sorry for the late response. I'll try and answer the best I can. Haven't been on a forum before.
for the first. My variation. Before I go further I have to stress that I am under alot of pressure to look a certain way. I usually eat one meal a day, usually late evening, or early if i'm terribly hungry. I go by weight, not calories. 2.5 lbs is perfect for me.
I'm not particular about the beef. I'll eat it out of the package from wherever. Never been sick in the five years ever. Lean muscle meat. Just cows honestly, no organs and no fat. I trim all that off. I noticed alot advocate fat. It may work for them, for me, even the slightest increase causes a "thickening". No dairy of any form, no veggies, no fruit, no alcohol.
But i smoke and guzzle down diet coke, i know my bad.
Oh, and three sticks of sugar free gum.
I have stressed it is an extreme form which I take, "please don't stone me"
But in all honestly, I am in top shape (I think,) My husband and I do traditional archery daily and my job requires high energy ( you're constantly facing the public) The diet gives me what I need.
To the poster who asked about the four hours of sleep. Yes, you can function. But personally i need my sleep, i find it catches up after a couple of nights.
Did I mention coffee? ... I would trade a kidney for the last cup on earth, if it came down to that of course.
My pics are open on my FB page, just to honestly show i don't look like Death freeze dried
