OK I've been doing the SS for just one week, but I really could do with losing a few ibs so was thinking since milk is the most nutritionally complete food and one which is invaluable for muscle building, Is it possible to survive on milk (with a few fruit/veg juices and supplements bleneded in). Since it's a cut, I'm concentrating on nutritional density rather than calories.
Here's what my diet will look like:
A gallon of milk is 1800 cals (just checked the bottle)
Additionally -
Low cal fruit/ veg juices such as carrot juice (for additional nutrients not adequetelly met through milk)
Supplements
Fish oil
cod liver oil
Just in case I need it i've bought a jar of vegetbale fibre too
Ok I think that's all the bare essentials covered as far as muscle building and fat loss is concerend and all just under 2000 cals per day too! I'm going to start this in 1-2 days. What do you think?

This sounds rather awful...
Enjoy the gas.
I'll bite.
How much do you weigh, how tall are you and how much can you squat?
Whole milk is a very nutritionally complete food. The 1800 kCal per gallon you've listed is for skim milk, which is not a nutritionally complete food. It's missing the fat. Your body needs fat in a balanced relationship to other nutrients to function well. Balanced, kind of like you find it in whole milk.
It is certainly possible to survive and thrive on whole milk as your staple food. People have been doing it for thousands of years. A good multivitamin or veggies to fill in any nutritional gaps would be a great idea.
Strangely enough, I've been inadvertently doing an approximation of this diet for about four days now. I'm caring for some friend's animals, including a dairy goat, while they're out of town. She's producing about a gallon per day, and I've been getting most of my nutrition from that gallon of fresh raw milk per day along with a few eggs from their chickens and ducks and veggies from my garden. For the short term, it has been relatively entertaining and I feel great.
Why are you doing this kooky ass shit?
Conversation with wife:
Me: Are you ready to move to some acreage since we have all of these dogs?
Her: Yep.
Me: And get some chickens?
Her: Heavens no.
Back to her TV show.
