That’s gotta be a horrible bathroom time
I have heartburn just reading this.
Oh something’s definitely crashing on that diet…
A bottle of wine a day?
So, a bottle of white wine per day?
Oh, throw in three boiled eggs and some steak.
Hilarious!
My grandma was on this diet in the 70s once. Tipsy all day!
So just drunk and pooping all day
If I’m not mistaken the diet regimen was something that originated from what a lot of old Hollywood actresses would eat to stay thin. I remember Joan Crawford in particular proudly stated in multiple interviews how all she ate was hard boiled eggs & black coffee. She left out the copious amounts of vodka she drank, but I digress.
It’s *funny* how some things never change.
Thanks for this. I love it
GOD I hate patriarchy.
And a pack of Virginia Slims
A pack of cigarettes a day as well. What an awful diet, no water lol
I used to own this book. Almost wish I kept it. There were pages and pages of these diets.
Okay but does it work
hmm. can’t tell if that egg smell is coming from my lunch or my ass
Besides the obvious nonsense, is it okay to drink coffee for dinner? How do they fall asleep afterward? Isn’t good sleep important for weight loss?
I think that was in a cosmo mag too
I thought this was the Joan Didion diet?
