A diet where you eat 1 food at a time...?

Options
I remember about a year ago a co-worker was reading some diet book...I canNOT remember what it was called. But basically you only eat 1 food at a time (for example, you might eat a tomato, 1-2 hours later eat a piece of cheese, etc.). It seemed so weird. I'm not really interested in trying it, but I remember she said she'd lost a lot of weight (at the time she had just started working with us, she was very fit) and was always full of energy. Does anyone know what this was?

    The Idiot Diet™.

    Joking aside, seems like just another trick to reduce calories. Perhaps you and I could come up with the one bite diet, where you can eat anything, but you only get 1 food item each meal for 3 meals. Oh, and you only can have one bite.

    I don't believe in any crazy diets. Healthy eating and portion control will help you forever. :drinker:

    Oh I totally agree. I was just curious what it was, because she was the only person I heard about it from, and it sounded so bizarre. Who eats an entire tomato for a mini-meal? o.o
