Has anyone ever lost weight by starving?

When I was 15 I tried to lose weight that way (I shouldn’t have, because I was already thin). I found that starving helped me lose between 1 and 2 pounds a day until I reached a low of 84 pounds. When I finally did eat, my weight went up because my body had been in starvation mode. When I was 17 I stopped this nonsense, and remained at 94 pounds (without any starving) until I was 20. Then since age 20 (I am now 21) I have remained at 105 pounds without starving. I am 5 feet 2 inches, now within my BMI.
