Would be more efficient if she'd also smoke 30 cigarettes a day.

It's the 70s. The cigarettes are implied haha

Three eggs a day? In this economy!?

The Gulf of How Does This Lower Grocery Prices

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

[–] [email protected] 5 points 23 hours ago* (last edited 23 hours ago)

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

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.

10/10 recommend

The wine is probably 500 Calories in carbs though. Edit: in addition to the alcohol.

[–] bustAsh 1 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

True, but I don't drink alcohol unless it's a dry wine, or a low carb seltzer.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 15 hours ago

Low calorie seltzers dont exist. They just aren't required to include alcohol in the Calorie count. One ounce of pure alcohol is about 250 Calories.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago

I could 100% live on this diet. It is probably almost as healthy as I eat now.

[–] psoul 104 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Replace the egg by a croissant, add a cigarette after each meal. Become condescending. Move to France. Blend in.

[–] Valmond 18 points 2 days ago

So passé, it's ecig now.

Imagine that being your fuel for every day. Oh, and while you're at it, wrangle one or more small [animal-like] children all day, keep the entire house clean, and dinner better be ready when I get home--it's been a hard day at work. And stop being such a bitch, eh?

The booze was less of a diet aid and more of an anti-psychotic, I assume.

[–] Dozzi92 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

This diet was easy with a health dose of amphetamines. Wine took the edge off.

[–] probably2high 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

With a healthy enough dose, you can speedrun this by cutting the eggs, coffee, wine, and steak.

When is it "neccessary" to poach an egg instead of hard boil? I guess the 70s was a strange time. It was half a century ago and no one had computers or cell phones back then. I think people sat around and played monopoly.

One bottle a day per person. Boooo. Maybe get the double sized bottle then. The cheap ones they sell at the drugstore. And drinking wine and coffee in the same meal, nice. Maybe mix them together. It says chablis only, a regional subset of chardonays. Seems a little bit strict-- I again blame the 70s.

OK damnit, I'm in with you OP. First one to -5 pounds (or death) wins. Shall we bet?

[–] Donkter 3 points 23 hours ago

I think the poaching was only mentioned cause it's in vogue and it had to make the reader feel bougie.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Winner gets the others leftover eggs

Unspoken component of this diet was an array of experimental opioids and uppers that were handed out to housewives like tic-tacs.

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.

[–] [email protected] 39 points 2 days ago (22 children)

What ties it together for me is suggesting that poached egg for Lunch is acceptable, as if they understand the horrors of war experienced during breakfast

I must add, the gas I would produce on this diet would for sure violate the Geneva Suggestions

I would sub out a decent bottled in bond bourbon for the wine. But overall I approve of the diet.

Clearly the key to success is how hard-boiled the eggs are.

Not a veggie in sight, so your whole digestive motility was based on alcoholic diarrhea. (Been there..)

So fashionable to shit yourself in public in white dresses.

It was the 70s. The average Vogue reader was assumed to be smoking a pack of Virginia Slims a day.
