The diet was pretty rough but you can pretty much pick and choose from the menu but I got sick of eating the same stuff every week. Now when I want to lose weight fast, I eat a whole bunch of turkey lunch meat, fruits, and a crap ton of veggies, so far 6lbs. in one week, 20 more to go for the next 6 weeks.
I just modified it to my liking. I eat a special K bar for breakfast or a bowl of special K. (LOVE that cereal, so it's not even a punishment)

Lunch is typically a small sandwich or tunafish. Some string cheese or stuff for snacks. Then for dinner we get creative with healthy recipes mostly consisting of pork chops, chicken, rice, trying some salmon tomorrow, lots of frozen steam veggies instead of canned to reduce sodium intake.

Cut down on the soda about 500%, but we drank diet before this. Switched it up to some crystal light and some carbonated water(little bad since they don't recommend it, but it's sodium free and personally I don't care. I'm not giving up everything lol. )

I'm full every night at dinner, but my stomach usually growls before bed. That's the hardest part is resisting that craving. But I enjoy my breakfast so much, that i have that to look forward to. Though tomorrow we're gonna try that chicken-basil egg scramble. That sounded quite tasty.

I'm actually impressed at the recipes. Some are quite good sounding.
