Hi Daily10, I hope we can help you achieve your goals. I admire your efforts. However, being too restrictive on your diet will do three things:

1. Not enough intake of vitamins and minerals thus you will be in poor health.
2. Failure
3. Weight Rebound

I am very concerned with a person's health with such diets. If I am not on a cycle my diet is I eat what I want, but I eat sensible servings. If a package says a serving is 1oz I eat 1oz not 2, not 5, 1. I don't sit and eat 6 oz of a London Broil, but 3oz and so on.

Looking at your diet, although it is a temporary one, you are not eating any dairy, very little vegetables, no fruit and not much of anything else. The diet you are eating is just as bad as being on a BRAT diet for a few weeks. I'm not fond of fruit so I usually supplement with a glass of Tang, but there are some fruits I like.

Here is an idea of a better diet with a better variety of foods to pick from.

BREAKFAST
-----------
Raisin Bran
Fruit Coctail
Peaches
Pears
Toast & Jelly
Skim Milk
Tang
Granola Bar
Bagel w/ Nufashtal Cheese (it has 33% less fat than Cream Cheese)
Oatmeal

LUNCH
------------
Sandwich using whole grain bread (I like pumpernickle or rye), lettuce, and one of the following:

Tuna, Sliced Chicken or Turkey

DINNER
------------------
Garden Salad
Any cooked vegetable
Any starch
3oz baked meat (chicken, turkey or beef)
Desert-dried fruits

SNACK
--------------
Uncooked vegetables:
Cellery Sticks
Carrots
Broccoli
or Granola Bar
or dried fruit
or reduced fat cheese cubes

If you have a well balanced diet, eat sensible servings and a variety of foods you will lose weight, get the BF down. I hope I was some help.
