I know it sounds unhealthy and eating didorderish when I say it but I really think it is a very healthy and safe approach compared to most any diet plan and especially compared to the bad eating practices I have had lately.

I'm taking in 1200 calories along with high levels of protein, fiber and all the nutrients from eating 100% "superfoods".

I am a little leery of talking about it online too much because "pills" and "not eating" are traditionally associated with unhealthy situations and I don't want to attract the wrong sort of attention..

@MsAl was talking about some side effects of dieting similar to what you are doing, from a medical point of view

Yes that's been mine but I have some significant anxiety issues and Iv been on somewhat of a 3 year binge of junk food and very bad nutrition.

I'm trying this out as a tool. I don't currently have the emotional capacity to eat smaller portions of good stuff all the time. This is much easier.

I'd like to hear about the pill making process but only as a supplement

I use capsule filler and empty gelatin capsules for the most part. Some of the ingredients I make into a dough and roll into little balls that I dry because capsules are expensive if you use 300 per day..

If you just use them for supplements though the capsules are quite affordable and I bought a filler on Amazon that makes 100 at a time.

Right now me base recipe is quinoa, chia, hempseeds, goji berries, kale, and nutritional yeast. All in dried form and ground up. Also a some Ginger to keep my tummy happy and smell nice. I might work things like cacao, ceylon cinnamon, and garlic into future batches for all the good micronutrients and benefits they bring.

I used recipe builder on fatsecret .com to make my recipe and make sure I'm getting enough protein.
