yes they can make you lose weight, but that is not their purpose. Laxatives bascially wipe out everything in your stomach and bowels. Because of the effect they have on the body, they are not meant to take on a regular basis, only when you are constipated. If you take them over accessively, it can be evry dangerous and harm your body. Its just like purging or making yourself throw up, just in reverse because things will be going down instead of up. i don't recomend this as a way to lose weight.

I don't kno if it makes u loose weight " I look it up" but if u do take to much it is very, very dangerous and it can lead to death.

Taking laxatives to lose weight is a horrible and stupid idea. It is not at all healthy.
]
Yes, but don't use them for that because, well, first of all, it's not exactly fun, and it's *very* not good for you if you make a habit out of it.

yes it's true, but it isn't very healthy
It's actually a type of bulemia if you get addicted
Like throwing up is one type, and laxatives is another
Just like for aneorexia, not eating, or being severly underweight, So it is DEFINITLY NOT healthy

Heh, yeah, it's true, but no, it's not healthy for you. They obviously send stuff out of your body and that makes you loose weight, but it also isn't good because you could get addicted and you need SOMETHING in your system, and that could flush it all out.

Laxatives help you lose weight, but it isnt good for your body. If you get the cable channel 'noggin' there's a show on it called degrassi, its like a canadian show that deals with rape, cutting, teen pregancy, etc. Well,(i dont meant to compare you to the show but) on this show, a kid was taking laxatives, and he passed out from lack of nutrients to the body. Laxatives are not only dangerous, but a quick fix. you`ll probably gain the weight back after you are off of them. plus, you`ll have to go to the bathroom 24/7, which is not fun.

laxatives don't truly make you lose weight. They simply help you to lose water weight, or the weight of whatever waste you have in your system. But the calories would already have been absorbed if the food has been through your system, so it doesn't really make you lose weight. Don't use laxatives to lose weight, it can become a horrible cycle. Many people with eating disorders become dependent on them... not a pretty thing to happen!

no , it is not ok to take laxitives to lose weight , it is very dangorus , your body will sooner or later reject it making you very sick . the only way you should lose weight is eating right and exersiseng

Laxatives speed up the process of having to go #2. It makes you go very very often and a lot at a time. This is why it is said to help/make you lose weight. Yes, if you take too much if can be very dangerous. By speeding up this process you are forcing things out that have not had the chance to properly set and digest. It messes with your body's natural system. Also, if you aren't eating right it's even worse, because then you are just going without having any real substance to come out. Mixed with a lack of food or aneroxia you can sometimes die. If you want to lose weigh (5-10lbs) within a 2 weekish period and 3 or so every week after that try the South Beach Diet. It's low-carb.
