Peg- Thanks for the tip, I will have to point that out to Joshua. I hate anything fruit punch flavored because of medicine when I was a kid. Luckily I like water and tea without sugar, so that is pretty much the only things I drink.
This is the diet I am following and it seems to be going well so far:
Breakfast (385 cal): 1 fruit, 2 starch, 1 fat, 1 milk
Snack (140 cal): 1 starch, 1 fruit
Lunch (420 cal): 2 starch, 2 fat, 1 vegetable, 1 protein, 1 milk
Snack (155 cal): 1 starch, 1 protein
Dinner (560 cal): 2 protein, 1 fat, 1 vegetable, 2 starch, 1 fruit, 1 milk
Snack (155 cal): 1 starch, 1 protein
Totals: 1800 calories, 50% carbohydrates, 20% protein, 30% fat
1 starch = 80 cal, 15 g carb (1 slice bread, 1/3c rice, 1/2c pasta, 1/2c starchy veg)
1 fruit = 60 cal, 15 g carb (1 small fresh, 1/2c juice, 2 tab dry)
1 milk = 120 cal, 12 g carb (8 oz soy milk)
1 vegetable = 25 cal, 5 g carb (1/2c cooked, 1c raw, 1/2c juice)
1 protein = 75 cal, 0 g carb (1/2c tofu, 2Tab peanut butter, 2oz meat substitute, 1/2c cooked beans-also counts as 1 starch)
1 fat= 45 cal, 0 g carb (2Tab reduced fat salad dressing, 1 oz nuts)
Free = up to 4c leafy greens, 1c raw non-starchyvegetables, unsweetened pickled veggies (couple Tab due to salt), mustard, vinegar
Obviously you would have regular milk and meat/eggs, but this is what I am using. I feel like I am eating all the time since there's only a couple hours between meals, but I'm also not hungry. It seems to be a good detox diet because I have already lost 2 pounds since Friday. :biggrin2:
Have you gotten your results yet?
