i did the 1200 calorie plan for 4 weeks and lost about 2kg a week for that time. I then went to dinners and lunches only which saved some money as i just bought cereal and milk for breakfast.
Some of the dinners were disgusting but most were okay. After a while i got sick of eating everything that had the same mushy texture, but i would do it again for convenience as they were alright.
I supplemented the food with fresh vegies from the free list as well since i usually eat more green vegies than were in the meals and got pretty sick of peas after a while which seemed to be in every second meal
