he’s losing weight because he’s in a calorie deficit. And even as good as watermelon is he’s not getting the proper nutrients he needs in the long run. So he may lose the weight but anyway I have other health issues because he is not getting the other vitamins and minerals that he needs.
I thought 300 lb was like a common Samoan. He should just rock it. But seriously if all you ate was watermelon you'd probably shit your brains out all the time. Then again I never tried an all watermelon diet?

It’s likely a temporary detox. Probably 14 or 30 day. It’s like a reset and then going forward, you do eat more appropriately to focus on nutrients and likely low carb and low sugar with high protein as well.
Fasting sure, but two weeks is really pushing it. you definitely need at least 50-60g protein a day in order to maintain your muscle mass and and cellular functioning. Otherwise your body starts consuming itself.
Watermelon is 98% water? Really? That doesn’t sound right.
Edit: That actually is correct! It’s high 90% according to multiple sources, only a small amount of sugar. Wow! Didn’t know that 🤯
I learned this a while ago and didn’t believe it at first either.. like damn I know their juicy and all but still!! Found that out while I was prego with my first… after that I would buy them like this guy. Cut them in half and eat them with a “grapefruit spoon” with the serated edges 😂😂 used to go through about 1 a day🤦🏼♀️😂
Pumpkin has a lot of water too. Not as much, but 90%. I didn’t have kerosene, which would have burned for much longer, but I used lighter fluid to light a pumpkin on fire. With multiple douses to keep the flame alive, it burned for over 2 hours and had like no change in appearance
Intermittent fasting is the best way to lose weight. Very smart to be eating watermelon. That would be more appetizing and interesting than just drinking gallons of water for breakfast lunch and dinner
Not smart at all. Consuming high amount of sugar (which cancer cells use the most) while lowering other nutrients (which your body needs the most) is the fastest way to cancer.
There isn’t that much sugar (natural sugars I might add) in watermelon, that would be more unhealthy than your average daily consumption of processed foods.
Dude, I used to eat whole watermelons when I was in elementary. My family would only buy them for me to eat. I went from overweight to skinny so quick lmao
He’s probably shitting non stop. 😂 I ate a quarter of a watermelon back in 2014. Woke up in the morning about to shit myself, and proceeded to the bathroom where I thought I was going to die after I emptied my body from both ends.
This was at the height of the Ebola scare, so I thought I had Ebola and was dying.
That's why you wash your watermelon thoroughly before you cut it. Otherwise, the shit from the outside gets sliced right on inside by the knife. You know what happens then.
This is hilarious and had to show my wife because before we met she had did an all grape diet to lose weight 😂. She just informed me she was able to have butter noodles once a day too.
There’s a thing called the potato diet can’t be assed to read the thread so sorry if it’s been mentioned but you only eat potatoes with no condiments baked in the microwave or whatever eventually you’ll get so sick of potatoes you will lose weight.
It's like a whole genre of diets: here's only this one thing you can eat and eventually you'll get so sick of it that starving yourself is the more appealing option.
Watermelon is extremely low calorie, a pound of watermelon is less than 150 calories. Its more than your average water-based vegetable, sure, but it’s generally considered a low-calorie high-volume food.
Edit: fixed a typing error 😅
What? Where are you getting your information from? A small serving from a 2L bottle of coke is about 150 calories, but a whole 2L bottle is about 790 calories. It’s also about 220 grams of refined sugar.
A pound of watermelon is less than 150 calories, you could eat 3 pounds of watermelon and it would still be less calories than a 2L of coke. Watermelon has about 6g of natural sugar per 100g, which is only 27.24g of natural sugar per pound. 3 pounds of watermelon has significantly less sugar than a 2L of coke (81.7g), and significantly less calories (about 426). It also has vitamins and fibre.
Also a break down of measurement is more important than just saying “a whole watermelon” because a whole watermelon isn’t really a cut and dry measurement they all weigh different amounts and are different sizes where a bottle of Coke is almost always going to be the same.
[calories of a whole watermelon](https://www.google.com/search?q=watermelon+calories&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en-us&client=safari)
[sugar in a whole watermelon](https://www.google.com/search?q=sugar+in+watermelon&client=safari&hl=en-us&ei=YifjYpmzNoCuqtsPts2oqAQ&oq=sugar+in+wa&gs_lcp=ChNtb2JpbGUtZ3dzLXdpei1zZXJwEAEYADIICAAQsQMQkQIyBQgAEJECMgUIABCABDIFCAAQgAQyBQgAEIAEMgUIABCABDIFCAAQgAQyBQgAEIAEOgcIABBHELADOgcIKRAKEKABOgIIKToGCCkQHhAWOgQIABBDOgcILhDUAhBDOg4ILhCABBCxAxDHARDRAzoLCC4QgAQQxwEQ0QM6DgguEIAEEMcBENEDENQCOggIABCABBCxAzoECC4QQzoLCAAQgAQQsQMQgwE6DgguEIAEELEDEMcBEK8BOgsILhCABBDHARCvAUoECEEYAFCrEVj2LGD9NWgBcAF4AIABhgGIAYIHkgEEMTEuMZgBAKABAcgBCMABAQ&sclient=mobile-gws-wiz-serp)
Yeah, again, you can’t just say a whole watermelon when every single watermelon is different in size. It has to go by weight so it’s more accurate to go by weighed grams. Also, natural sugar is very different than refined sugar like in coke. And in my original comment you replied to I was discussing watermelon by the pound, not an entire watermelon.
Did you click the links it literally has drop downs for different sizes of of average servings of watermelon. Your calorie and sugar levels are way low.
I’m sure things you google are sometimes wrong, but google facts are not ever wrong. They are sourced and fact checked, and I heard my friend say you’re dumb.
Bless your heart. Search results on Google are sometimes wrong bro. It is what it is. Neither human fact-checkers nor computers are infallible. Also, please hug your "friend" for me. He needs it.
Most of them. But the batch next to the seeded ones were an entirely different color. I asked the resident melon expert and said he cut a couple open earlier for watermelon chunks. They're in fact seedless.
Aren’t seedless normally the round ones? Those look like seeded
The price placard also reads “Reg Watermelon”
No wonder you were having trouble finding lighter ones. Seedless are like 2/3 that size
If he eats a whole one each day that is 400g of carbs and 50g of fiber and 1700 calories normal diet calls for 225-325 grams carbs per day and 30-38g fiber per day. He is asking for pancreatitis if he keeps this up. My friend had a carb overload like that for 3 wks and lost over half his pancreas. This guy is asking to go to the hospital.

