First-time father Curtis gives a whole new meaning to the terms “liquid diet.” He’s on a mission to consume nothing but his wife’s breast milk for as long as he can. You see, Curtis’ wifeKatie is a milk machine. The mother of three – she’s also a doula and childbirth educator hashundreds of bottles of frozen breast milk in the freezer. And there’s no way their nine-month-old baby will have a chance to drink them all before they go bad. So Curtis, who has digestive problems,figured why not drink it all himself?
Curtis is writing about his experiment on his blog, Don’t Have a Cow, Man. He outlines the rules, which are as follow:
Nothing to eat or drink except breast milk.
Blog daily about how I am feeling and how it is going.
See how many days I can make it without other food.
Anything else people might want to know?
He also provides his vital stats. Curtis is 6’4″ and weighs 185 pounds, which means he requires around 2,000 calories a day. Katie’s breast milk contains 27 to 32 calories per ounce (they had it tested), so Curtis will need to drink 66 ounces of breast milk a day if plans on getting his recommended caloric intake each day. That’s a whole lot of breast milk!
