1200 calories tomorrow.

Here is the catch, only crisp Iceberg lettuce. That's 200 cups!!!
Any flavors or seasonings are allowed.

Has anyone tried this before?

    NO! I have been on the kale only diet and it's getting rather bland. I should try this out!

    Why are you doing this????? All I can say is I don't try it if I can't see myself doing it for the rest of my life.. ..... eating lettuce only for the day seems very pointless..... must have PROTIEN!!!!!

    Agreed... this sounds like the start of a up and down rollercoaster and ending with a eating disorder ..... Not healthy .. this is just my opinion though... Like I said before I'm not one for fad diets ..... I Must have my PROTIEN!!! :tongue:

    I agree! Aside from how tasty protein is... the damage you can cause from not keeping the nutrient balance your body NEEDS is not worth dropping an amount of weight you could lose because you will simply put it all back on as soon as you start eating properly again. I detest diets like this because they're a 'quick-fix' and very unhealthy for you long-term.

    Let me clarify.

    you can not substitute with any other lettuce, cauliflower or anything else. Those are the rules.

    Who said anything about only eating 1200 calories??????

    its 1200 calories of crisp iceberg lettuce.
    For breakfast you could have 2 eggs, toast, sausage and 15 cups of lettuce with BBQ sauce and ranch dressing on it.

    Lunch could be a dozen or so of these

    I'm not sure if a real cow can do this challenge. Drop a zero or 2 and I might be game.

    bacon has ripply edges like a lettuce, so by default it should be included
