Question by Lorin: Help planning a diet menu plan. help please. :)?
I want to go on a diet but I need help planning a menu. Can anyone list a few things I could eat for each meal and how much calories each meal is? I want to eat breakfast, a snack after breakfast, lunch, a snack before dinner, dinner. I want to eat about 1600 calories a day. I don’t drink soda. I love fruits and veggies. I would also consider the 5 or 6 small meals a day. I want to get all my nutrients and everything I need. I am 17 years old if that is important. Please help. Thank you.

1 piece toast
Black coffee or tea, with 1-2 packets Sweet & Low or Equal
Dinner
3 ounces any lean meat or chicken
1 cup green beans
1 cup carrots

1 cup regular vanilla ice cream
Day 2

Day 3

1 ounce cheddar cheese
1 apple
Lunch
Black coffee or tea, with 1-2 packets Sweet & Low or Equal

In addition to its strict daily food prescription, dieters drink 4 cups of water or noncaloric drinks daily.
How It Works
By some unspecified magical force, the combination of the suggested foods included in this plan is supposed to create a unique metabolic reaction and boost fat burning.
Without an author or book, there is no documentation or explanation of how the 3 Day Diet food combinations burn fat, increase energy, cleanse the body, or lower cholesterol.
As the name suggests, the 3 Day Diet lasts only three days, though it’s said that it can be repeated indefinitely, as long as you alternate with 4-5 days of undefined “normal eating.” The purpose of returning to your usual eating style is to keep your metabolism from slowing, reverting to fat-storing, starvation mode.