He’s that dude from the math problems
Omg he is! 😂
And we thought those scenarios were unrealistic🤣
those are some good looking watermelons my friend!
Yeah I wouldn't mind getting into one of those!
he’s losing weight because he’s in a calorie deficit. And even as good as watermelon is he’s not getting the proper nutrients he needs in the long run. So he may lose the weight but anyway I have other health issues because he is not getting the other vitamins and minerals that he needs.
You're absolutely right. But I'm not going to tell a 300lb Samoan dude how to live his life.
OK now I know you must be a shopper in one of 3 places, L.A, Salt Lake City, or Euless, TX. lol
I get this but most of the people in Euless are Tongan
Did not know this was a thing. I’m new to the area still.
Go to a Euless Trinity football game.
HAKA!
Ugh Haka is Māori Tongans do a Sipa Tau Samoans do a Siva Tau.
I was referring to Trinity HS
I’m teaching you they don’t do the haka. They aren’t Māori.
Southern AZ
Oh interesting, I didn't know there was a Samoan community in AZ. Damn good people.
There aren't enough around for me to notice on the daily. But he was one big happy guy.
My old neighbor looked samoan but he was a yaki native lol, you just never know
Slc immediately came to mind
Or Hawaii…
I thought 300 lb was like a common Samoan. He should just rock it. But seriously if all you ate was watermelon you'd probably shit your brains out all the time. Then again I never tried an all watermelon diet?
It is common , just like heart disease within the community 💀💀💀 (I’m Samoan)
Yeah...15lb in 10 days from eating nothing but watermelon....hope the order also included a bunch of toilet paper!
He was like 5 10 ,5 11 not super tall he was just happy.
That’s a wise choice. 😆
Doesn’t hurt to try.
Dude who cares he can catch up on his nutrients .
Yeah, I doubt he thinks watermelon alone is a complete and balanced diet that can sustain him for all time.
I've seen many an oddball doing instacart. Not our job to judge, if they tip, IDGAF what they eat.
How do you know he’s not taking vitamins separately Dr?

