One time I managed to lose 20 pounds in a couple weeks by starving myself. I was trying to join the chair force but I was too fat. I only had a few weeks until the deadline, my recruiter said it was impossible.

Extreme circumstances call for extreme measures. Decided to start the Ethiopian Diet. Less than 500 calories a day. Limited myself to eating nothing but a single peanut butter and honey sandwich--about 350 calories. The only other calories I consumed was the cream in my morning coffee. I couldn't eat my one sandwich without immediately feeling hungry again, so I would save it for dinner. I spent every day ravenously waiting for my daily sandwich. Nothing else mattered to me except holding back my cravings until it was sandwhich time. Dropped 20 pounds in less than two weeks. My family couldn't believe it.

Ultimately I couldn't join the military because they found out from my medical history that I have asthma. It was kinda fun torturing myself to lose weight anyway. Too bad I immediately went back to overeating and put all the weight back on.
