Cycle 1 Food List

Sugar-free flavored yogurt 6 oz.
Kefir 1 cup
Live-active cottage cheese 1/2 cup

Fruits

 Vegetables

All leafy greens
Onions
Cabbage
Cauliflower
Broccoli
Brussels sprouts
Carrots
Artichoke hearts
Asparagus

Eggplant
Garlic
Green beans
Leeks
Mushrooms
Okra
Parsley
Scallions
Tomatoes (yes, it's really a fruit)
Watercress
Broccoli raab
Bamboo shoots

Pea pods

Most vegetables are really okay. This list is obviously not comprehensive. I think the only notable exclusion is corn, which a a grain but considered a vegetable by many veggie-hating children and adults, if only to get Mom off their backs. There are no grains included in cycle 1.

Other

Fat-free cheese 
Fat-free sour cream
Low-carb marinara sauce (check label for sugar content)
