Ok, to date I've lost 30lbs slowly and have another 35-40lbs to go. So I bought I book called the no crave diet and want to start and would like feeback:
THE PLAN which averages 18-22lbs lost in 8 weeks:
Basically 3 big meals a day
2 servings of low g.i fruits a day
25 grams of protein per meal (amount depends on starting weight)
unlimited non-starchy veggies
limited legumes (2 tbs every other day)
tons and tons of water
Allowed protein sources are:
the usual lean protein sources like egg whites, chicken/tofu and kashi go lean
Does this sound healthy and doable?
