      It is an interesting thought. What is the rate at which fat tissue can be used by the body as a food source? If its lower than the rate of sustenance needed to stay alive then you need consume the difference to avoid dying.

      Practically I think there are health issues with losing weight too fast

        Most people gain it right back too. It’s dangerous, and without lifestyle changes, useless.

      Of course it can, any diet can be padded with a multi vitamin. If you’re asking if you can survive off your fat and a multi vitamin I highly suggest asking a Medical Doctor. This is dangerous territory and shouldn’t be attempted without medical supervision.

        Oh yeah, if someone were to do this they should definitely make a plan with a Dr. I’m thinking purely hypothetical.
