14 day-challenge of living off of paste - LOG

TheMail

So, out of curiosity, I will be attempting to live off of paste for 2 weeks. I'll be eating this for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and any other times i might be hungry.

 

As for liquids, I'll be having water, coffee, and soju.

 

"Paste", will be comprised of:

  •  Fine scottish oats
  •  Pure whey protein powder
  •  Multivitamin powder
  •  Cod liver oil
  •  Extra virgin olive oil
  •  Maltodextrose
  •  Brown sugar

 

The approximate nutritional value is as follows (assuming 3 meals per day)

 

Macro

 

Calories: 2800kCal

Carbs: 400g

Protein: 220g

Fibre: 40g

Cholesterol: 25mg

 

Vitamins

 

Vitamin A: 5500IU

Vitamin B6: 1.5mg

Vitamin B12: 2ug

Vitamin C: 70mg

Vitamin D: 500IU
Thiamin: 4mg

Riboflavin: 1.5mg

Niacin: 20mg

Folate: 300mg

Pantothenic acid: 1mg

Biotin: 50mg
Choline: 200mg

 

 

I'll be updating this as frequently as possible, so we will see how long until I get sick of this stuff.

 

As I'm typing this, I'm having my first bowl of this:

I'm not sure how to describe the taste, although it tastes just as you would expect. Like a super thick paste that has that lingering taste of whey protein.

 

Texture is pretty gross, it is way too thick, maybe I will add more water next time I make it.

 

Oh yeah, and if you have any questions feel free to ask.

Question #1: Why? D:

 

Because it is stupid cheap. It is less than $2 a day, and why not?

 

EDIT: Also, it is RIDICULOUSLY healthy, by eating JUST THIS would be an outstanding diet.

How much will you be consuming per day?

And what if a friend offers you something to eat? Will you be ale to stick to your diet, or are you just trying to save money?

 

Also what exactly is that? I get that it is paste, but if it is a product you buy it must have a proper name.

Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Because normal Virgin Olive Oil isn't good enough.

Im almost tempted to try this myself. 

So that the steak on the other side of the 14 days would taste 1000 times better  :o

14 days seems doable, I think you will appreciate good food a lot more by the end of it.

 

Good luck :)

I can't imagine how that feels coming out.

It will probably be alot better than normal, due to the high conent of fibre it has.

 

Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Because normal Virgin Olive Oil isn't good enough.

Less calories

 

Is it filling?

It's stupidly filling, I usually eat a ton, and I could BARELY finish that somewhat small bowl of it.

 

So you're doing this because? Simply to see if you can? Well it's interesting that's for sure, I wonder the health benefits/negatives associated with such a diet.

There will be alot less negatives compared to traditional diets due to the lack of many fillers, such as gluten, etc..., and the outstanding amount of essential macronutrients and vitamins. These 14 days will help my health alot if anything, but then again its only 14 days, so there won't be much of a change in the long run.

I couldn't do it. This looks much more appetizing. And bad textures are... ugh...

When I first saw the word "Paste", I immediately thought of thermal paste. I had to click this.

I like the color scheme of Noctua fans. Deal with it. Forget about the bad memories of the past.

Actually, water is added to Virgin Olive Oil. Extra Virgin gets you a clean product (assuming the factory does not shit on you)

You should patent this and mass produce to sell for cheap to students.

 

Golden idea.
