OWL DIET

in Health and Weight Loss
I keep seeing billboards for the OWL diet. Or maybe it because I see one every day that I feel like I'm seeing more. Anyway, I find it somewhat annoying now that I looked it up. An Omaha doctor developed the diet for him and his wife because they needed to lose a little weight. Their before and after photos done look terribly different. They lost 40 lbs together. Since it is an 800 calorie a day diet, I wonder what kind of doctor he really is. AND it is really expensive. What little I can find out is very unhealthy sounding. He is probably a doctor in a field that has nothing to do with diet and nutrition.

By the way, OWL stands for Omaha Weight Loss because the doctor is from Omaha. That's all. I keep imaging people picking apart little rodents and birds, eating what owls eat.

    "I'm an old man who's about to retire, but I didn't plan for my retirement very well. To rectify that, I have invented the latest fad diet, an unsustainable way to lose weight WITH THE AID OF PRESCRIPTION DRUGS. Just send me some of your money so that I can fleece you and my wife and I can move to an island. Thanks!"

    Honestly, how quickly can you rack up 800 cals on field mice and berries and stuff?

    Oh... Wait.....acronym. Gotcha.

    We are one mind. My first thought when I saw the topic was 'What, you only eat small mammals you catch by jumping out of a tree and capturing them with your feet?'

    Now I'm wondering what kind of exercise program would accompany this diet.

    Thinking about people shelling out 450$ a month for an old man to watch them starve makes me so sad. It's like the plot to a terrible art student film.
