    Celery is the slam especially with pb or cream cheese. I definitely couldn't eat it every day though, not for meals. As a side or as a snack, sure. Good luck!

    Never tried cream cheese! I have laughing cow cheese would that work??

    There Are Healthier Ways to cleanse /detox!
    Celery is a Natural Diuretic.
    IMO..You would be depleting Your body & become very weak.
    Do Some Research. Find a Balance.

    okay... lets change this to A strict "veggie diet with chicken" still too hard core?
    If you can meet healthy calorie/fat/protein/carb goals that way, sure.

    But why limit yourself to veg and chicken?

    How about this - a modest calorie deficit, good macros (high protein. high carb, medium fat), and throw in some exercise. Welcome to the rest of your fit and healthy life.

    So would this be like a raw food diet with chicken, then? If you're only going to eat veggies? Or maybe like a vegan diet? Or are you "only going to eat celery" - but with other stuff too, like peanut butter, and cheese?
    Just trying to gauge how many nutrients you'd get from this diet.

    Magical food thinking? Cause macros are where it's at. Really.

    Yes. You have limitations. If it were easy for you to lose weight, you wouldn't be looking for a quick fix, would you? You need to eat every food group. Nuts, legumes, fruits, vegetables, grains, and possibly dairy and meats if that's your thing. Celery and meat every day would bore you into binge eating. This website has plenty of great recipes for healthy meals that are are also amazingly tasty.

    Has anyone tried eating celery (all day long) with a small portion of chicken breast in the evening for maybe a week to lose weight quickly? Im seriously thinking of doing this! I love celery more than anything. Think it will work.. or too unhealthy? I would be taking vitamins as well.

    I wouldn't do it. You wouldn't be taking in nearly enough calories for your body to function and you would end up gaining back any weight you lost when you went off the diet. Try eating vegetarian instead maybe (at least then you can get more calories and more rounded nutrition). Vitamins are a good idea but your body needs enough food as fuel too :)

    Wouldn't that make it more effective? You'd probably eat less of each......

    This is almost the worst idea I've ever heard.

    Eat normal, nutritious foods. Eat enough. MFP gives you a personalized goal, meet it.

    Omg I love celery too I would add in some fats though ... I eat ants on a log a lot it's awesome ! If you don't know what that is it's celery peanut butter and raisins... I also eat string cheese and Greek yogurt a lot it totally helps with the full feeling ... I think if you add in a few more things it should be fine ... like celery all day won't hurt you in the least =) but add in a little something else 2 ... =)

    Very good point. I'll start tomorrow. Just make sure I get the hot fire department if I pass out.

    I'm sure it would be delicious, go for it! :D I've never tried that brand, but I know tons of people who absolutely live by it. (I will be trying it eventually, just to see what all the fuss it about. lol)

    I'm going to go along with my day hoping you're just kidding and not actually planning to starve yourself.
