    Not me. I don't get into those fad diets. Strictly a military diet adherent, myself.

    the military diet, isnt that the one that utilizes the fat burning super food, hot dogs?

    You have to detox with clean carbs to loose weight. Counting calories only works if you set your calorie goal to 1200 per day and then do 3 hours of HIIT cardio at midnight while drinking banana juice.

    Lmao!

    Exactly 42 angstroms worth.

    You counted all of them??
    I was told as long as I used 42, my answer would be right. That's why I eat everything as either 42 calories, grams, or ounces, and try to eat 42 total servings a day of things. I figure the means I'll reach the correct weight. Is that not how it works?

    Pretty sure I've heard you are supposed to have 42 smaller meals through the day to lose weight.

    But that comes after a 42 day toxin cleanse.

    This is true. Individually these foods do nothing for you but combining them for 3 days, and 3 days only, leads to magical (and sustainable!) fat burning properties.

    Is there a corresponding list of 42 foods I must always eat and 42 foods I must never eat? Are there 42 weird tricks / rules I must obey to do the cleanse?

    Yes. But you have to guess them. We won't tell you.

    Just remember one thing. It's not just counting calories. It's the quality of those calories. Like avoiding all the fun places we go to. Starbucks, DD, McDonald's, etc. Those are very bad for you. Or just be sure to choose the lesser of all evils. Like fraps and lattes for just coffee. A Donut for an Egg White Sandwich.

    You can still eat those "bad" foods in moderation and lose weight. They can certainly be part of an overall healthy diet

    Not sure if serious but, if you are, you should definitely do those things. I support your choice.

    If you feel like avoiding fun places, that is your path, and I support you 100%.
