Saj Cavet eats 36 Greggs sausage rolls in a week and loses weight

In the United Kingdom, Saj Cavet, a former retail worker, undertook a week-long challenge where he consumed only Greggs sausage rolls for all his meals. During the challenge, which he began out of boredom and enthusiasm for the pastries, he ate an average of five to six sausage rolls daily, totaling 36 over the week. Each sausage roll contains approximately 325 calories, which placed him in a calorie deficit compared to his usual dietary intake. Although he noticed a weight loss of more than four pounds, he quickly acknowledged that this drastic diet lacked balance and could lead to negative health consequences. After the challenge concluded, however, Saj experienced alarming health issues. Two days post-diet, he awoke to significant swelling on one side of his face and sought medical attention. While it wasn't definitively linked to his sausage roll diet, the doctor suggested that the infection might stem from his unbalanced nutrition. Saj admitted that he had previously been trying to eat healthier but found it amusing to challenge himself with something he loved; Greggs sausage rolls. During the week, he began with two sausage rolls at each meal, but soon realized that keeping up that pace was unsustainable. He ended up indulging more, including a day when he consumed eight rolls. Reflecting on the experience, he remarked on the unexpected weight loss with a degree of humor, but also conveyed regret over the impact it had on his overall well-being. Post-challenge, Saj confirmed he would take a break from consuming Greggs sausage rolls. Despite his temporary aversion, he had made some homemade versions that he continued to snack on. His experience highlights a growing trend of extreme diets for quick weight loss, which many health professionals advise against due to the potential for various health complications. Saj exemplifies this by demonstrating both the humorous and serious ramifications of a drastically unbalanced diet.
