Examples of 2000 Calorie Diets *   Listed below are three examples of 2000 calorie dieting menus. They all contain 4 meals; breakfast, lunch and dinner, along with an afternoon snack.     I always try to make sure my diet is well balanced by including a large number of different types of foods. However, a low-calorie diet usually means less overall food items per day, and therefore less chance of a good food variety. For this reason I frequently rotate or change my dieting menus. This practice helps me to obtain a wide range of nutrition over several days and from different foods high in their specific nutrients, such as selecting foods high in Vitamin C for one day, then a food rich in selenium on another day, etc.   I have also included a cheat day in one of the diet samples. This allows me to eat some forbidden foods without consuming too many calories. I try not to cheat often, maybe once every ten-twelve days. When I do have a cheat day I compensate for the extra calories by drinking lots of water and more fruit during the day.   The following diets are for demonstration purposes only! Please read our Terms!     Example of 2000 Calorie Dieting Menu for One Day.   Breakfast: Omelette (with 3 egg whites, 1 yolk, sliced onions, chopped zucchini &garlic) - 210 calories 2 slices granary toast with Jam (conserve) - 250 cals Natural Fat-free Yogurt small pot - 60 calories Small piece of fruit - 50 cals Method for Omelette: In a large non-stick pan, gently heat the onion and zucchini.

The problem is dieting actually slows the metabolism as the body needs to burn up muscles to make up for the very low calorie intakes.   As Tom Venuto states in his brilliant, New Book, the solution is to Burn the Fat Off, rather than attempting to starve it!   Read more about Burning the Fat & Feeding the Muscle - Click Here!   2000 Calories Sample Diet.   Breakfast: Banana sandwich on granary bread with 2tbsp fruity brown sauce - 350 calories Bacon & eggs (2 rashers bacon, one scrambled egg) - 310 cals grilled tomatoes - 45 cals Piece of fruit or fruit juice 80 cals Tea or coffee (no sugar) Lunch: Pasta & prawn salad - 300 TOTAL calories for this dish!
