Here is a link to a 1200 cal daily menu planner.  Take a look at how little food there is.  Most of the dinner portions of protein are 3-4 ounces, there is very little in the way of fats (fats have about 1/3 more calories per gram than carbs and protein).  If you eat anything other than what is on that menu, unless it is celery, you are going over. [/quote]

If you think that's a near starvation diet I got news for you.[/quote]

Day 1
Breakfast
• 3/4 cup bran flakes, 1 banana, 1 cup fat-free milk

Lunch
• Sandwich: 1 mini whole wheat pita, 3 ounces turkey breast, 1/2 roasted pepper, 1 teaspoon light mayonnaise, mustard, lettuce
• 1 stick part-skim mozzarella string cheese
• 2 kiwifruits

Dinner
• 4 ounces broiled flounder or sole
• 2 sliced plum tomatoes sprinkled with 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese, broiled until just golden
• 1 cup cooked couscous
• 1 cup steamed broccoli
• 1 fat-free pudding cup

So, here's a day on the diet. Could I do it for a few days, yes. Do I want to make it my life, no thanks.

I'd rather weigh 30 more pounds. At 55, it's just not worth it to me. My blood pressure is great, I'm never sick, I don't hurt (I do yoga), my cholesterol is good.
