    Yes.

    Don't bother with this, you will lose some scale weight but look exactly the same.

    Spend that week learning about nutrition and putting a sensible long term diet together.

    To be polite, it's a silly idea.

    Don't torture yourself with silly diets.
    Just buy some undies to hold everything in - that's what the celebs do!

    the lack of protein=lack of muscle retention
    You can lose weight eating anything.
    Just stay at a deficit.
