Maybe a little... but I'll tell you what it will do, it will eventually screw up your gall bladder, liver and kidneys! Imagine yourself sitting on a beach in maui, wearing that skinny bikini... With a colostomy bag, a HUGE gall bladder scar and that lovely yellow glow that only jaundice can give!

No. It will make you gain weight. You'll damage your intestines - only causing them to absorb the food earlier up in them.

Taking laxatives to lose weight is NEVER a good idea..nor is taking diuretics..you are damaging the rest of you body in exchange for any weight loss you may temporarily achieve..:)

it will make you lose weight. it wont make you lose fat

The common belief is that laxatives will make you lose weight, this is absolutely not true. A laxative performs its duty in the colon not the stomach, so by the time the food reaches your colon all the calories from the food have already been absorbed so taking a laxative is a waste of time. There are however a lot of medical risks that accompany the abuse of laxatives, some of them are of a serious nature.

Maybe, but it WILL make you lose your health.

yes but your balls will swell up and fall off

Yeah! By the contents of your bowel; it won't make you skinnier though...

that is really bad for you and it has long term effects on your body

only about 10" worth.

Laxatives may come in different forms, from food to other forms of drugs like pills and can be taken orally or as a suppository. These weight loss laxatives are used to stimulate bowel movement, thus expelling undigested food from the body. In routine medical examinations, laxatives are used to clear the colon in preparation for rectal examinations. During digestion, the nutrients and fats in the food are absorbed quickly in the small intestines. When the digested food goes to the large intestines, it is already stripped of the fats and calories supposedly to be removed by the laxatives but laxatives work on the lower intestines by inducing the intestinal muscles to contract and force out body waste. This defeats the purpose of using laxatives for weight loss because what the body expels is waste not fat. People taking laxatives to get rid of body fat are ignorant about the nature and purpose of laxatives and its effects on the body. They are taken by the idea that because laxatives forces out excess food from the body, the weight loss process begins. The sensation of thinness also reinforces their mistaken belief and they become addicted to the feeling of feeling empty. They are not also aware that laxatives can be addictive. An innocent use of laxatives for constipation can lead to dependency. People can go as long as 30 days without a "move" if they don't use laxatives. This dependence forces them to increase their dosage because it has come to a point that their bowel systems cannot perform without laxative-induced spasms; it has also been noted that people with eating disorders are most likely to abuse laxatives. The Truth about Laxatives -- Laxatives do not help in weight loss. Expelling undigested food is not the same as expelling excess body fats. The substances that are lost with laxative use are water and body wastes. Excessive use of laxatives may lead to dehydration and depletes the body's store of minerals. -- Using Laxatives can be painful. If your food intake is not enough the bowel movement will be excruciating. The laxative induces the bowel movement forcing it to go through the motions despite insufficient calories to do the function. This causes the painful bowel movement. -- Regular use can lead to laxative addiction. Long-term use causes the body to depend on laxatives to induce bowel movements. Addiction to laxatives endangers one's health and bodily functions. The loss of fluids and body minerals leads to an electrolyte imbalance characterized by spasms, muscle pains, and dizzy spells which can be fatal. Renal failure can also occur when the kidneys are damaged.
