If someone has a piece of whole wheat toast with butter and a cup of skim milk and a multivitamin for breakfast, a salad with meat and cheese in it for lunch, and the same for dinner, is that good?

I would say to add a piece of fruit or two with breakfast.
Also, have another piece of fruit or some unsalted nuts for snacks during the day (because you will get hungry on this diet).
I would also suggest some vegetables with dinner or lunch as well.
Make sure you have a bit of variety as you may get bored with this. Also, if you get hungry, dont reach for chocolate or anything. Grab some carrot sticks, celery sticks, a piece of fruit or some nuts.
Plus, make sure you exercise, and drink lots of water.
Good luck

Personally, I think that diet is very unbalanced and lacking in nutrition.
I think a well balanced diet is one that represents each of the food groups, and I do not believe they have been represented when for lunch and dinner you are merely eating a salad with meat and cheese...
Where is the fruit?
And hydration? Just one cup of skim milk at breakfast? Your body needs much more hydration than that. At least 8 glasses of water throughout the day.
Just curious, where did you hear of this diet?

You need fruits, too. And that isnt very many servings of grains. I think that will leave you hungry - come up with some healthy snacks inbetween meals, too (maybe like fruits or some fruit smoothies).

I'd say it is pretty good. Just try and go for like low cal spread instead of butter and like low cal cheese.

Should you add some fruits in it? Be sure to drink lots of water too. Some exercises in it will be amazing too.

It's okay, but where is your fruit and vegetable intake? you need at least five servings a day, their low in calories

Yes that would be great, but you may consider exercising to help keep extra pounds off. The older you are, the harder it gets to get rid of excess pounds ! Thanks, Brandon
