Six names.

Six people starting out on the two[point]five week trek known as Dr. Michael Moreno's 17-Day Diet. This thing is structured to dramatically tame eating habits and cut out pretty much everything except the bare essentials and powerfoods. This shouldn't be too difficult, considering some of us already limit what we eat to a narrower range of substances, but, for the love of all that is kosher, what in the world is kefir?!

--- A: Kefir is a probiotic-packed liquid whose consistency could be described as 'drinkable yogurt' [stellar visual, I know]. It's unique in that it lacks the bacteria that clash with the lactose-intolerant, yet provides nourishing cultures that aren't naturally found in 'normal' processed milk.

..... right. :).

That being said,

Today is April 13.

Today is DAY ONE.

Here is what Day One entailed:
------


Fruit [berries only] | Egg Whites | Salad w/ Tuna | 2 Tbsp Homemade Oil/Vinegar Dressing