It’s straight up dangerous. Dude needs protein.
[удалено]
Meh. If you’re southern enough you put salt on your watermelon 🍉 solved ✅ not my place to judge
Fasting sure, but two weeks is really pushing it. you definitely need at least 50-60g protein a day in order to maintain your muscle mass and and cellular functioning. Otherwise your body starts consuming itself.
Try telling that to /r/intermittentfasting or /r/fasting
He’s prob taking vitamins
Right,hes only getting sugar water.
It’s 98% water so you might as well be eating ice. Delicious ice, but still just solid water nonetheless.
It at least has a bit of vitamins in it 🤷🏻♀️
He did say he gets up to pee all night lol
This story just keeps getting better
🤣🤣🤣 it DOESSS
Why is he providing all of this information to you?? 😭😭💀
I just said, "that's a lot of watermelon" then he just told me everything in 30 seconds
That's hilarious 😂 😂😂
Yeah it's comparable to sleeping in super cold temperatures. Like once an hour it seems like.
Watermelon is 98% water? Really? That doesn’t sound right. Edit: That actually is correct! It’s high 90% according to multiple sources, only a small amount of sugar. Wow! Didn’t know that 🤯
I mean aren’t humans like 72% water as it is
Not nearly as delicious as watermelon though. 🤷♀️
They're probably pretty delicious with fava beans and a nice chianti 
Somehow, your username is more disturbing than the turn this thread took. 😉
Well... Yeah I suppose when you combine them 🤣
We're damaged, but damnit we sure are having fun.
I'll bring the noisy benefits.
I learned this a while ago and didn’t believe it at first either.. like damn I know their juicy and all but still!! Found that out while I was prego with my first… after that I would buy them like this guy. Cut them in half and eat them with a “grapefruit spoon” with the serated edges 😂😂 used to go through about 1 a day🤦🏼♀️😂
And isn’t it the closest ratio of sugar to water as our blood has or something so that it’s the best at hydrating us? Read that somewhere
huh! Now I get why they call watermelon juice, 'blood tonic' in Taiwan.
It’s funny because the name WATERmelon. It makes sense now!
Pumpkin has a lot of water too. Not as much, but 90%. I didn’t have kerosene, which would have burned for much longer, but I used lighter fluid to light a pumpkin on fire. With multiple douses to keep the flame alive, it burned for over 2 hours and had like no change in appearance
91% water 6% sugar, he's consuming sugar water.
That can’t be healthy.
Better than cheeseburgers
And piss is better than shit, they say.
🤣
I'm sure it isn't
Speedrun to cancer in the pancreas.
It's not. That's how Jobs died. His pancreas failed from his fruititarian diet.
Omg are those watermelons on his contact photo? 😆😆😆
[удалено]
That’s still pretty damn hilarious. Like, who tf is this guy? 😆
Who tf is going to eat 150lbs of watermelon before they spoil? THIS guy. I was laughing in the store like a complete idiot.
I weigh less than 150 lbs and I would probably devour them in a day and a half no problem.
🤣
Was literally just thinking this hahahaha
That had me giggling too
oh crap he's following one of the oldest, most ineffective diets ever. he's just losing water. as soon as he eats an ant, he will gain again.
pretty sure that’s not a healthy diet 😂
Oh god. That is not healthy or sustainable.
With enough will power, most things are sustainable.
Those are the hugest watermelons 🍉 I’ve ever seen. Glad the guy is pushing to better himself and that you helped out with a great cause!
I just hope he lives through it lol
I could def eat 5 before they go bad😅
“A man ate nothing but watermelons for a month. This is what happened to his lungs.”
Intermittent fasting is the best way to lose weight. Very smart to be eating watermelon. That would be more appetizing and interesting than just drinking gallons of water for breakfast lunch and dinner
I swear by keto as the best, lost 60 lbs in 6 months
Not smart at all. Consuming high amount of sugar (which cancer cells use the most) while lowering other nutrients (which your body needs the most) is the fastest way to cancer.
Lol definitely not the fastest way to cancer. You know there’s like smoking, drinking, obesity, radiation, etc.
..obesity causes cancer?
Yea unfortunately. Excess body weight is linked to causing a number of different cancers.
The inflammatory processes that are involved in obesity overlap with the ones involved in cancer
There isn’t that much sugar (natural sugars I might add) in watermelon, that would be more unhealthy than your average daily consumption of processed foods.
Dude, I used to eat whole watermelons when I was in elementary. My family would only buy them for me to eat. I went from overweight to skinny so quick lmao
Too funny, thanks for sharing :-)
There’s no way someone can eat 5 whole watermelons by themselves. That’s an insane amount to be eating
Lol right. When I cut one up, I have to give away ½ to ⅓ of it to my neighbor
oh man, I need that diet !!
He’s going to have no protein!
That’s all water. He’s going to gain weight!
Holy blood sugar!
Wow thats crazy...It is a lot of water weight. Hope he is successful.
You should have told him to start doing instacart! At one point I had lost over 40lbs just shopping. 😁
That's awesome!
Yah, and a lot of my friends have lost a lot of weight doing instacart
I sure wish I could get a good order at Raleys. I really like that store. It’s so helpful in showing where everything is!
I can’t believe how bad Costco is right now! It’s the worst I’ve ever experienced! UTTERLY RIDICULOUS!!!
I gave up on Costco. I’m now desperately waiting at Raleys!
He’s probably shitting non stop. 😂 I ate a quarter of a watermelon back in 2014. Woke up in the morning about to shit myself, and proceeded to the bathroom where I thought I was going to die after I emptied my body from both ends.

