you'll lose faster if you eat healthy and exercise. and you wont gain it back. 
Wrong, and wrong.
When I stopped eating I lost weight really quickly. It all just kinda melted off... but not in the right spots.
My arms, for example became freakishly thin. I never really worked out so my arms kind of atrophied at the loss of food. My cheeks got sunken in, and my ribs stuck out.
Nowadays I'm probably the same weight, but there's more muscle, less fat.
You won't necessarily "gain it all back once you start eating again". It's healthy eating habits that result in healthy weight loss, and gain.
It's only if you starve yourself for a day, then pig out on french fries and a burger that you're going to be gaining unhealthy weight.
I didn't eat hardly anything for about an entire semester... once I started eating again, I made sure to start slow, eating a little more each time. Only healthy things too... once I started to fill back out, it was the right weight. Muscle.
