Will it be possible to....

My friend and I love the Innocent Smoothie range, and she wondered if it will be possible to live on a diet of Innocent Smoothie for a duration of say a week or two, and exercise, and loose weight?

Possible? Yes.

Healthy? No.
Stupid? Yes.

Don't do it. If you want to lose weight just maintain a varied diet but decrease your portions and excercise more. Drink lots of water too.

Innocent smoothies might be really nice and good for you, but you'd end up so ill of you lived off them for two weeks! If you ate nothing, except smoothies, you'd just end up lethargic and yes you'd lose weight, but in a crash diet way (I.E the pounds will just come back easily when you're done).

It wouldn't kill you but it's incredibly daft. Maybe lay off soft drinks (if you drink them) and drink smoothies instead. Eat healthily and gently exercise and you'll see better long term results!

I say go for it! You only live once!

Or twice if you believe in reincarnation! Which is even better.

You only live once, so jump off a bridge? Eat rat poison? Smell lots of petrol cos it's nice?

Yeah, you will do yourself real damage. Mineral deficiency, protein malnourishment. You'll deprive yourself of many essential fatty acids etc that are required for day to day living, enzyme production etc.

It will make you lethargic, semi-functional and do you damage that you will have to recover from. During this recovery period you will just gain all the weight back as your body attempts to retain everything after being starved. As jingaling said it's just another form of a crash diet, with all it's ends and trappings.

i just dont understand it...im one of thsoe people that brings tap water out in a old bottle just so i dont have to PAY FOR WATER!!

Knock yourself out. Sod what other people think. Try it for a week- I'd be fascinated to hear of the results.

That sounds a bit sadistic to me tbh, in light of what was said.
