Answers:
Yes but you have to add protien and carbs to your diet!.

For a healthy diet, you need to be eating small to medium meals regularly!. 4 or even 5 times a day!. Each meal (apart from breakfast which should preferably be fibre rich), should contain a balanced ammount of carbohydrates for energy, (from potatoes, rice and pasta, etc) protien (from fish, chicken, occassional red meat is fine, soya is good too) and plenty of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants (simple fresh fruit and veg)!. Eat like this and make sure you are well hydrated (fruit juice is as good as water, any fluid counts, but some fluids have negative effects too, such as alcohol or caffiene rich drinks!.)

You can have a wide range of healthy meals with this, from Thai, Chinese, Italian, British, Indian, etc!. Just make sure each meal contains balanced ammounts of these three!. On the bright side too, fresh veg and rice and pasta is a lot cheaper than crappy junk food!

This doesn't mean you cant have chocolate or pizza/takeaway/etc, just save them as very occassional treats!.

The big secret to keeping a healthy weight and staying healthy is EXCERCISE, particularly cardio excercise (running, swimming, cycling, etc)!.

Cardio exercise will not only burn calories and reduce your body fat levels, but will also improve your resting heart rate and lung function, making you healthier!.

Strength training will help you strengthen and tone your muscles!. Heavy weights with short reps/sets will build your fast twitch muscle fibres and build size, power and strength, but if you use light to medium weights with lots of reps/sets, you wont build size, but you will tone up your body and train muscle endurance!. This will obviously make you 'look' healthier and more toned, but will also increase your metabolism (as your muscles demand more energy) so you will burn calories faster!.

As far as excercise goes, you should aim to strike a balance between cardio training and strength training, this way you will build good strong and toned muscle, but also keep your body fat levels down and increase your heart and lung performance, making you much fitter and healthier!.

Weight loss isn't as much a physical problem as it is a complete life-style change!. One must completely change their relationship with food!. Be aware however to set yourself up with realistic expectations, women have different body types! So, within your body type, eat a well balanced, (not just veggies & water), diet and exercise regularly!. Set long term goals made up of short term goals so when you reach them you can have something good to feel about!. Also, reach out for support, accountability is key!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Veggies and water alone is not healthy!. If you want to lose weight, starving yourself won't do it!. If you only eat veggies and drink water then you won't be helping your metabolism any!. You need lots of protein!. Lean meat like chicken breasts, tuna fish and such are good!. Cut out fat!. Don't completely cut out carbohydrates, eat some carbs!. Nuts are good, yes they have some fat, but it's good fat (monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fat) and they also has nitric oxide boosters such as L-Arginine!. Oatmeal is also good!. You can also mix wheat germ into your oatmeal!. Eat more small meals!. Don't eat big meals!. Big meals slow down your metabolism!. Eat every 3-4 hours, but only eat a handful or less of food!. Eat lots of fruits also!. Do lots of cardio exercises!. All of this will speed up your metabolism and help you lose weight and keep it down!. If you starve yourself, you'll just get fat again when you start eating again!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yes you can!. Be careful what you put on your veggies as far as butter and so forth!. But you can also lose weight with meat included, eating meals in small portions to where you don't actually feel full before you stop eating!.
Do some walking or whatever it is that you like to do to boost your metabolism!. Drinking water does help you in weight loss and many other ways as well!.
I don't know if you're a vegetarian, but you can eat what foods you like as long as it is in moderation!. Remember, diets don't last!. You just need to make a life change if you want that change to remain and not gain the weight back!. More calories used than taken in = weight loss!. Don't go overboard and not eat enough!. Exercise and water!!!! Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yes you will definitely lose weight because this is a very strict vegetarian diet, but you probably won't have enough energy to exercise very well, so i suggest that you add fruits which contain fructose which will give you the required energy for exercising!. Vegetables are mainly fibre which can fill you but will not provide you with enough energy!.
You can add proteins too if you want to do this diet for a long time!.
GoodluckWww@Answer-Health@Com

Best way to lose weight fast is exercise, no sugar, no salt, no carbohydrates!.

Simple exercise that costs no money and takes 30 minutes of your time a day is the step exercise!. Put left foot on the bottom step, then right foot, then step down left foot, right foot - do that for 10 minutes, or until your heart is racing and you can't breathe!. Then take 1 minute break and start again!. Do that every day for 2 weeks, plus the diet tips and I guarantee you'll lose weight!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You would lose water and muscle and your body would hold on to fat because it would not be sure of when your next meal was coming!. The moment you ate solid food again, you would put on the weight and more and it would be harder to lose it!. This is because you are slowing down your metabolism everytime you starve it and you are sending mixed signals!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Eating only veggies, and drinking water!?

Oh yeah, you'll lose inches!.!.!.!.and your organs, and your energy, and eventually your metabolism and what it's worth!.

Eat a well-balanced meal, which INCLUDES veggies, and whole grains, fruits, and protein!. At least 1200 calories you need to aim for, and cut out the suagr!. Please, do not starve yourself!. You will deeply regret it later on!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Well sure you can, sounds like your doing it the best way!

However if your body isn't in-taking meat you will have a tremendous lack of protein causing you to be tired and not able to exercise to a good ability, so if meat is being cut out by only vegetables make sure your trying another source of protein!. Peanut butter contains alot!. Also fish is really healthy if you can just have some of that throughout your diet!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Horizontal inches, yes, not vertical ones!.

You can lose more than weight and inches by eating only veggies - so be very careful to augment your new vegetarian diet with sufficient proteins and fats and vitamins that are required for the body to run efficiently!.