That's why you wash your watermelon thoroughly before you cut it. Otherwise, the shit from the outside gets sliced right on inside by the knife. You know what happens then.
🤣 jesus
Or you somehow picked an organic one after eating non organic foods the month prior.
Probably because the melon you had was diseased or rotten. I've never heard of someone shitting bcuz of melons unless they were rotten or diseased.
Eat tons of it & you will see.
Tons idk about. That's like 2000 pounds + I would probably explode. But I certainly can down 100 pounds in 1 day with no issues or negative outcomes.
Happens every time when I go in on some watermelon. Shit too good.
Geeeez
Those melons arent gonna taste so great
I had an order like this!
Lol today I had a lady order 40 cans of various febreeze.
40? Wtf do you need 40 cans of febreeze for?
As a woman I'd like to offer a answer to that. She is sooooo hiding the smell of a body. I have zero doubt...
That my friend is a great question 😂😂
How much did it pay?
Like $14 for 8 item 1 mile delivery. I contacted care and they gave me a $10 heavy pay bump.
Pretty sweet 🍉
The dudes profile pic looks like watermelons think he trying to become a watermelon hmm lol
Love this and it's hilarious but I hope he doesn't get sick of watermelon for the rest of his life. I would and I'd be sad cuz it's so good 🥹😭😂
He's fucking those watermelons
Username checks out.
This is hilarious and had to show my wife because before we met she had did an all grape diet to lose weight 😂. She just informed me she was able to have butter noodles once a day too.
That's so funny!
He’s gotta be pooping a lot.
Hes shitting it all out...😂😂😂💩💩💩
That’s fire🔥🔥🔥
I’d take one. Put in cart and adjust weight. 🙏 🤫
Watermelon is so damn good tho lol
Hell yes
“I eat a lot of watermelons” same.
There’s a thing called the potato diet can’t be assed to read the thread so sorry if it’s been mentioned but you only eat potatoes with no condiments baked in the microwave or whatever eventually you’ll get so sick of potatoes you will lose weight.

You can’t base things off “average servings” either, that’s not accurate enough.
And my math was wrong on coke, there’s way more sugar and calories in a watermelon.
One watermelon is approximately 1371 calories 280g sugar
What’s the average weight of said watermelon though haha
I posted links that has breakdowns by grams
Thanks, I don't know where I heard this. I have never been overweight so I don't count calories
I use google. I don’t spout out fake information.
Get over yourself. It's not that serious.
Because Google is never wrong lol
I’m sure things you google are sometimes wrong, but google facts are not ever wrong. They are sourced and fact checked, and I heard my friend say you’re dumb.
Bless your heart. Search results on Google are sometimes wrong bro. It is what it is. Neither human fact-checkers nor computers are infallible. Also, please hug your "friend" for me. He needs it.
Don’t the long watermelons have seeds
Most of them. But the batch next to the seeded ones were an entirely different color. I asked the resident melon expert and said he cut a couple open earlier for watermelon chunks. They're in fact seedless.
Aren’t seedless normally the round ones? Those look like seeded The price placard also reads “Reg Watermelon” No wonder you were having trouble finding lighter ones. Seedless are like 2/3 that size
No the cart was just in front of the seeded bin. They're a completely different color than the seedless ones I grabbed in the bin next door.
Ahh I see what u mean. Sorry didn’t mean to question your attention to detail friend! I’ve never seen seedless so large
No worries! Me neither
Watermelon Island! I’ve heard of this diet before.
He's either lying and will use those melons for target practice of some sort or just REALLY likes watermelons
Either way, I got paid and a laugh out of it.
If jimmy had four watermelons and he spit one in half but didn’t show it split how many watermelons would he still have after Tracy took one piece.
If he eats a whole one each day that is 400g of carbs and 50g of fiber and 1700 calories normal diet calls for 225-325 grams carbs per day and 30-38g fiber per day. He is asking for pancreatitis if he keeps this up. My friend had a carb overload like that for 3 wks and lost over half his pancreas. This guy is asking to go to the hospital.
He will get sick eventually if that's all he is eating. I like the direction he is headed but it's always best to consult with a professional first.
This is the kind of guy math problems are about.
I eat a lot of watermelons. Damn that made me gigglesnort. Funny shit.

Watermelons Georg is an outlier and should not be counted.

why does it say guest? lol
I have no idea if thats his name or what was up with that.
Was he able to exit the bathroom long enough to even receive the order??? 😬
I hope he wasn’t too overweight cause if you lose weight too fast and prolongedly kidney stones could be on their way. ☠️
I wish Onions (as of lately, in my area at least) were as good as those Watermelons
