Try to avoid eating meat products(chicken, beef, fish) 100%totally. Try to eat more vegetables and fruits. They are very healthy. I hope this helps. God bless you!

Fresh fruits and vegetables\nLean meats, fish, and poultry\nFor vegetarians, tofu and dried beans and legumes\nWater instead of soda, etc.\nDon't eat the processed and snack foods.\n\nYou should get plenty of healthy foods that way; you don't need a health food store.

Well obviously, that's what a healthy diet consists of.  They can also suggest recipes that are appealing to you and exactly which fuits, veggies, meats, fishes, etc are the best for your body type and your weight/health goals.  There's more to it than just eating the right foods.  Portions are very important as well.  If you can't afford a dietician, then just eating the good foods is a great way to start.

This is a good way for anyone trying to get healthy. Look close at the food you eat, and I do not mean eating less. Read the ingredients on EVERYTHING you eat, and yes I do mean EVERYTHING. Avoid all hydrogenated oils, modified anything, fructose, high fructose corn syrup, and non-organic soy products; these things are all genetically altered and are seriously not healthy for you at all, even in moderation. Also, cut out pork, shellfish, any fish without fins and scales really, because those animals are not good for you at all. Try to eat along these guidelines. The more healthy foods may set you back a bit more than regular food in some areas (like organic stuff), but you can find healthy stuff in a ton of places, so just keep your eye out for it. And as far as exercise goes, try running, sit-ups, and push ups. The old fashioned way is the best way, trust me. I have lost 53 pounds in a year and a half following those food guidelines and exercise routine. (I lost 30 in the first three months) Hope this advice helps! Good luck!

I hope you mean just the menu for free.  I'd search the internet.  The one I recommend is the Mediterranean diet because it is the most well balanced.  Also it it's the best for your heart and figure.

Vegetarian, lots of fat free milk, and water. Make sure you take pre-natal vitamins. You should eat healthy, you don't need to eat extra food, just enough that you are satisfied.

No don't go there how can it be healthy and maintainable if it's out of a box. I have a plan that will definately work for you and can easily fit into anyones lifestyle. \n\nIf you want to do this it is for life so you need to totally change your way of eating and exercising. This is not a diet rather than a healthy eating plan for life. So no more talking diet cause it means time limit. \n\nHere are the golden rules: \nInitially cut down to 1200 calories. \nExercise 6 times per week for 1 hours a day. Do three weight sessions and three cardio sessions. \nDon't eat carbs after 4pm, never eat carbs within 2 hours of exercise or within 1 hour of exercise. \nDrink 3 litres of water per day. You can have a green tea at the end of the day. \nLimit your fruit in take to 2 pieces per day. \nNever eat dinner after 6pm.\nAdopt of low GI eating plan this is sustainable for life!\nMake low fat dairy choices \n\nFollow this menu plan as a suggestion: \nBreakfast 7am - 1 cup hot water w lemon\n20 minutes later have a bowel of oats w water (no honey) OR\nfruit salad w low GI soy yogurt\nSnack 10am - pear or apple (both low GI)\nLunch 12.30pm - muligrain sandwich w 50g tuna & salad (no butter)\nSnack 3pm - low GI yogurt OR skim berry smoothie (no honey or banana) plenty of ice, 1/2 cup skim milk & 1/4 cup yogurt\nDinner 5.30pm - 120g grilled lean meat/fish/prawns/tofu patties (not fried) w spinach salad & mixed vegies (no whites, carbs) OR 3 egg white/soy omlette with ham, cheese and tomato\nSnack - 1 scoop of low cal low fat ice cream (if hungry)\n\nExercise is must be intense. Refer to www.bodybuilding.com for your weights routine. You can do a circuit class but this counts as one weights session. Never do weights two consecutive days have a cardio day in between. \n\nCardio needs to include running, boxing and spin. If your classes are less than 1 hour top it up with cardio before and after classes. You get the most benefits from exercise when your body is totally fatigued and this is when you see changes. \n\nTo maintain you can increase calories to 1500 and reduce exercise sessions to 3-4 times per week. If weight creeps up again due to holiday period etc.. go back to 1200 cal and 6 sessions again. \n\nGood luck it worked for me it can work for anyone.

Cut up some fresh veggies and keep them in a zip lock baggie in the fridge. Include celery, carrots, bell pepper strips, broccoli, mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, jicama. You can even use some fat free dip if you don't overdo it.\n\nFruit can be good if you don't eat too much of it. Berries (especially blueberries) are very good for you. Grapes, apples, oranges, pears, peaches, etc. are good, but you have to watch the sugar content, especially if you are diabetic.\n\nRice cakes are low in calories. \n\nA smoothie made from yoghurt, orange juice, berries and a little honey can give you an energy boost. Put them all into a blender with some crushed ice and blend just until it's frothy. You can add some oats to make it more nutritious.

Not horrible but not a balanced diet.  Vegitarians do not eat only fruit and veggies.  They suppliment their diets with things like nuts and they eat tofu, etc.  You need some protein in your diet and you won't get enough (if any) with only fruit and vegetables.
