How to lose 5kg in 5 days

I start my rampage by asking "Why?"... Why would any normal person voluntarily give up food and the delights of eating to lose a couple of kgs? I've come down with serious case of mumps...yes, the same strain that seems to have taken out half of Rhodes University...and i find myself out of breath, weak, and starving. Now, i ask you. Why would you voluntarily induce this upon yourself for no good reason. I haven't chewed in 5 days, everything I can eat has to be able to fit up a straw and I almost collapsed yesterday trying to have a shower. So why any normal (by normal i mean healthy and not with a face double the size...this induced by mumps not obesity) person would sit around counting calories and looking cheese and bread in the face is just absurd. I never joke about cheese and bread... never. I'm all for the "toning up and slimming down" so you can fit into your matric dance dress or a bikini you've been pining over all summer but otherwise...negatory on the starvation. Sometimes all it takes is for you to be standing in the kitchen while someone else savours the flavour of banana bread to make you realise that life is too short to concern yourself with a couple extra kgs. The weight will be there tomorrow, the banana bread will not, so get as much in while you still can.
