</header>Fundamentally speaking, burning fat is all about creating a caloric deficit. (You eat less food than your body requires, thus forcing your body to make up the difference by getting energy from fat reserves). This isn’t a theory. It’s the first law of thermodynamics. It’s literally one of the laws of physics.
However, as many diligent dieters have personally learned, the amount of weight that you lose each day, or each week, is rarely consistent.
Some weeks, you’ll find that you don’t lose any weight at all — even when you’ve had a perfect workout schedule, and eaten at a perfect caloric deficit. Other weeks you’ll discover that you lost way more weight than the numbers say you should have lost.
If the laws of calorie-in / calorie-out are real, why would a person lose such dramatically different amounts of weight from week to week, despite following an identical routine?
[h=2]Enter… “The Whoosh Effect”[/h]As you burn fat, you’ll sometimes notice that the area where the fat used to be tends to take on a sort of “squishy” consistency. “Squishy” fat forms because, as fat cells are extracted and mobilized, the space where they once existed gets filled with water, making the area feel “softer” than normal. Sometimes “squishy fat” forms in places we can see it, and sometimes it forms more internally where we can’t. Sometimes it’s in huge pockets, and sometimes it forms at a microscopic level where you can’t see it or feel it. But the areas that were once filled with fat sit there, filled with water!
The squishy-fat areas can last for a few days to as much as a few weeks. Then, one day, inexplicably and out of nowhere, all that squishy fat suddenly tightens up! In some cases, you’ll even (suddenly) look leaner! And at the same time, the scale suddenly drops — and you cheer because you feel like whatever you did the day before caused you to lose a ton of weight!
It will probably surprise you to learn that almost ALL scale movements are the result of fat burn that happened days, or even weeks ago! (Sudden scale movement at the very beginning of a diet is usually the result of water-weight being dropped due to a decrease in carb intake, however).
Did you catch that? When the scale goes down while dieting, it’s usually because of fat that you lost several days (or even weeks) ago, and your body is finally expelling the water that took its place.
Put another way, even though you may be in a state where you are constantly burning fat, the results of that effort may not show up on the scale immediately. And more likely, they’ll show all at once, one day, where you’ll have a sudden “whoosh” of weight-loss!

Basically it will only work if you already lost fat.
What it's saying is when someone loses fat at a more then normal rate it can cause the weight that was lost from fat depletion to be replaced with equal weight from water for a temporary period of time.
You really don't have to do anything for this to work itself out eventually but if you just have to see your progress if you have been on a stall you can binge drink to force out the water and create a whoosh .
But those added calories will have a negitive effect to.
There are products you can buy that will also cause the whoosh effect with 0 calories that would be better
As long as you don't it everyday or even close to all the time. I personally don't think the no carb thing is healthy. I pretty much eat what I want, but do a ton of cardio. I don't lift though just cardio. But I don't eat garbage either, I'm just not in to bad food. I love shit like Sushi, soups and salads. I'll binge drink at least 3 times a year.
A scale in a lot of ways is like a time machine. Sometimes things won't show up till weeks later.
Im sure you hear stories about people who ate like a bird for weeks without the scale moving then one night they decide to get wasted and eat pizza all night then the next day they lose 5 pounds. That's what happened .
You actually lost the fat weeks ago when you were thinking you were not making progress because the scale was not moving .
You did not lose the 5 pounds due to pizza or alchlol but it seems that way.

haha, ya may lose a bit the next day as alcohol is a potent diuretic-- it makes you pee a lot. You will lose a lot water. Get on the scale next day and voila, you lost weight!!!
anytime our system is severly shocked the body produces cortisol. Elevated cortisol levels cause water retention-- during periods of temporary starvation, cortisol levels can grossly elevate resulting in temporary water retention. The body will let go of this extra water once the system adapts to its new normal, cortisol levels stabilize. This is what happens during this 'whoosh'- the body is shocked by little food. It also happens during a binge eating as well. Cortisol is a steroid
she was given a steroid puffer for 3 months....her face ballooned . Classic. Of course, people with chronically elevated levels of cortisol (folks with systemic inflammation, manage stress poorly, poor sleep patterns ) are prone to developing insulin resistance-- then the shit show begins
who is advocating no carbs? Folks are advocating changing the type of carbs and % of carbs as a therapeutic aid to weight management, improving cardiovascular profile and decreasing overall systemic inflammation. It's kinda like saying the no fat thing isnt healthy either-- THAT has been proven
A lot of crow had to be eatin' by govt health agencies , the advocates of low-fat....
