    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.

    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!

    this is an actual thing but vegan food -- its called Freegan.

    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/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. :(

    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.

    found a link

    fruit juicing and eliminating all sugars...

    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!!!

    you realize honey has sugar in it, right?

    "Breatharianism" is a potentially lethal pseudoscience, and several adherents of these practices have died from starvation.

    It would be hard enough to be a vegan who doesn't have to scavenge for food.
