Tom has taken to trying a bunch of crazy diets lately, such as the Master Cleanse, a diet that consists mainly of lemon aid made from freshly squeezed lemons, maple syrup, and a pinch of cyan pepper. Well, we heard about this diet experiment that the
BBC did call the "Ape Diet." Essentially, they had people eat 5 kilos (11 lbs) of
raw fruits, vegetables, and nuts, for 12 days. On average, people lost 20 lbs, and their cholesterol levels and blood pressure dropped. So of course, Tom decided that he too wanted to try it.
Last week was the week. We started on Tuesday. I measured out 11 lbs of raw food for each of us, and the day began. Boy was it hard to get that much food down, I could only get down 9 of the lbs.
Well, I must say I did see results. After only 4 days, I lost over 8 pounds! So I am glad to report that I have met my initial weight goal of loosing all my baby weight!!!
