Correction: I'm following a modified version of the Rite Weight Plan. The original is on the edge of a Very Low Calorie - averaging less than 950 calories per day. Not a good idea for me to cut back so low at this point in time, so I've made a few alterations.
The plan goes like this, with my additions in red:
Breakfast
1 Fruit or 1 Grain
1 Fruit
1 Protein
Non-caloric beverage
Morning Snack
1 Protein
1 Fruit or Vegetable
Lunch
1 Protein
1 Fruit
1 Vegetable
2 cups lettuce
1 Extra
Non-caloric beverage
Afternoon Snack
1 Protein
1 Fruit or Vegetable
Dinner
1 Protein
1 Fruit
1 Vegetable
1 Vegetable
2 cups lettuce
1 Extra
Non-caloric beverage
Evening Snack
1 Protein
Extras are condiments, coffee creamer, etc.
My additions add on another 200 calories or so per day.
The plan also encourages 30 minutes of exercise per day.

Day 32
Forgot to weigh in this morning.
Food:
Poptarts: 400 kcal / 4 g protein
Beef Jerky: 160 kcal / 24 g protein
Soda: 200 kcal / 0 g protein
Ramen: 400 kcal / 3 g protein
Chili & Cornbread: 800 kcal / 28 g protein
TOTAL: 1960 kcal / 59 g protein
Currently dealing with cravings in a bad way, which has inspired me to stop eating so much processed food. So once I eat what's left in my pantry/refrigerator, that's it. No more processed foods. I need to learn how to cook real vegetables anyway. I also need to learn how to cook for one....because I am not that good at it. I've been looking for either a casserole, one-dish, or cooking for one cookbook, but I haven't found one I like yet.

Day 25
1 lb loss!
I'm headed to Atlanta GA for the weekend, starting at 4:30 AM tomorrow morning. I plan on monitoring what I eat, but not freaking out if I want to indulge in something wonderfully unhealthy. I won't be back until Sunday evening, so the next post will be then.
Food:
Nilla Wafers: 280 kcal / 2 g protein
Meat sandwich: 150 kcal / 8 g protein
Crisps - Bruschetta flavoured! : 450 kcal /3 g protein (This odd flavour of crisps reminded me of my trips to the UK. Not that I had Bruschetta Crisps there. But I did have [and love!] prawn crisps. And Aero bars. Neither of which I've been able to find back in the US.)

Day 19
When I stepped on the scale this morning, it said 270.0.
I blinked, rubbed my eyes, and looked again.
Yep, still 270.0.
So, like always, I stepped off, let it reset itself, and weighed myself again.
273.0. That made more sense, but I weighed myself one more time just to be sure.
273.0.
I'll take that.

Day 10
I lost 1.2 lbs in a day.
This is both good and bad. Good because I lost weight! and bad because it's most likely due to my being sick. Nothing tastes good and I don't want to eat anything (except for cough drops). But hey, it's still weight loss, and it puts me 1.2 lbs closer to my goal of 199 lbs. I also found a weight loss tracker, which will stay at the top of my blog.
I'll also start keeping track of what I'm eating here, since I'm back on the computer.
The more research I do, the more it seems that I need to increase my protein intake. Which means I'm going to start monitoring and listing that as well.
Food:
Leftovers scramble: 273 kcal / ??? g protein
Cashews: 170 kcal / 5 g protein
Cottage Cheese: 180 kcal / 21 g protein (I've never had this before, and I like it a lot)
Oatmeal pancakes with banana syrup: 553 kcal / 13.5 g protein
Milk: 150 kcal / 8 g protein
TOTAL: 1326 kcal /46.5 g (+???g) protein
