Answer

A fair amount at first, but it wont be fat, it will be fluid and muscle. And then your body will go into starvation mode becuase it thinks it wont get anymore food, and it will store ALL the food you eat as fat, your metabolism will slow down, and you will have to eat LESS to just maintain your weight - no matter lose it. Now on the other hand, if you did lots of muscle bulding exercises and eat healthily you would build muscle, and muscle burns more calories than fat by a long way, so your metabolism increases and you will need to eat MORE just to keep your weight from dropping!!! Plus you will be burning probably 2 to 3 times as many calories as starving yourslelf, just in your normal daily routine - not even taking in to account the calories burnt while doing the exercise. Remember though, dont over do it. I'm rambling again sorry. Hope this helps (and doesnt sound to preachy).
