Severe illness or a gulag.

50 lb over 8 weeks is pretty insane. 1 lb/week is pretty good. 2 a week is pushing it.

50 isn’t going to happen without consequences.

You lose about a pound a day water fasting, but its hard mentally and physically. As in if you’ve never fasted before, its gonna be hard to keep going the first 24hrs. If you’re obese you have a good chance to come out just fine. You can look up the electrolytes y o u need to do an extended water fast. You should be getting checked out by a doc frequently while doing it. Things can go bad really quickly. Read, read, read everything you can before doing this.

A Protein Sparing Modified Fast(PSMF) is where you eat about 600 to 800 calories a day with about 120 to 150g of protein (chicken breast) with leafy greens( broccoli, spinach, kale) the veg is so low calorie it doesnt really matter the amount as long as its at least a cup( you need the vitamins, minerals, and fiber). the protein so filling you basically are gonna be “full”. you wont be satisfied, but you will be able to eat and never be looking for more. the point is to have enough protein intake to keep your muscle loss to a minimum. You have to do a basic weight training or calisthenics regimen to keep the muscle loss down.

• Take a multivitamin
• if your having trouble shitting, more veg
• lightheaded: pinch of salt in a glass of water, broth, or buy what is called lite salt here( its a mix of sodium and potassium salt; you need both types anyway)

Go to your doc and tell them your plan. They will take blood exams, probably EKG, and check ins every 2 or 3 weeks to make sure everything is OK. I’ve done PSMF because my sleep apnea was literally killing me. I lost 25 lbs the first month and 20 the next. It sucked, but it fixed my apnea and all my cardiovascular and metabolic problems. I then gradually raised my calories to 1800 and kept losing weight until I got to a normal weight.

You will have loose skin, lift weights and fill out with muscle to help with it. If something feels off, wrong, hurts, etc. Stop and go get checked out.

I did a pretty extreme weight loss a few years back, and in two months, I lost 20 pounds.

Even that was a bit more than is recommended without strict medical supervision. Two pounds per week is kind of the upper bound of “normal” weight loss. Don’t attempt more without a very, very good reason, and an even better doctor.

Losing that much weight in that amount of time means you have a critical medical condition. However in two months you can easily learn better, healthy nutrition and become more active, even have a lightweight exercise program. This will serve you better in the long run. There is never an easy way to become more healthy in a short term, except death.

I lost 40lbs in 7 weeks. Would not recommend. It was from chemo and radiation making so that I vomited any food, and needed a liquid food pump inserted. Your body will be wrecked at that calorie loss.

You can even do it in 1 minute with a good axe.

Amputate one of your balls.

Unless you’re a huge person to start or have massive water weight you don’t. A pound of fat is approximately 3,000 calories, so you would need an almost 3K deficit every day to drop that, and since most people eat around that much as their normal intake that’s an extreme amount that could be deemed starvation.

Now if you happen to be huge where the normal body functioning uses well past that then maybe, but if you’re anywhere below 300 lbs that would be a crazy amount for 2 months.

A tapeworm infection.

50 pounds in 8 weeks is 6 pounds per week which is well beyond a safe level of fat loss (without medical supervision and extenuating circumstances or surgery).

You’ll be left with a lot of flappy skin too.

“Not spending a lot” wouldn’t be worrying about that, you’re not going to be eating.

Assuming you’re a male, you should not drop below 1500 cal a day, it can cause permanent issues.

This would kill you.
