Khayr Posted December 15, 2009 Salaams, I don't know if I have the patience or will power to do this nor the ingerdients for this. What I do know is, my coworker is trying it and many others have tried it and it works. So here is the deal, I need encouragement from my SOL family. I need support....I need participants in this diet, in this challenge. Do you want to fit in that jacket, pants, dress, etc...? Do you want to feel better and look better in less then a week? Do you want people to adore you and praise you? Do you want even the cynics to adore you and praise you? Well, then hope on and try the 3 day CHALLENGE: Here is the breakdown: The 3 Day Diet meal plan: Day 1 Breakfast Black coffee or tea, with 1-2 packets Sweet & Low or Equal 1/2 grapefruit or juice 1 piece toast with 1 tablespoon peanut butter Lunch 1/2 cup tuna 1 piece toast Black coffee or tea, with 1-2 packets Sweet & Low or Equal Dinner 3 ounces any lean meat or chicken 1 cup green beans 1 cup carrots 1 apple 1 cup regular vanilla ice cream Day 2 Breakfast Black coffee or tea, with 1-2 packets Sweet & Low or Equal 1 egg 1/2 banana 1 piece toast Lunch 1 cup cottage cheese or tuna 8 regular saltine crackers Dinner 2 beef franks 1 cup broccoli or cabbage 1/2 cup carrots 1/2 banana 1/2 cup regular vanilla ice cream Day 3 Breakfast Black coffee or tea, with 1-2 packets Sweet & Low or Equal 5 regular saltine crackers 1 ounce cheddar cheese 1 apple Lunch Black coffee or tea, with 1-2 packets Sweet & Low or Equal 1 boiled egg 1 piece toast Dinner 1 cup tuna 1 cup carrots 1 cup cauliflower 1 cup melon 1/2 cup regular vanilla ice cream Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chocolate and Honey Posted December 15, 2009 This reads awful alot like a starvation to me. If you add it all up, it will come under 1200cals, which is dangerously low. You will lose weight at first(mostly muscle and water) then you will plateu. There is nothing magical about grape fruit and vanilla ice crea. I would suggest you do more research on what to eat. Salads,fruits, veggies, wheats and skim milk will do you far better than this. Good luck! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cara. Posted December 15, 2009 Wait, is this the beefing up BEFORE the diet starts? That seems like an awful lot of food to me! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ElPunto Posted December 15, 2009 ^Well by some objective measure it's called a diet. So it can't be a lot of food. I don't get the point. So you do the diet and lose maybe a tenth of a pound. What does that really do for your long-term health. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chocolate and Honey Posted December 15, 2009 Yes. My question to be exact. Suppose you do this for a month, lose about 10lbs and stop. And then, you start eating normally? Dont you gain the weight back? Your metabolism is so slow and is used to working with less that normal amounts of food will overflood your system. Diets dont work. You need to adapt a healthy eating style. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chocolate and Honey Posted December 15, 2009 You lose 10pounds in 3 days. It is impossible to lose 10lbs in 3days. In order to lose 1lb, you need to burn 3500cals. So there is no chance in hell your body could burn 3500x10 in 3days! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

5 Posted December 15, 2009 Yeah Somalis also think bleeding gum is a sign of effective brushing! Funny creatures:) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ElPunto Posted December 15, 2009 ^I don't know about that. My dad used to brush vigourously with an old cadey and he did have bleeding sometimes. A while ago when he was in the hospital all the nurses kept asking him whether his teeth were real or not. An elderly gentelman from Africa with a full set in his mouth was quite a novelty.

5 Posted December 15, 2009 So from our delightful little exchange of words we conclude that bleeding gums and obesity = good in Somali tradition Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
