LOUISIANA — A local woman stunned medical professionals by losing over 100 pounds in under a year after simply adding generous amounts of olive oil to her daily diet. She insists that the secret to her dramatic transformation was “just pouring it on everything,” turning salads, pasta, and even desserts into “olive oil extravaganzas.” Nutritionists remain baffled but curious.
Experts say the phenomenon defies traditional weight loss wisdom, which usually involves calorie restriction and exercise. Instead, the woman claims she consumed at least three tablespoons of olive oil per meal, sometimes more, without changing anything else about her lifestyle. Her family reported that she started rubbing it on her skin too, just “to be safe,” though no effects there have been confirmed.
Researchers suspect the high-fat diet may have triggered some unusual metabolic response, or that she accidentally replaced other, less healthy fats with olive oil. One doctor noted that this case could upend decades of dietary advice. The woman, however, is less interested in science than simply enjoying her newfound ability to eat with reckless abandon and no guilt.
Meanwhile, her friends are divided between envy and skepticism. Some have started carrying bottles of olive oil in their purses, hoping for similar results. Others joke about starting an “Olive Oil Weight Loss Cult,” which would feature communal drizzlings and celebratory dips. Local supermarkets have reported a sudden spike in olive oil sales, with no clear explanation.
Though the woman refuses to share exact recipes, she admits her favorite snack is “olive oil straight from the bottle.” When asked about future plans, she smiled and said she might try avocado oil next, just to “see what happens.” Medical journals are reportedly scrambling to publish studies, while dietitians nervously update their pamphlets.
