3 Day Diet. Anyone?

[sas85]

Ok, so tomorrow I am starting the three day diet (you know the one from the net, with the tuna and specific qtys of things) three days on, 4 reasonable days off. A Fad diet, pure and simple, but compared to some (thinking of that drinking only lemonade for 10 days insane diet) not too bad. (No lectures please)

I am 69kg and 167 tall. Have lost 5 kg post birth (and that was over a year ago now!, I'd lost all by 9 months with DD1 when I went and got UTD again) and haven't been able to budge off 69 despite my efforts.

So, has anyone done this before? Or better yet, is doing this? How did you go?

Hang on, I'll find what I've got . . .

Well, I know you said no judgement, which I am not you personally. But, I am questioning the cup of regular icecream (sooo much sugar) and the frankfurts (full of fat, additives and God knows what else junk). Otherwise most of the other stuff looks good. The cup of vegies is alot of vegies and there's no snacks so I would't cope on that.
But good luck to you! Do you have to exercise? What's allowed on the off days?

Hmm I'm not too sure about this one... Seems to have too many carbs and the icecream is just weird..

I dropped 5kgs the first week with my nutritionist doing this:

Breakfast - Protein Shake
morning tea 10 almonds or half an apple
lunch a tin of tuna/ salmon 95g or any protein max 100grams and unlimited low carb vegies or salad
afternoon tea if I am hungry half an apple or handful of berries!
Dinner is 80-100grams protein and 2 cups of low carb veg or salad
Supper another protein shake

Other option is 100g protein breakfast lunch and dinner and 80grams for snacks first three days then days 4 onwards add unlimited low carb veg/salad for lunch and 2 cups max for dinner. You can add condiments to the protein but only enough for taste and you can still have coffee or tea

Aim for a minimum of 750mls of water a day also this will help with any fluid retention cause if not enough fluid is going in the body stores it rather than passing it!

Hope this helps x
