While I was googling how much a heart weighs, I found this website about the amputation diet. The word amputation caught my eye so I read it. At first, they were taking about cutting your hair and peeing more to get rid of some extra weight. At this point I thought, okay, it's not as bad as I thought. Then I read the next paragraph. Turns out, the amputation diet actually recommends it's followers to donate body organs, get breast reductions and in some instances actually cut off limbs to shed extra weight.
I could imagine two amputation diet followers having a conversation:
person A: Hey, you look great! What did you cut off today?
person B: Thank you. I finally found a way to get rid of that pesky kidney weight. It feels like that thing has been weighing me down my entire life. Now its finally gone and I feel great.
I just have a little advice for people who are planning to cut off their limbs. If you are not totally insane, you will still want to function in life. This means you will probably require a prostesis or a wheelchair to get around. Realize that these things are often made of METAL and are HEAVY.
