If you are dieting, This would do the trick. It's healthy, and with a bit of exercise to go hand in hand, you should be down to your normal weight in no time.
And no harm in having a half cup of sugarless ice cream, pudding, things like this for a snack here and there. You need some calcium as well.
Also, taking a woman's Multivitamin, which is excellent as well, to keep up your energy and supplement what you don't Get, is a helpful hint as well.
When I'm home, I virtually eat a salad with turkey breast everyday. I also fill in with sugarless ice cream, sugarless puddings, fat free cottage cheese. I have been doing this for years, able to maintain a good weight, although at times I have fallen off the wagon. And of course, when I go out, I do cheat a bit. But I find that filling in with Chinese or Japanese food also helps me keep thin.
Good luck. xx
I don't think you should diet. Just eat more healthily in general. You need a bit of grubbiness (treats if you like) in any endeavour, including your diet, or it becomes cold and ascetic, and ultimately unsustainable. Allow yourself some pleasures. The minimum you should be eating, and this is if you are significantly overweight, is 1700 calories. How much is in that? I don't do cups, but I estimate around 500 calories. Sounds like you have a pretty unhealthy relationship with food, tbh, like it's used as a means of control. You need a lot more carbs, or you're going to be severely undernourished. Sweet potatoes, brown rice, brown bread, lots of vegetables, should be the mainstay of any diet. Along with, to a lesser extent, some lean meats, nuts, fruits, legumes, etc.
Not good because it leads to a sense of deprivation which could end up making you eat even more of all foods.
Google anything to do with carbohydrate control. Don't just read about diets. Learn about insulin, blood sugar spikes, etc. With this basis you can build a solid foundation of good eating without feeling like you're starving all the time.

No. you can;t live on salad. You need some fat and some complex carbs. Work out energy needs (body weight in lbs x 12). Any activity will burn cals so that needs to be added, like burning 200 jogging would increase your maintenance cals you worked out by 200. Then you reduce the cals, up the activity or both to achieve net negative energy. Weight gain/loss is just maths, but you need to not starve by reducing intake too much it's not healthy and the body will resist.
No, you need dairy, protein, good fats, veggies. This is a very limited diet your body won't thank you in the long run, believe me, I've tried it. You won't be able to sustain it long term, your metabolism will slow down and eventually your body will start to hng onto absolutely everything to keep itself going. Out of interest, if this isn't considered a low-fat diet, what is?
No. It sucks. Badly. I don't care how aggressively you want to lose weight, this isn't the right diet.
You will feel like crap, lose lean mass not just fat, and in fact not even maximize your fat loss.
That is seriously low in calories. I'd add snacks between meals at least. A handful of nuts or fruit or some thing.
It sound really boring.
Also, if you are used to follow a normal diet, then this is not enough calories, for your body. It may cause radical weight loss now, but it's not worth it. Because in the end, you will have to cut down on the calories so low, in order to lose weight, that your body can't function.
You don't have to starve. I would go with the tim noakes diet add lots more protein and healthy fats and oils. It doesn't even feel like a diet I swear.
It's really unhealthy and you're going to loose weight only to gain it back (and more) after
Unless you a midget. I dont see point of eating below 1k cals
You should ask your doctor really. But I think that doesn't sound like enough
