My New Diet (16 lbs and going)

I started this crazy diet based on "The 4-Hour Work Week" Tim Ferris' website just over a month ago now. I have lost 16 lbs thus far and have only 4 more to go before I switch to a different diet and build muscle. I am 6 foot tall exactly and now weigh 179 lbs, when I started this diet I weighed 195. Your probably thinking 180 is a good weight for being 6ft but I have very little muscle, my goal right now is to drop as much as I can and then pack on some muscle mass. I would love to weigh 195 and have some solid muscle and in fact that's my over goal but I had the wrong kind of weight on and need to drop this fat first.


My diet consists of the following 3 meals repeated over and over again.

BREAKFAST(1 meal)
-Egg White Omelet with one whole egg for flavor(aprox 4 total eggs)
-No cheese just about 2 slices of ordinary 99% fat free Sandwich meat chopped up inside

LUNCH, Mid day lunch, early dinner, dinner(4-5 meals small portions)

STIR FRY made early in the week and put in containers, consisting of the following,
-Lintels from Trader Joes
-Ground Turkey(99% fat free)
-Asian fresh veggies(carrots, Asian beans, broccoli, Onions, bell peppers)
-A little bit of Asian Stir Fry seasoning from Ralphs


I basically eat every time I feel a little hungry and only fill about 3/4 of a coffee mug of food.
I drink a lot of water and allow myself 2 cups of coffee a day with nonfat creamer, no sugary drinks on this diet but the occasional glass or two of Red Wine is fine.

When I workout which right now is not that often(1-2 times a week)I load up on calories after my workout by eating a coffee cup full of Potato Medley from Trader Joes (high in sodium but it's only twice a week).

I give myself one Cheat Day a week where I will eat a couple Chicken sandwiches from a fast food spot and maybe a Vanilla Latte which I was drinking like 2 of a day b4 my diet. My wallet thanks me too.

My understanding is that this diet works by keeping the caloric intake very low and from eating and repeating the same meals so often it speeds up your metabolism. If I am not mistaken the cheat day also helps(not really sure how it helps exactly but I read online that it does).

I have Tons of energy and I am not experiencing any heart burn or chest pains like I used to as well. To read more about where I got my diet from cut the text below and paste in your browser,
