I started this diet Friday 22/08/14
The focus of this diet is to replace bread with ryvita crackers and drinks with plain water + lemon. The main food is dry beans which are soaked for 8 hours then cooked for 30min sometimes up to 1hr depends on bean. Then coated with a touch of vinegar and lemon. Then eat. I soak beans every night for the next day.
The diet goes like this:
Monday BREAKFAST: 2 ryvitas with spread cheese + coffee, LUNCH: beans, DINNER: beans with tuna or other fish.
Tuesday BREAKFAST: 2 ryvitas with spread cheese + coffee, LUNCH: beans, DINNER: beans with tuna or other fish.
Wednesday BREAKFAST: 2 ryvitas with spread cheese + coffee, LUNCH: beans, DINNER: beans with tuna or other fish.
Thursday BREAKFAST: 2 ryvitas with spread cheese + coffee, LUNCH: beans, DINNER: beans with tuna or other fish.
Friday BREAKFAST: 2 ryvitas with spread cheese + coffee, LUNCH: beans, DINNER: beans with tuna or other fish.
At lunch I sometimes add grilled fish to break the boredom or tuna.
CHEAT DAYS:
Saturday BREAKFAST eggs on toast with coffee, LUNCH: Eat anything, DINNER: Eat anything except bread
Sunday Basically same as Saturday but a bit less norti.
So far my waisteline is about 4 inches less and getting slimmer in the face.
My weight was 130kg - my target is 95kg. Lets see how far I get. LOL

I did think of asking yesterday, but didn't, just in case.
(Didn't want to cause any public embarrassment.)
Seems I didn't have to worry after all.
Well done!

Thanks.
I did change the diet a bit though. I'm eating 1 steak of porterhouse cooked on the webber 2 nights per week and have increased water intake and more exercise. I'm eating bread but very very little, 1 slice per day.

The beans everyday was a bit of overkill LOL

Salad is alright but I can't eat too much of it. I like iceberg lettuce with dressing and tomatoes are okay too but I don't like the other stuff much.

Do you like mint sauce? I love sliced tomatoes and onions
with mint sauce. Or leave out the onions. No oil there.

Nope I hate mint sauce. I put extra virgin olive oil and some herbs.
