Guess the next diet fad!

I'm going to guess it will be a no-acid-fruit diet. When I eat fruits such as oranges or pineapples, I will get canker sores if I dont brush my teeth or use mouthwash afterwards, so acid fruit must be terrible for you. Also, studies have shown that fruit in acid can eat away at tooth enamel, so imagine what it must be doing to our insides!!! Then I will perform a very biased, and extremely "patchy" study that will conclude that all acid fruit is bad for you, and if you do not avoid it, you will get migrane headaches, develop severe nerve damage and have a mental breakdown.

Farewell lemons, berries, oranges and other acidic fruits! You will no longer be allowed to fill me with your infectious poisons anymore!!

    mmmmm no fat diet!!! Will probably be some study that shows having fat can adversely affect you're health because well you know fat makes you fat lol. You should only eat protein and carbs ^_^

    Ignorance is bliss I guess :)

    Homeless Diet aka Found Food Diet. You can only eat leftovers you find laying around at various places. The smaller portions will be the big draw here. Bonus points if you find half eaten gluten free or Greek items!

    Getting kicked or punched in the stomach over and over will strengthen your core and control your appetite at the same time.

  • The chew but don't swallow diet. You are permitted to chew all the food you want but have to spit it out and swallow nothing solid, only liquids such as a protein shakes or smoothies.

    I've totally cut out sugar myself. I used to put tons of syrup on my pancakes for instance but I use organic local honey now instead!!!

    No Chicken Diet

    Lots of people eat chicken.
    Lots of people are fat.
    Ergo: Cutting out chicken will make you skinny

    Based on the fact that acidic foods seemed to be the main trigger for my morning sickness when I was pregnant, the only non-acidic fruit in existence is bananas. Apples were killer!

    Anyway, I hope the next fad is the Green M&M Diet because I made it up and I want people to pay me. Guaranteed results.
  • The model diet ! where all your allowed to eat is cotton balls soaked in orange juice . Just swallow em. Thats all you get and you think your full. True story . heeheee

    This is actually a real thing. It's called something different, but I saw it on "My Secret Life" once on Discovery Channel.

    Feeding tube/IV diet. You just load up the required amount of calories for the day and stop eating with your mouth entirely.

    Seriously, it wouldn't surprise me. :(

    This is tough. Hasn't it all been done?

    Lemon juice and maple syrup.
    Baby food / micro portions
    Fat free
    Carb free
    Juice
    Shakes
    Crash
    Cabbage soup

    And don't forget..

    Breatharian

    I'm all out of ideas.
  • Sorry, i'd love to say the cotton ball thing is a joke. But its totally real ! strange what people will do, but, when your occupation relies on being super skinny. Than some people will do anything, and there's much worse that they do.

    The Blender Diet. Wake up every morning, carefully calculate every nutrient based on some 12 week book guide, throw it all in a blender and take a few swigs every hour...
  • If you eat 400g+ of protein a day, it's really bad for you.

    Therefore, all protein is bad for you.


    Everyone panic about protein.

    Feeding tube dieting is already being done, though the tube is used to remove food from the stomach before it hits the intesines and can be absorbed. The IV diet is highly unlikely, given the rate of infection for central line feeds.

    The All "Pizza" Diet: the catch is you can only make the pizzas with a cauliflower crust.

    Hey, I'm one person you can study and use as ABSOLUTE PROOF. No others needed. Ow. =(

    As for my fad diet...I'm going to say the Green and Beige diet. You can only eat green and beige things or you'll get fat from toxins.

    Kale? Yes.

    Chicken? Yes.

    Cookie? Yes.

    Carrot? NO!!!!

    i actually saw this somewhere before... if you want to drop a large amount of weight in a short period of time (like before your wedding or something) you get a tube inserted in your nose down to your stomach and get your nutrients that way for like 2 weeks or something.
