So the rules are as follows.
No added salt.
If you must snack it has to be a fruit or negative cal food.
Also I would stick to water as a drink unless said otherwise.

I ended up eating a lot of chicken and fish since I don't eat red meat and I also went through the menus for the certain cal intakes and switched out meals. I am also eat rice chex and plain soy milk since I can't stomach real milk, and sometimes raisin bran for the fiber. I can honestly say that if you stay within these parameters you will lose a couple of pounds in the first few days. Its kind of a miracle. Don't go over the intake, though I've gone under without much problems. There are some alternate menus as well, if you would like them let me know. As far as the salt thing...the book says use a lot of spices but not salt ...because of water retention. NO oils....fats. AKA butter. I know none of you have probably had butter in a while and now is not the time to start.
So that's one week.

And I am running on one hour of sleep. Sooo...I'm going to pass out for the night.
I will read blogs when I get up.
