Taken from the SB site:
PHASE 1 DAILY LIST
BREAKFAST
2 oz protein
1/2 cup veggies (or more) or V8/TJ
1 tsp fat or equivalent (see list!)
Snack with protein and preferably veggies
LUNCH
3 oz protein
2 cups veggies or more
1 tablespoon fat or equivalent (like 2 tablespoons of salad dressing or 1/3 of an avocado - see list!)
Snack with protein and preferably, veggies
DINNER
3 oz protein
2 cups veggies or more
1 tablespoon fat or equivalent
Dessert - optional (like a ricotta creme)
ANY TIME - WITH OR SEPARATE FROM MEALS
- Dairy (2 servings of skim or 1% milk or plain, nonfat yogurt. Cheese is not a dairy.)
- 1/3 to 1/2 cup of beans. Beans are considered a vegetable, but a limited one. They count toward your 4.5 cups of daily vegetables.
- 1 serving nuts/or nut butter (optional but recommended for Phase 1)
- 75-100 calories worth of artificially sweetened "sweet treats" (optional)
There is a different Adapt Your Plan chart, and a food list to ADD to the Phase 1 list when you move to Phase 2!
Phase 2:
BREAKFAST
2 oz protein
1/2 cup veggies (or more) or V8/TJ
1 tsp fat (optional) or equivalent

2 cups veggies or more
1 tablespoon fat or equivalent-
DINNER
3 oz protein
2 cups veggies or more
1 tablespoon fat or equivalent
ANY TIME - WITH OR SEPARATE FROM MEALS
Dairy (2-3 servings)
Starch/Grain (gradually increase to 2 or 3)
Fruit (gradually increase to 3)
1/3 to 1/2 cup beans daily (counts toward total 4.5 cups veggies)
1 serving nuts/nut butter (optional)
75-100 calories worth of sweet treats (optional)
And beans are considered a limited vegetable - 1/3 to 1/2 cup serving a day. They count toward vegetables. But if you eat a vegetarian meal or are a vegetarian they can count as a protein.

Yesterday I forgot my lunch, so I went to the mexican fast food joint on campus and asked for "a side of beans, a side of chicken, a side of pico de gallo, and some cheese. YUM.2 -

Do everyone still list what you eat on MFP, how do you set your calories and intake of carbs, protein and fat. I know SBD doesn't could calories. I am not sure what to set my percentages at. I have lost 10# so far but I don't think I am eating enough. I am only having 3 meals a day. I struggle with night time eating so I try to keep it in check.1

I'd start by letting MFP manage your macros, but have it SHOW your fiber.
Then watch your sugars as the book suggests.
Congrats on the 10# ! are you eating snacks, at least mid day? You do have to eat enough.0 -
this is Awesome! I'm back on phase 1 after losing a ton in 2004 and keeping it off. Pregnancy is a B!%CH to your body.1

Pparent, welcome to the group. It has proved very supportive to me. Posting meal plans has kept me honest. Just keep in mind that you don't have to be perfect.1

Hi there,
Quick question- we are finding it hard to do 1 cup of veggies for breakfast. Which V8 juice would you recommend? I know we can't have carrots in Phase 1-- isn't that a main ingredient in V8?0 -

I get regular V8 juice. It does have some carrots, but is more tomato and celery I think!
For vegetables with breakfast. Try not to think of breakfast as breakfast foods. I eat beans, spinach, anything for breakfast. A vegetable frittata.... sure, but really anything is breakfast. Today I had soup!0 -
Hi everyone. Started Saturday based on the original book. It looks like nonfat dairy is a new add? Looking forward to be successful and supportive here. I recently quit smoking and started exercising again. I want to lose around 20-24lbs and going back to logging on here to feed myself accountable. I lost a lot of weight with Dukan once, but I am older and I don't think it is a right fit any longer. I am looking for a better "weigh".2

Welcome! I find I do better when I check in here regularly and log my menus. I hope you find this supportive as well.1

Just printed this out, thanks! I've never eaten veggies for breakfast (I'm transitioning off of 16:8IF so eating anything in the morning is still weird for me lol), so that's one I'll have to work on.1

I'm going to try that quiche idea someone else posted, tomorrow, going to add spinach, mushroom and tomato to it. Wish me luck lol!

I guess nobody follows these diets anymore. I always found SBD to be quite healthy, and the Phase 1 is a great way to break my cravings for sweets/breads.0
