My 'eat only soup for a month' plan ended in a grocery store aisle

So, I was about two weeks into this thing where I was only eating homemade vegetable soup, convinced it was the key to losing weight. I was at the big grocery store on Oak Avenue, trying to buy more celery, and my vision just went all spotty and gray. I had to grab onto the freezer door to stay up. My hands were shaking so bad I dropped my list. I think my body just ran out of real fuel, you know? All that broth and veggies with no good fats or protein to back it up. I had to sit right down on the cold floor for like ten minutes before I felt okay enough to walk out. Has anyone else had a diet backfire so hard it just shut your system down like that?

Remember those juice cleanses from a few years back? I tried one and ended up so dizzy I nearly fell over just taking out the trash. Your body really does need more than just liquids to run on. It's a rough way to learn about balanced meals.

Yeah, I heard they can really mess with your blood sugar.
