There are a lot of 1200 diet plans on the net, here is one: http://www.md-health.com/1200-calorie-meal-plan.html
What are your questions? I believe we have a nutritionist here at AF.
Good site, but if you notice my previous post, I'm only allowed x number of servings per protein, fruit, veggie etc. I can't have more than two servings of fruit. As per the dietitian at the weight loss clinic, 1/2 of a banana is equal to one serving of fruit. So looking at the website's suggestion for day 1 calls for a serving of fruit juice, an orange, a banana, and a piece of fruit. That already puts me at five servings of fruit - three over what I'm allowed. Also, day one there are no proteins listed. I am required to eat 7 servings (7 ounces, divided) of protein per day.
This is why this is so hard. It's easy to find 1200 calories in stuff. Not so easy to follow the serving requirements by the doctor and the clinic.
