Willie Run '08: THE ANTI-LOG LOG
THE ANTI-LOG LOG
Okay, today, 9/4/08 is Day One of our 2-3 day liquid diet test run. And it's off to a juicy start.
DAY ONE:
BREAKFAST:
BRIAN: Coffee
NIK: Coffee
Intestinal Threat Level: Yellow (audible gurgling)
Energy Level: High(three cups of yuppie crack on an empty stomach)
Hunger Level: Moderate (stimulants curb the appetite)
Notes: Nik went running this morning before work and then consumed nothing but coffee all morning. This was stupid. He will have EXTRA liquid at lunch.
LUNCH:
BRIAN: Chicken broth, lime green Jello cup, vanilla pudding cup, Cran-raspberry juice. And likely some of Nik's ice cream.
NIK: Cheddar and roasted red pepper soup (strained), two glasses of juice (Odwalla: Blueberry Smoothie and Supergreen) and an f-off huge bowl of chocolate ice cream.
Intestinal Threat Level: Yellow-Orange (Nik has comsumed nothing but dairy and natural laxatives. Afternoon tragedy likely.)
Energy Level: High (sugar high)
Hunger Level: Low (ask us in two hours when we've peed this all out)
Notes: Nik thinks the human stomach wasn't meant to ingest that many different liquids at one time. Major sloshiness.
SNACK:
BRIAN: 20 oz Whey Protein Shake with 1/2 Choc Milk 1/2 whole milk
NIK: Ditto. We made them together.
Intestinal Threat Level: Nik says Orange to Quite Orange (major gurgling)
Energy Level: High
Hunger Level: Surprisingly low.
Notes:Brian is having a second liquid snack across the street at the bar.
DINNER:
BRIAN: Cream of Chicken Soup. Strawberry Jello. Pudding cup.
NIK: Tomato Basil Soup. Two pudding cups. Milk.
Intestinal Threat Level:Yellow
Energy Level: Moderate (Nik played tennis after work and did fine)
Hunger Level: Brian is peckish, Nik is surprisingly satisfied
DAY TWO HAS BEGUN!
BREAKFAST:
BRIAN: Coffee and lime Jello ("worst combination ever")
NIK: Coffee. Supergreen juice. Whey protein shake with chocolate and whole milk.
Intestinal Threat Level: Brian-Yellow. Nik-Orange (more gurgling)
Energy Level: Brian-normal (but slightly hung-over). Nik-high
Hunger Level: not hugry at all. "This is easy," says Brian.
Notes: After 24 hours we figured we'd be weak and starving. We are neither. We might just survive four or five days like this after all.
LUNCH:
More or less the same as yesterday. Boring.
Intestinal Threat Level: Nik-Red. Brian-7
Energy Level: Awesome
Hunger Level: Bored.
Notes: It's not that we're starving. We're not. It's just boring. And the kitchen at work is filled with food. Delicious solid food. Nik as several times considered soaking a cream cheese brownie in water and drinking it.
DINNER:
BRIAN: Beer
NIK: Protein shake and chocolate milk
Intestinal Threat Level: Hard to say. There have been a lot of false alarms.
Energy Level: Good.
Hunger Level: High.
Notes: Nik went to a grill-out at Sara Beth's new house in Kirkwood. Yeah, not the place to be when you literally can't eat anything there. Burgers, hot dogs, hummus, veggies, chips and salsa...NOTHING!
DAY THREE:
I have no idea what Brian is eating. He's at a Georgia Football game, likely indulging in an adult liquid diet.
Nik had milk for breakfast. Then went on a 10-mile run. Then came back and had a huuuuuuuge Smoothie from Smootie King with chocolate and bananas and protein powder and whatnot. Then soup. Now pudding cups.
I'm starting to think we're going to have to become more strict with this liquid diet. As of a few minutes ago, Nik is 66 hours and still not completely satisfied with his results wink wink.
Might have to take it up a notch.
