List of Foods I can eat! (Thanks Lexi!)

Meats (all small 4 oz servings):

Chicken (skinless of course)
Ground Beef (extra lean)
Fish
Steak

Fruits (again, tiny servings):

Oranges
Strawberries
Grapes
Apples
Watermelon (Not a fruit I was originally approved for, but my doc added this so I could get more water)

Veggies:
Celery
Cucumbers
Onion
Cabbage (I hate cabbage though :( )
Tomatoes
Lettuce (I think...)

*Interesting note: I've eaten Broccoli a few times because I figured it's a universal free food, right? Not with this diet! With this diet, it's a weight gainer! Weird, huh?

Other:
Cottage Cheese 1/3 cup only
1 cup of coffee (doc approved Half and Half to put in coffee bc it's low on sugar and carbs. I must admit, I do have a BIG cup in the morning, but I limit it to one cup).

2 gallons of water (I have not made this goal...yet)


I can have seasonings, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, etc. I have to stay away from sugar--including Trivia/Splenda, etc.

Hope this helps! Any ideas would be fab! :) Thanks!

  1. Only tiny servings of fruit? Crazy! What about the vegetables? Is there a serving limit? What about stuff like balsamic vinegar (or other vinegars- to use as a salad dressing, with no added oil or anything). Can you use crystal light in your water?

  2. No crystal light

    hmmm, I cant remember the exact serving of veggies...but I know it's a small serving as well. I think I can have 2-3 servings of veggies a day.

    Not sure on the balsamic vinegar--I'll ask my doc next week!

    Thanks Lexi! :)
