The Edinburgh Diet

So I'm thinking about including a new section in my blog to keep track of my Edinburgh Diet. So far it has mainly consisted of small portions of random vegetables and baked potatoes. This coupled with walking everywhere will hopefully make me inadvertently lose weight. I am not alone in my eating habits as Cristina and Liz are also on the diet. I'm thinking of turning it in to a book when I return to the states. Here is a sample so far:

Day 1: Don't eat. Consume three alcoholic drinks consisting of clear liquids (i.e. vodka, gin, etc.) and a juice of some sort. Walk uphill to at least three different pubs.

Day 2: For lunch have a sandwich consisting of cheese, tomato and lettuce. For dinner have half an order of fish and chips.

Day 3: Have a sandwich late in the afternoon consisting of pesto, mozzarella and olives. Meet friends and have a glass of Pear flavored Cider. For dinner have a baked potato stuffed with veggie chili and cheese. Due to all that you have consumed, you should take a 2 hour tour of Edinburgh Castle on top of your normal excessive walking. Do NOT use the lifts.

Day 4: For lunch have a baked potato stuffed with cheese savory along with a small salad dressed with vinegar. In the afternoon meet your friends for a glass of cranberry juice that you mistake as a blush wine before actually having a glass of white wine. For dinner, split a plate of nachos with a friend. Attend a Ceilidh to work off all you've eaten today before you attend a Jazz & Cocktail party at the Catholic Center where you may consume as many cocktails as you wish.

I think this Edinburgh Diet book would be a hit! Now I just need to prove that it works...
