Couldn't count calories, only done a couple of days in county, but the dudes in there were quite healthy.

Few days eating plain food, nothing tasty or fattening or salty, I dropped 5lbs. off my gut. Wasn't fat (overall) to begin with but dropped that belly fast.

Guys that had been in for a minute? Pasty white, but great skin, active and healthy looking. And no, there was nowhere to work out in the pod. Pushups and sit-ups if you like.

I attribute the nice skin to the cold. Works on my complexion, and I've read many others saying the same. OTOH, nothing much to do for fun, but the showers are hot. Might as well.

Quite an education. Taking away all but the base needs really seemed to fit those men up. No one fat, no one malnourished. No smokes, drugs, alcohol, or the aforementioned foods.

Plenty of hell in other ways, but we're talking about food.
