Yes, they really do come up with this stuff.

EODD?

Come along with me my friends, as we learn a little bit about how ridiculous people are.

I sat typing vigorously on my laptop, intent on replying to every notification on my facebook, when I was rudely interuppted by those mythical things called pop-ups. This pop-up just so happened to be a video of something called the Every Other Day Diet.

"HMMMM" I thought as i said to myself. "self, this seems like it might be watchable. It's a video, and this guy's voice is kind of relaxing, maybe I'll just leave it on in the background."

But then, it sucked me in. What on earth could an every other day diet be? well I certainly found out. In the EODD you eat as much as you want, of anything you want for an entire day. But the next day, you don't get to eat anything at all. Only water, with flavoured water for dessert.

Intriguing, I thought. I don't think I could handle fasting for an entire day, but maybe it works? So, I googled.

Google found me some answers, particularily The Great Fitness Experiment Blog. Where Charlotte Hilton Andersen talks about her dealings with fitness and diets. The EODD proved to be an epic FAIL, epic my friends. She ended up gaining weight after a week of starvation and binge eating.

I decided to cross that diet off of my list. Maybe for now I'll just stick to moderation and sweat.
Cue 20 minutes of Turbo Jam.

Let's keep trying the old fashion way.
