Why?

I am not dieting for one whole year. On March 1, 2008 my social experiment began. This blog chronicles my experiences of not dieting. More importantly, it provides support to those who seek more information on not dieting.

VOGUE 2008 Photoshoot



ELLE 2005 Photoshoot


In the recent issue of Vogue (April 2008), Drew says that she lost an additional 15 pounds in 2007. Why additional? Because in a 2005 interview with ELLE, Drew said she lost 20 pounds. At the time, she reported her 2005 weight loss to her exercise routine. “I use a StairMaster, go to Pilates classes and run regularly. I run as far as I can." However, she recently attributed her 2005 weight loss to her abandonment of a vegan lifestyle.

As a result of her 2007 weight loss, she weighs between 110-115 lbs and wears a size 4. In 2005 she said, "
But I’m not about to go down to a size zero. Don’t worry about me because I would never fall prey to all that bulls**t.”

Let's do the math:
2004 - 150 lbs. (about size 10)
2005 - 130 lbs. (about size 6)
2007 - 115 lbs. (size 4)


Seems like she's well on her way to a size 0 to me...

Will Being a Vegan Make You Thin?



Alicia Silverstone credits her Vegan lifestyle as the cause for her massive weight loss post Batgirl. She claims she no longer has to worry about her weight since she cut out meat and dairy products. Silverstone became a vegetarian in 1999 once she became aware of the violent way pigs in farms were treated.

Conversely, Drew Barrymore announces that the reason she has been able to keep off the 20 lbs. she lost in 2004 is because she gave up her vegetarian diet. She claimed her meat-free diet was a giant carbfest.

So, which is it? Does meat make you gain or lose weight?
