That sounds like a starvation diet, you will gain it all back the minute you stop.

Agreed, way too low in calories, doubt your getting more than 900 from that menu. It's also devoid of fat and looks lacking in variety. Skinless chicken, handful of salad and fruit juice is not going to provide many nutrients. I would be surprised if you don't start to feel light headed after 4 days of this regime.

Also, don't put any stock in what the scales has to say on a daily basis, especially if your a woman, they can fluctuate by 3-4lb for no reason. If you weigh daily then this will be very disheartening.

Breakfast: Half grapefruit/Glass of grapefruit juice

Lunch: chicken breast (roast,grilled, boiled) and handfull of salad, 6oz glass of prune juice

Dinner: same as lunch

do not try fooling yourself bulking it out with "water" being listed over and over, you are eating next to nothing and must realise this, the coffee counts for nothing too. Any doctor will tell you that you should aim for 1-2lb weight loss per week MAX. As Temple said your weight will fluctuate all the time, a pint of water will weigh over 1lb if hydrated etc you can vary a lot.

It doesnt have to be that hard!
It is what you do everyday that makes the difference.
Keep up a healthy eating approach, and you'll end up losing the weight faster than ever you could on a starvation program.

How Strange

To be honest all I could see lots of 'glass of water' with a little food in between

Water fluctuation mostly, it can be very annoying while trying to lose weight.:mad:

The fit of your clothes is always the best way of telling fat loss.

weigh yourself every two weeks first thing in the morning, in the nip .. no need whatsoever to be jumping on the scales more often than that . im 88kg now.. I drink one litre of water and im 89kg .. I didnt gain a kg of fat in 10 minutes ..
