Scarsdale Diet

I love the Military Diet, which has about 10 different names.  But it is only 3 days long.  I found another diet which is very similar and is 7 days long.  It is the Scarsdale Diet, which was popular in the 1970s before the horrible Atkins diet came in and took over like a bully.

Here is the menu plan for the first day of the diet.

Breakfast in Scarsdale diet menu is the same everyday.

Breakfast

• 1/2 grapefruit – the best fruit for breakfast!
  However if you don’t have a grapefruit at hand, you can substitute it for other fruit in season.
• One slice of protein bread, toasted, no spread added.
• Coffee or tea (no sugar, cream or milk, no honey).
