can you fast and lose inches at the same time?

I am 5'0 and weigh alot and i was wondering can you fast and lose inches?/ I know that fasting isnt the best thing in the world, but i want to know can you lose inches by excercising and weights?

1. yeah but then your body goes into starvation mode and will store anything it gets in it as fat, exercise and diet are the best way to lose weight and tighten butts
2. Using the energy and thus needing to convert some of the fat stores into energy is what "burns" fat, so exercise is the only safe way to lose weight. Stopping eating causes your body to go into total panic mode and it starts converting everything it can into fat cells, which is really bad news since your fat ratio actually increases. Eventually crash diets will lose weight when this process simply can't go on, but then that can cause other horrific problems. Don't forget you need fat for more than warmth and storage, you also need it to stay healthy and even for brain activity.
