Yes, you will most likely lose weight. Water weight that is unless you plan on taking this farther, for more than 2 weeks or so, which will cause your metabolism to completely slow down and then you'll gain weight eating a regular ham sandwich.

Trust me, I tried.

Diets like that over the course of two years on and off have caused me to become Anemic, serious stuff.

You might say, 'Ooh but it's only until I lose so and so amount of weight.' But that's not true. You'll start getting highs of weight loss even though you'll know it's all water, you'll still be in denial. You might develop a nutrient deficiency, which will cause all sorts of medical problems. You most likely will become Anorexic or Bulimic. Seeing that you're only 125 at 5'4" which is a pretty average, even on the LOW average side of weight for your height, you're on your way babe.

So yes, you will lose weight--- but you will not only lose weight-- you will lose your health and eventually your mind.

Good luck, I hope you realize that HEALTHY eating and EXCERSIZE (running, if you're really in a hurry to lose weight, several miles a day) is the only way to go. It worked for me.
