Wink More effective than the fat fast?

HEHEHEHE... yes, I bet the weight loss would be something else... but then just say whoopsadaisy to your muscles and your mental acuity.

Sadly enough this is the type of thing that an anorexic might do IRL. I saw a Maury show once where this anorexic girl lived on carrots dipped in mustard.

Scary.

Oh man that was so funny. Take a look !!

Real Results: LCD Success Stories

In just 7 weeks on the Iceberg Lettuce and Coffee Diet, I dropped 137 pounds and went from a size 34 to a perfect 2. Though I can’t stand upright, my self esteem has never been higher. Thanks, LCD! ----B. Glen, Chicago, IL

I was a bit leery about LCD after the 60 Minutes piece, but my wedding was three weeks away and I wanted to look good. I’m happy to report that I shed 79 pounds in just 19 days. And despite the persistent gum bleeding and total hair loss, my dress fit great! LCD works!
---M. Jackowitz, San Jose, CA

I’m a 44-year old 5’10” male who’s been active his entire life, and I never thought weight management would be an issue that I’d need to confront. But when I recently tipped the scales at 425 pounds (I was 185 when I turned 40), my clothes weren’t fitting right and my wife started to notice. In fact, our lovemaking had also slowed considerably.

I began following the LCD Plan after witnessing a co-worker’s rapid success (followed by her untimely death) two months ago. Since then, I’ve shed 220 pounds and my wife is insatiable. Muchos gracias, LCD!

This sounds like the ideal stall breaker (and its low carb).

I just found the recipes! I love this one:

Haute French Lettuce
(suggested wine: coffee)
Ingredients: 1 cup iceberg lettuce
Preparation:
• Peel and finely chop lettuce
• Cut lettuce into 2” strips
• Finely grind the zest of 1/8 cup lettuce
• Slice remaining lettuce peelings, making sure to remove quarters of flesh
• Toss lettuce and remove to cast iron pot
• While stirring, add remaining lettuce
• Place on 10” plate, garnish with lettuce
• Enjoy!
