I haven't run that diet by anybody.... I was going to run it by the dietician yesterday until I realized that she had her own meal plan she wanted me to use and wasn't interested in seeing what I drew up.

My personal opinion is the diet is ok for the short term, although your carb count is incredibly low with your version (particularly on day 1). The only important thing to ask though is whether that is sustainable for you? It is difficult to calculate your caloric intake without knowing your portion sizes, but my initial guess is your version would barely be hitting 1500 calories. Perhaps fitting in 4 meals and a snack would be ideal?
Also, is your goal to lose the desired weight and then slowly integrate more carbs such as brown rice and sweet potato?
