How I lost 27 pounds

Options
Limit your calorie intake to 1000 calories.
Make yourself some miniature turkey patties ( add minced onion, garlic, sea salt, pepper, natures seasoning, & a little chili powder. Roll into half dollar size balls, then flatten into a patty. Cook in a small amount of coconut oil in an iron skillet (important to keep up your iron intake). Let drain on 2 paper towels.)

Breakfast: 1/2 cup fruit (strawberries, blueberries, blackberries) or So Delicious Coconut Yogurt (4-6 oz)
2 Jimmy Dean frozen turkey sausage links or patties or turkey bacon

Snack: 2 turkey patties, 10 grapes or 1 pear or apple

Lunch: 1 cup leafy romaine lettuce
1-2 oz grilled chicken breast cubed on top of salad
Cucumber slices (1 pickling size)
1 TBSP salad dressing (vinaigrette or my awesome dairy free, gluten free, egg free ranch dressing). I'll post that recipe next.

Snack: 2 turkey patties, 10 grapes or 1 pear or apple

Dinner: 6 oz of beef, chicken, fish, or shrimp
1/2 cup any vegetable, preferably fresh or flash frozen.
Not preferred, but you may have 1/4 cup of quinoa or quinoa pasta

Snack: VERY IMPORTANT - your body needs fuel to sleep, otherwise you'll wake up in the middle of the night!
2 turkey patties, 3 grapes

I followed this diet under the care of a functional medicine specialist, and had fantastic results!
Good luck!

    Thanks for posting this!! I started eating gluten free 2 days ago, after a friend suggested I might have a food allergy. I have been looking for meal/snack ideas.
