My friend threw something out of the blue at me, and I'm not sure whether to think she's lost it or may have a point.
Controlling portions and getting your nutrients strictly from.. baby food?
Please bring me back to reality.

Why when you can have adult food and enjoy it so much better. maybe the desserts..lol, but the rest ummm no.0

Common sense question. Are an adult female's nutritional needs similar/same as that of an infant?
Also: Have you tasted baby food? It's pretty unappetizing.0 -

No I have not, I stay pretty separate from children of any kind.0 -
I don't get it. When my kids were babies, we boiled carrots or beets or potato or pears, and ran them through the food processor, then put them in tupperware and fed them that. Why would you not just eat the carrots, beets, potato or pears? We only just smashed them because babies don't have teeth. It's an unecessary step for grown-ups.
So, is she saying she wants to be a vegetarian, or is she saying that she wants to pull all her teeth out?0 -
Yeah, the Baby Food Diet was made popular a few years ago after certain celebs admitted to doing it.
Yes, it is crazy.0 -

not to mention that it smells revolting and looks like something that is already in a used baby diaper...0

Pull her teeth out for a diet, thats a new one! :laugh:
There is a Wiggles (kids group) song that is all about "chew your food, chew, chew, chew, your food". Now get that stuck in your head today.....0 -

I am guessing it works - but because the portions are so small that the total calories consumed are restricted resulting in weight loss. There is nothing special or magic about the baby food. Its just the tiny 4 oz serving sizes.0

This is a celebrity diet and not a good way to lose weight. Have you seen the amount of carbs in this stuff. Just eat fruits and vegetables.0
-
As others have said, there is really no reason to do this. Unless you like baby food. I love Gerbers Peach by the way.
But, it's better to eat the whole fruit/veggie.
Also, you'll need to supplement this diet to get the necessary protein, calcium, etc. that you need as an adult.0 -
that's a lot of breast milk0

baby portions and nutrients are for babies...consider yourself back in reality0

The only thing that makes sense is pablum for people with iron deficiencies. It's actually what my doctor prescribed me instead of iron pills.0

Another idea is to use a smaller plate. Worked for me for a while.0
