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. For this reason I frequently change or rotate my dieting menus. This practice helps to avoid possible deficiencies in essential nutrients.
I have also included a cheat day in one of the diet examples. 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!
