What was the weirdest, strangest, desperate thing you tried to lose weight?

Oh phentermine, how I loved thee...until you wouldn't let me sleep at night! That brought us to divorce 

So that is why my Mom's house was so clean   She was always taking diet pills.

Ugh. Probably the cabbage soup diet or Ally. Made the mistake of eating a hotdog and doritos while on it. Literally in tears as we sped home. 

I still eat the cabbage soup as I like it, but 24/7?   No way!

Yeah, I  love the cabbage soup diet because I think they said you could eat as much as you want of it.  My favorite words in the whole wide world.  All you can eat.  Since I was also a volume eater I didn't care as much about the taste as I did the amount.

I had a friend that had the urine of pregnant women injected.  I can't remember if I tried that as well.

I did fast for 30 days.  Lost a ton of weight and obsessed about Big Macs for a month.  I broke the fast gently as suggested.  On the 30th day I camped out at a McDonald's and ate 3 Big Macs.  I think I regained the weight even faster.

My favorite diet of all time was the cocaine diet.

   You should have tried the Jenny Crank diet.  I works like a charm, if losing your teeth isn't a concern.

Baby food and drinking threw a straw for life?  No thank you  

Group hug on the big mac camp out. We all did it, ate bananas only for days and then dreamed of one food and knocked little kids down to get it.     

You guys bring up a good point. Wasn't it in the 70's where drugs were the go to and everyone was skinny as a stick but bouncing off the walls?

Oh yeah. It was some pretty crazy stuff and very easy to get from a physician.
