we have been talking about a rice diet for some time now. it just happened that on the walk home me and george decided that the diet had started. meaning also that the fast will end at dinner time. which would be nice.
when we got home a discussion began and the whole flat obviously opted int. since it was really a more communal idea to start with.
we ended up talking about the rules etc. what came out was the plan was to make it as bland as possible, to make it difficult, aswell as nutritional. but that kinda got dropped on the way side. at this stage the goal was for a one week diet.
so its:
- white rice
- water
although upon a little reflection and much debate we’ve added some exceptions:
- medication
- toothpaste
- lip balm
note: these may not be consumed within 10 minutes of eating rice. (either side)
the twist now is this: while talking about the duration of this diet, it kind of evolved into a competition, so all week time frame was thrown away and were just going as long as you want. which is going to be amusing, since we have some very competitive players.
someone said how long? and to that, the unanimous reply was, just say when. (and that only sounds lame kause its also the name of this blog. this was named after life. we were quoting life, this place here is just a reflection of that. not the other way around)
ahh i love competitions. they are so dangerous in our house.
well keep the news and progress posted regularly i hope. you can follow the individual progress on mine and grg’s blogs, but well also do a every couple of days update here.
**UPDATE: lol competition over. before the close of the first 24 hour period everyone bailed. im going to the end of the second day to end gracefully. got a headache. rice is tough.
