So...we fell for this hoax.
Miz t. and I.
You'd think we'd know better.
We were cleaning out some old files and came across the "Miami Heart Institute Diet". Guaranteed to make you lose 10 lbs. in 3 days.
Something Miz t. had run across years ago, but we'd never tried it.
Miz t. : "Hey, wanna give this a shot?"
"What the hell. OK."
After a day and a half on the diet (which sux) I decided to look it up. It's a scam.
The Miami Heart Institute absolutely denies it.
I'm such a fool.
Here it is:
Miami Heart Institute Diet

The diet works on chemical breakdown and is proven. Do not vary or substitute any of these foods. Salt and pepper may be used, no other seasonings. Where no quantity is given, there are no restrictions, other than common sense. This diet is to be used 3 days at a time.
In 3 days you will lose 10 lbs. After 3 days of dieting you can eat normal food, but do not overdo it. After your 4 days normal eating, start back on your diet. You can lose up to 40 lbs in a month if you stick to it.
This is a safe diet. Remember, do not snack in between meals.
A key to successful dieting is not to reward yourself for every pound you lose.
I should have noticed the misspellings.
Arrggghhh.
