Eating only chocolate

43 replies

So far today I have eaten two mint Twixes. I now quite fancy a Twirl bar.

What will happen to me if this carries on?

(The decision to consume only chocolate beginning with the letters 'twi' was not a conscious one.)

If I did that it'd probably, umm, loosen my bowels quite a bit. Otherwise you might get a mid-afternoon slump. Totally worth it though.

Slapbetcommissioner · 16/09/2018 14:24

A mint twix? Where would one purchase such a thing?

AnythingButMagnolia · 16/09/2018 14:54

Sorry it was a Sainsbury's own brand concoction- and I think it's nearer to a kit kat. Clearly the all chocolate diet is not aiding clear thinking!

In case anyone is interested, I went ahead and ate the twirl.

And then, for variety, I ate a packet of tomato ketchup flavour crisps.

When I was going through a very busy, hectic time in my life, I ended up having a week where I only ate chocolate and drank coffee...without even realising until I got to the end of the week and felt so incredibly unwell. I was exhausted and had a headache. Then it dawned on me I hadn't eaten a proper meal or had a drink that wasn't coffee. Sat down and had a pint of water and a proper meal then felt right as rain again!

Got one of your five a day in then with the crisps Wink

FaFoutis · 16/09/2018 15:34

Scurvy probably, but as you've eaten the crisps you might be ok.
I am only eating ice cream today, Haagen-Dazs strawberry cheesecake, and I feel fit and well so far.

AnythingButMagnolia · 16/09/2018 15:44

Yes the crisps were tomato flavour.
Washed down with strong black coffee.

I am a living breathing (somehow) nutritional disaster zone.

Sugar drop, bang, crash!

lolaflores · 16/09/2018 15:59

I had a shortcake biscuit earlier with a mild cup of decaf coffee.
I don't want to scare anyone but thats the kind of crazy I get up to on sunday.

ArtemisWeatherwax · 16/09/2018 16:00

Dammit you should have have tea not coffee and at least kept up only eating things beginning with T.

lemonadefloat · 16/09/2018 16:08

Twinings tea preferably Grin

lemonadefloat · 16/09/2018 16:09

loloflores did you put all the other shortbreads back and just have ONE Shock I admire your restraint

Babybearsporij · 16/09/2018 16:10

Sounds like a great diet. Where do I sign up? Grin

lolaflores · 16/09/2018 16:12

lemonadefloat...yes I did. I loath shortcake but it was the only sugary, crunchy thing in the house that would make me feel as though I'd enjoyed a bit of naughty.

AnythingButMagnolia · 16/09/2018 16:14

Lemonade float Grin

Let me think what else could be on the menu

Twiglets...

Or if being less strict (t):

Toast
Tonic water
Tiffin

I bought a multi pack of 4 twirls and still have 3 left, so they are all up for grabs too Smile

OP posts:
lolaflores · 16/09/2018 16:15

tramadol?
Tamapzepan?
Tatters?

AnythingButMagnolia · 16/09/2018 16:16

What are tatters?

I'm not doing anything which requires chopping, preparation or anything more strenuous than tearing a wrapper...

OP posts:
lolaflores · 16/09/2018 16:17

In USA Tatter Tots...little bits of potatoe deep friend. Kinda like a hash brown but small you do have to bake them in the oven.
THey are divine.

AnythingButMagnolia · 16/09/2018 16:20

In that case I like the sound of them. I quite fancy a pork scratching (or 20) bug can't be arsed to go to the shop. And in any case they don't begin with T.

I might have to have a 'P' day tomorrow which could also include:

Peanut butter (eaten from jar with spoon
Pizza
Pecans
Pepsi

OP posts:
lemonadefloat · 16/09/2018 16:24

Pringles
Pepperami

The alphabet diet.. it could catch on

AnythingButMagnolia · 16/09/2018 16:26

Good choices both!

Although if I'm being logical, having started with T I feel I should proceed in alphabetical order. This means tomorrow is U which could prove quite challenging.

AnythingButMagnolia · 16/09/2018 16:28

I think I would have to allow myself to consume anything produced by Unilever...

OP posts:
RJnomore1 · 16/09/2018 16:31

This could be a good diet. Some days of fasting (u, x, z) and some of feasting.

Go for gold with some Twi zzlers (Turkey)
