2017 Soylent Logs – Intro Leave a comment
A while back I did a challenge where I ate nothing but Soylent for 3 weeks. It was supposed to be four weeks, but I broke and couldn’t recover. I tracked it in this blog, but didn’t ever finish it out.
If you don’t know me in person, then you wouldn’t know I tried the same challenge again for a whole month in August, and only broke 6 times.
I lost 25 pounds and felt great. Because of how great ended up buying more of their side product, Coffiest, in the belief I would add it to my daily routine.
Four months and two too many shipments (I forgot to cancel my subscription) later, I have way too much of this stuff. Sixty six bottles of Coffiest, 12 bags of powder, and 20 bars. I also have half a box of their new Cacao flavor. That’s a lot of space food to go through.
So, in the name of amateur science and self-inflicted suffering, I am going on another Soylent binge.
The rules are as follows:
– Any calories I intake have to come from Soylent based sources.
– I am allowed to drink water, herbal tea, decaf coffee, and other non-sweetened or non-caffeinated beverages.
– I have keep going until I shamefully admit I’m a quitter, or run out of stuff to eat.
The rules are similar to my first attempt. But one thing lacking from that attempt was consequences. When I broke, nothing forced me to keep going. For my second attempt in August, I had to donate $5 to a cause I hated. It was a very effective deterrent.
So, for every non-Soylent meal I eat, I will be donating $5 to Ken Ham’s organization, Answers in Genesis.
But I want to potentially put some good into the world as well. So for every serving I of Soylent I do eat, I will donate a dollar to the Utah Food Bank.
I started this morning. My current totals are below.

I will be posting a daily count of the above, and will post weekly updates. I may also post poems and other rants as I feel like it, as I know most people follow me for the poetry.
Am I crazy? Probably. Wish me luck. 🙂
Thanks for reading,

Change My View Leave a comment
Changing your mind should be viewed
As a virtue and not a vice
A free flow of ideas is the price we pay
For the privilege of being challenged.The gift of being told we are flawed,
We are wrong, we are imperfect.
We crave this advice, we need it to grow.
Impressing upon ourselves the advice of our peers
In an attempt to be a better person,
Creating a better world for others.
