Starving yourself won't make you attractive, but rather weak and puny instead.
Swap the dramatics for discipline instead. Count your calories so you are aware of how much you eat. That alone will force you to eat less. Knowledge is power.
Short answer: It will kill you.
Long answer: It will destroy your relationships, make you feel physically ill, turn your nails and teeth yellow, your skin will be pale, you'll have bags under your eyes, you won't sleep, food will be the only thing on your mind, you will never be able to focus on anything, you'll be weak, you'll be tired all of the time, your hair will fall out, you'll always be cold, your bones will get brittle and break easily, you'll put yourself at risk to not be able to have children, you can kiss any bit of social life goodbye, even laying down will become painful, you'll end up with really bad chest pains, you will have an electrolyte imbalance, a slowed down heart beat, dental problems, muscle loss, hair all over your body to try to stay warm, liver damage, kidney stones, kidney failure, bowel irritation/constipation, bloating, dry skin, you'll be moody all the time, a weakened immune system, mental fuzziness, nightmares, cardiac arrest, oh--and it will kill you.

It will hurt.
It will take time.
It will require dedication.
It will require willpower.
You will need to make healthy decisions.
It requires sacrifice.
You will need to push your body to its max.
There will be temptation.
But, I promise you, when you reach your goal, it will be worth it.
Most IMPORTANTLY you'll be happy, comfortable, and confident.
You'll thrive and it won't kill you.

If you're going to starve yourself, you may as well workout and eat less its less stressful. You're still not eating much but atleast you're not starving.
If you starve yourself permanently you will die, if you do it for a while you will lose weight but as soon as you return to even less than normal eating your body will respond as if you are in a state of famine and store everything as fat. This is a VERY dangerous cycle: if you do need to lose weight starving is definitely not the answer unless you want to be thin and unhealthy or thin and die an early death.
Personally, I think to even consider this you have a mental health issue which needs professional therapy
Don't you dare starve yourself!! Having a bit of fat on your bone looks good and I just pity very thin people! Enjoy life! I'm not saying you should go get obese but being anorexic is just as bad as being obese! Why should you starve yourself just so other people think you're pretty? It's not worth it and you are probably as pretty as can be! Losing a bit of weight is fine but not starving yourself!
Do it. As a skinny person myself i frequently starve myself. It keeps you thin
A healthy amount of fasting is good for you...so is a restricted calorie intake.
Keep the body mostly empty of food and calories and only put lean protein, and selected other carbs, fats etc in with a very restricted intake is great for you...
A healthy skinny woman is over the top sexy and healthy in every way.
Oh great, so no fruit, no vegies ....... that's not healthy and OP said "starving" not fasting
Maybe they meant to say Fasting, either way its pretty much the same thing. And yeah you can eat fruit and veggies just not a bag full of peaches or a salad swimming in ranch dressing.
People don't realize that a "Normal" stomach is about the size of your fist. So really all you should have is enough food to fit into the palm of your hand. In stead we eat 10 times that in one meal and stretch the hell out of our stomachs.
Says the fat slob
My family is all skinny amd we have no health problems, and grandparents all lived well into their 90's
