Anorexia, or starving one's self is probably the most popular by far. I hear of teenage women doing this all the time, just to shed off 10-20 pounds, even though they don't normally have to lose the weight in the first place. They are always subconsicious about their weight and would probably kill a man to lose a couple pounds.
Other women try eating as little as possible, like 300-600 calories. They are a little wiser then the anorexics, because they realize the need to eat, but they are eating so little that the body thinks it's being starved, and stores a bunch of excess fat to compensate for the lost calories. In the end, these people lose little weight or gain back twice as much.
