1100 Calorie Diet

The 1,100 calorie diet generally is meant for women with small frames. As this diet has very few calories, care has to be taken so the nutrition level does not fall below the optimum. As this is a very low-fat diet plan for proper health and vitality, this should never be followed on a daily basis. This diet should be interspersed with days during which you take high-calorie foods as well.

Breakfast

Your breakfast should be filling and nutritious. You can have 2 cups of cereal with 8 ounces of 2 percent milk or 2 whole-wheat waffles with 2 pats of low-fat butter and a maximum of 2 tablespoons of maple syrup. If you consume the cereal, you can have 1 cup of either tea or coffee and a banana. In the other case, you can have 1 cup of any fruit. No matter what you have for breakfast, top off the meal with a glass of water.

Lunch

For this meal, choose one of these healthy options. Use 2 slices of whole-wheat bread, 2 slices of roast beef and 1 cup of potato chips. This sandwich should be made with tomato and lettuce, topped with 2 tsp. of mayonnaise. Finish this meal with no more than 12 ounces of a diet, carbonated beverage. The other option would include a large salad tossed with 2 tbsp. of dressing, 6 oz. of sliced chicken, and 1 cup of low-fat wheat crackers. Also follow this meal with water, at least 12 oz.

Dinner

Dinner, which should be consumed as early as possible, should include a small salad tossed with 2 tbsp. of dressing and at least 12 oz. of water. Along with these constants, there are two possible choices. Either you can have 2 cups of prepared pasta with 1/2 cup of tomato sauce and 2 tablespoons of grated cheese, or you can have 6 oz. of grilled, skinless chicken breast along with 1 cup of green beans, and 2 pats of low-fat butter.

Snack

For an after-lunch snack, eat a piece of fruit, such as a medium-sized peach. For an after-dinner snack, choose between 4 tsp. of muesli or granola with 1 cup of yogurt or 2 graham crackers.
