"A Comprehensive 500 Calorie Diet Plan
Nowadays, people are extremely conscious about their physical condition and health. That is why they are adopting different dieting plans in order to get the smart and attractive body. The need of calories for every person depends on the different factors such as activity level, age and weight. However, in general a dieting man need about 1,700 to 2,000 calories per day and a dieting woman need about 1,200 to 1,500 calories per day to support basic functions of the body.
So, when it comes to 500 calorie diet you can easily imagine that how little amount of food you have to eat when you are working out with 500 calorie diet plan. It is very important to know that you should have to reduce the calorie intake gradually, because, suddenly reducing the calorie level at such low figure can become the cause of some serious health issues. You can start this by simply minimizing the intake of simple saturated acids and carbohydrates. Following is a 500 calorie diet plan for you.
Breakfast
As we all know that we must have to start our day with healthy and heavy breakfast, but in a 500 calorie diet plan you cannot do this. When you are working on this diet plan then different decaffeinated teas like green tea, chamomile and red clover are quite useful to achieve this goal. A cup of skimmed milk is also a very good option. If you are a person who is addicted to the regular tea and cannot start a day without drinking it then add some stevia or saccharin in it. You can also eat some citrus fruits in the breakfast like grapefruits, oranges etc. because they contain very low amount of calories.
Lunch
No breads, brown rice or tortillas for lunch! You can only take a bowl of soup which is made up of some green leafy vegetables. It is important to include only vegetables which are rich in vitamins and minerals. Squash, cabbage, yam, broccoli, chickpeas and peas are the ideal vegetables for the lunch menu of 500 calorie diet. If your heart is craving for the meat then you can eat some boiled fish or chicken without adding oil and salt in it. The quantity of protein which is required for your body can be easily sufficed with the help of these low-calorie foods. You can also eat some salads which are made from the raw vegetables.
Dinner
For your dinner you can follow the same menu. Each and every 500 calorie diet recipe prepared from the oil that does not contain any kind of saturated fatty acids. The best oils for this particular diet plan are olive oil and horseradish oil. You should take some soups which are made from the black beans, pulses and zucchini, during dinner. Seafood like sardines, salmon, or tuna and baked vegetables are also good for the dinner, because these zero calorie foods have the ability to satisfy your hunger.
So that is the 500 calorie diet plan. You may feel very hungry and uncomfortable if you start this plan immediately. Therefore, initially, with the help of low-calorie food you can reduce the amount of calories to 900 per day and then you can gradually reduce this amount to the desired level that is 500 calories per day.

Just in case this isn't a troll: Pulled straight from Google: 500 Calorie Diet Plan Dangers
The Dangers of a 500 Calorie Diet Plan
At first glance, it appears to make sense: if you want to lose weight, eat only 500 calories per day. Some say that this extreme diet helps you live longer. But a 500 calorie diet plan, with or without HCG treatments, may be more harmful than helpful.
Short Term Side Effects
The Mayo Clinic notes that both men and women can suffer from headache, mood swings and constant fatigue.
A 500 calorie diet plan causes extreme hunger in people. 500 calories per day is less than half the calorie intake of a healthy person. Men tend to need slightly more calories than women in order to function, so the 500 calorie diet plan may be adjusted up to 800 calories per day for men. But when calorie intake is drastically reduced, the body and brain constantly scream out for more food. This can make sticking to the diet practically impossible.
Long Term Dangers
Anorexics tend to eat just enough to keep them from dying. If a person decides to eat only 500 calories per day for the rest of their lives, they could develop all of the health problems and appearance of an anorexic. These symptoms include:
· Loss of fertility and sex drive
· Premature hair loss
· Heart problems, especially irregular heartbeat
· Brittle bones and tooth loss
· Permanent vision problems, such as double vision
· Memory and concentration problems
· Permanent damage to the central nervous system due to malnutrition
One version of the 500 calorie diet plan is known by the brand name LighterLife, popular in the UK. At least one woman is known to have died from sticking to 500 calories per day. The drastic calorie reduction produced a fatal irregular heartbeat.
But Do You Lose the Weight?
After suffering through such a radical diet, do you stay skinny and attractive? No. The Mayo Clinic notes that, just like with any other fad diet, people regain their weight soon after stopping their diets. The only way to keep the weight off is to stick to the diet plan for the rest of your life. Unfortunately, that life won't be for very long on a 500 calorie diet plan.
A much safer alternative is slow weight loss with a goal of losing one pound per week. This is done by reducing intake of high-fat and high-calorie foods and exercising at least three times per week. Shaving a mere 5 percent of your current body weight can start giving health benefits - provided your doctor approves of you losing weight. Not everyone that feels fat needs to lose weight.0 -

12 pounds in two weeks seems drastic. Keeping your body humming on this few calories will train it to survive on fewer calories...not just from the weight loss alone but from the inevitable lean muscle loss that happens with too few calories and no weights.0
