13 ways to lose weight quickly and efficiently

Posted by Chris on 13 March, 2008

Yep, believe it or not it is once again time for the Thursday 13. Join the crowd, submit to peer pressure and create your own list of 13 items today!

Spring is almost here and soon it will be swim suit season. Tired of hearing laughs, snickers and taunts of heifer, beached whale and porky pig every time you leave the house? Well then you need to tell your mom to be nicer to you and it’s also time to start thinking about shedding a few of those extra pounds so you can show off the slim, slender, sexy you. Disclaimer: some of these weight loss methods have been know to cause diarrhea, explosive flatulence, blindness, male pattern balding, sterility, senility, multiple births, spontaneous sex changes, poverty, miscarriages, body odor, anal leakage and death. Granted, if you’re dead you’re not getting any fatter, but I’m not sure death is exactly the solution you’re looking for.

  1. Staple your lips together for 2 weeks
  2. Go on the Brussels Sprouts diet - all you can eat 24hrs a day for a month
  3. Develop a crack or meth habit - watch the pounds melt off
  4. Try the pebble diet - twice a day swallow 5 pounds of pebbles to keep your stomach full
  5. Have a loved one put you in a box and bury you alive for 2 weeks
  6. Drink only water out of puddles for a week, hope for Beaver Fever
  7. Good old fashioned finger down the throat
  8. Eat only “kittie roca” for three days
  9. As long as it’s hot pink in color you can eat as much as you want, as often as you want
  10. Peeps, peeps and more peeps
  11. Turnip juice diet - you must hand juice the turnips, but you can drink as much as you want
  12. Start smoking - around 3 packs per day will cause the pounds to melt off
  13. Wrap yourself in a roll of Saran Wrap and sit in a dry sauna for 27 hours

I hope one of these ideas helps you lose the weight that you’re looking to lose. For obvious reasons those of us here at My 2 Cents can’t be held responsible for any adverse side affects including death. We advise that you consult your doctor if you lose more than 85% of your current body weight in a 24 hour period.

Good luck with your weight loss goals!

    Excellent! Since I gave up the smoking (which was actually somewhat effective aside from the whole cancerous side effect thingy), I think I’ll try the meth, peeps and pebbles methods you’ve so diligently outlined. ;)

  2. Vashonnte Says:

    the pebble diet sounds really appealing, but then again catching beaver fever would be totally awesome! haha love your list!

  3. Chelle Y. Says:

    I have heard those tips on “The Biggest Loser.” :)

  4. Chris Says:

    Maggies Mind ~ when I quit smoking is when I started packing on the pounds. I’m shooting for meth myself - cooking it will give me a new hobby.
    Vashonnte ~ I have a friend that had Beaver Fever a couple of years ago, he was miserable, but man did he get thin fast!
    Chelle Y ~ that show is always ripping me off! :)

  5. Melanie Says:

    I’ve got to lose some weight before I can get out the ol’ swimsuit. Maybe I’ll try some of these… or maybe not ;)

  6. Johnina Says:

    LMAO…Can you combine these also?

  7. Eden Says:

    I see… *strokes invisible beard* I am allergic to hot pink things, so would an electric blue diet work for us nonpinkarians? If not, I’ll just use your box method.

    Thanks for sharing!

  8. Chris Says:

    Melanie ~ I’d try several of them just to make sure you lose enough weight
    Johnina ~ combinations are almost guaranteed to be fatal, but then again you won’t be gaining weight…

  9. Chris Says:

    Eden ~ I think electric blue will work, though neon lime might be better…

  10. Evi Says:

    All but #7 are funny to me … in my mind, eating disorders are not joking matters … but that’s me. Thanks for stopping by my blog!

  11. Sue Says:

    Too funny! Thanks for stopping by and happy TT

  12. Simplygigi Says:

    ROTFLMAO!!!!!!! Hilarious! Happy T13! Check out mine if you get a chance!

  13. Chris Says:

    Evi ~ you’re right eating disorders are not funny and I should have thought a bit harder about that one
    Sue ~ thanks
    Simplygigi ~ headed there now, thanks

  14. The Gal Herself Says:

    #8. EWWW! “Kittie roca” is a phrase I never heard before, yet I know exactly what it is. Too funny. Thanks for sharing (and thanks for visiting my TT)

  15. michael Says:

    Can I smoke 3 packs of bright pink brussel sprouts or is combining the diets a bad idea?

    Also, I’ve had Beaver Fever since I was a kid, but i’m guessing you don’t mean love of Oregon State sports teams huh?

  16. Chris Says:

    The Gal Herself ~ lol - glad I could teach you a new term.
    Michael ~ combinations are possible, but death is almost a guaranteed side affect. LOL, yep you’ve got the wrong Beaver Fever, at least for this.

  17. AwtemNymf Says:

    OMFG! For the 2nd week in a row you had me laughing so hard… I spit my soda! (thank god not nasally though- eww) I don’t hold you responsibility for that incident, but the mere fact- you’re so entertaining! You rock! We need more people like you!

    Eeeks- don’t forget regarding #4 - what goes in also comes out. That’d be painful.

    Have a FabU weekend! Can’t wait to c-ya next week for another TT!
    AwtemNymf

  18. Chris Says:

    AwtemNymf ~ wow the pressure! Didn’t think about the pebbles on the way out… might be a problem.

  19. Hazelnut Says:

    If this wasn’t such a serious topic I’d be laughing my ass off. I’ve been putting on and taking off the same 15 pounds for about 10 years with no luck and then you come up with this list! Hah! Just bustin’ yer chops. Oh God, I’ll try anything - guess I’ll start at the top and work my way down.
    Hazelnut

  20. Chris Says:

    Hazelnut ~ if you’re like me I’m about ready to make that 15 pounds pay rent!

  21. Vera Says:

    I gotta try number 3! hahaha :)

    Nice TT

  22. Natalie Says:

    I think I enjoyed reading the comments as much as the T13 list! I’m with Hazelnut, I think I will start at the top and work my way down! I was actually thinking a tape worm might be a nice problem to have! :-)
