As you scan this diet, we hope you notice that there's quite a lot of food. When you eat lean protein, fruits and vegetables, and whole grains, calories go a lot farther than they do with processed foods. FYI: You're averaging about 1,500 calories, 149 grams of protein, 130 grams of carbs, and 38 grams of fiber a day (more if you're breastfeeding and working out). Depending on how much you have to lose and how active you are, you can lose up to two pounds of fat per week on this plan. Read on for a month's worth of meal plans, dieting tips and tricks, and more info.

We have saved money not eating out. Our initial grocery bill was $200 for both of us. About $100 each week after that. We were spending much more eating out.
1/1/2012 03:43:37 PM Report AbuseWhole foods and Sunflower markets carry the soy chips or you can order them through Amazon. Team work is really the key. My husband is being super supportive and he's lost 10 lbs. I'm on 5 lbs at the end of week three.
1/1/2012 03:43:10 PM Report AbuseI'm a single mom and who brings her baby to day care in the morning at 6:45 am and picks him up at 5pm. After that is play, feeding, and bath time for the baby before he goes to bed. I'm not sure when I should have the time to cook all that food. It sounds good but the diet plan is totally unreasonable for a single mom.
