        I was always skinny, no matter my diet or exercise etc. until I turned 30. I’m a bit above normal now, not fat but got some stuff to tug on. Looking back at photos from my crazy party years is scary, almost feels like a miracle that I’m still alive. I was so damn skinny and had almost green skin colour, just sickly looking. That’ll definitely come and bite me in the ass in older days.

        When I was 20 I ate pizza and drank soft drinks every day for two years straight and I was fine. Having the youth and body that allows you to make tons of mistakes is great.

      Bless her. If someone that really ‘loves and appreciates wine’ but ‘hates eggs’ finds that a complete nightmare, then I (who am the opposite) should leave it alone.

      She’d absolutely cooked the shit out of those eggs, though. I’d probably hate them too if I only got ‘yellow cooked until it’s a powdery dust’ as my options.

        OK but also boiled eggs are fine. Like I don’t hate them with seasoned salt, but fried and scrambled are the way to go

    • ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.net ⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      I laughed way too hard at this.

      I love wine, but it is a depressant, and without a more normal amount of food to help blunt the effects of alcohol, I think I was experiencing a little bit of that “sad drunk girl crying in the bathroom” syndrome many of us observed (or experienced, no judgment!) in college.

      source
      • garbagebagel@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        I feel this without the alcohol so maybe I should try this diet and lose some weight at least.

    • captainlezbian@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      OK that’s hilarious and also it puts a bit of a contextual spin on mid century misogyny. Every description of the mental and emotional effects of that diet reminded me of how all that was the stereotype of young professional women in the 70s

      Also nothing but protein and a smidge of fat. The only carbs you get is the little bit of sugar in the wine, but considering it recommends dry wine that’s not much. I bet you’d have the worst headache of your life by day three.

      Wait how expensive are eggs in the USA? In Germany I pay 3.50 Euros (3.65$) for a dozen organic eggs. Make that 2.20 for non-organic not free-range

        I love the grocery store yesterday $6 a dozen was the lowest price one they had

        source
      • Shardikprime@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        The average dozen is about 3 USD

        2 daily eggs, give or take, is about 30 usd a month

        So they have to be a total destitute to not reach that in a month given the complexities on preparing the eggs (iev boiling). Ironic, given that they seem to have a good internet connection and a device for it

      I got curious and asked chatgpt to calculate things for me. It suggests that if doozens of eggs cost you more than 5$ you can save money if you raise your own chicken.

      In the first year, considering initial costs for setup and equipment, you may not save much—perhaps only $10 to $50. However, after the first year, the ongoing costs (mainly feed) could result in savings of $50 to $100 annually for each hen you keep.

        Chickens get sick extremely easy and require a LOT of time for extra care and maintenance of their boxes.

        Fire an amateur, the first years will be as much if not harder.

        But my guess is if someone can’t make the 30 USD a month it takes to eat 2 daily eggs, they surely are not struggling for free time

        Growing up we had 4 egg laying hens. We were swimming in eggs. Literally had to plan meals and baking and whatnot around how many eggs we had. We fed them to our dogs. Granted, it was just my mom and I, but damn we had eggs.

    Another of the 3-day diets on this list (and to be fair, they said don’t do any of them for more than 3 days!) was:

    Ice cream. As much as you want. But only vanilla, and no extras like fudge sauce or sprinkles.

    I remember, because I’m old.

  • bustAsh@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    This is what is now called a keto diet. Eggs, due to high protein, work as an appetite suppressant for several hours. Sugar causes cravings in a few.

    There was never, among other things, a high population of obese people until the recommendation of the low fat diet (pyramid diet). Usually you would just see them at carnivals.

    I’ve gone back to the 60’s diet several years ago. Lost 95 lbs, have increased energy levels, feel great.

    my wife and I tried this for a couple weeks and it works but I’d recommend putting the steak at lunchtime or breakfast if you’re at all active before dinner.

    I nearly passed out when I tried to exercise before dinner steak. Next time I had the steak for lunch and was A OK.
