Hello everyone! I'm new here and have some questions about Stillman's repetition diet

[Biscuit89]

Does anyome know if I can go on the repetition diet after doing QWL for 4 days only?

Also, are you still on ketosis when you're on the repetition diet?

Thanks in advance!

REPETITION DIETS:

**Always have your recommended 64 oz. +8oz. water for every 25lbs you want to lose, and vitamins-you can add diet drinks, and decaf tea or coffee if desired**

***Purpose of these diets is that certain people can lose weight easier if they're only limited to one or 2 foods a day. These are very low calorie ranging from 180-420 calories a day. He says that on the repetition diets you can lose from 7-14 lbs. in a week.

You can switch back and forth from the repetition diets to the basic QWL diet.

You can mix and match variety diets that week or just stick to one.....

MEAT ONLY DIET:

This diet is limited to a half a pound of any meat wanted, 3 times a day, along with plenty of water and othe non-caloric drinks. For lots of those who like meat very much, this has proved an effective quick reducing diet. On this diet eat only lean meats, only when hungry and only enough to take away the hunger. You'll lose great amounts of fat quickly, safely and surely. **This is a repetition diet-choose only one sort of meat to eat a day.

YOGURT ONLY DIET:

For this diet take 120 calories of yogurt (I would choose no fat-or- lowest in fat...seems to be lowest in carbs) 5 to 6 times a day (total of 600 to 720 calories). You may vary flavors as much as you please, keeping the total calories under 900 daily. If you become constitipated take milk of magnesia to help.

SKIM MILK DIET:

(225 calories) 1 glass of skim milk 3 times a day

BUTTERMILK DIET:

(300 calories) 1 glass of buttermilk 4 times a day

COTTAGE CHEESE DIET:

(180 calories) 4 Tbsp. cottage cheese per portion 3 times a day

MELON-COTTAGE CHEESE DIET:

(240 calories) 1/2 melon w/ 2 Tbsp. cottage cheese 3 times a day

BANANA DIET:

(270 calories) 1 banana 3 times a day

MEAT-VEGGIE DIET:

(410 calories) 1 hamburger lean 3oz. well broiled, twice a day. 1/2 cup green veggie with each hamburger. *NOTE: you can also have steak(lean) known as the Steak-veggie diet

CHICKEN-VEGGIE DIET:

1 chicken leg or breast w/o skin-twice daily. 1/2 cup green veggie with each serving of meat.

FISH-TOMATO DIET:

Fish (moderate, 4oz.), baked or broiled-twice a day 2 medium sized tomatoes 1 with each fish meal

EGG DIET:

(225 calories) 1 egg-3 times a day.

is that a half a pound for the entire day or is it 3 half pounds?

[LiveNLaugh]

Good question.

And I wonder why it's limited to the one type of meat that you choose? Is there a link to this particular plan somewhere?

Thanks for the help!!

There a bunch of diets in the Stillman's book that are only one item, I don't know them all without looking at it, but one was the Buttermilk diet where all you do is drink buttermilk.

I would think you could also do and "all meat" with variety, staying away from the obvious like pork. But if a person at turkey, chicken, lean beef I would think that would work too!! Depends on what works for each person!

Just my opinion. I think there are some other threads here that have the diets listed.

Thanks, Jane! I really thought I was a Stillman expert, but obviously not!!

[kbetz0419]

I am reasking the same question?
is that a half a pound for the entire day or is it 3 half pounds equaling 1 and a half pounds for the whole day?

Meat only repitition diet:

I re-read the descriptions above, it says 1/2 lb of meat, 3X a day, so that would mean 1 & 1/2 pounds of meat a day total. Correct me if I'm wrong anyone, just reading what it says above.
