Note: This are just sample menus. There are no restrictions on the amount of lean meats, skim milk cheeses, eggs and cottage cheese on the QWL diet. The only restriction is on the low-calorie sugar-free gelatine 1-2 average portions per day, with nothing added.

The emphasis on The Stillman Quick Weight Loss Diet is predominantly protein, with no carbohydrates, and no added fat, choosing lean meats, and no oils used in preparation thereof. The cheeses allowed are of the skim milk variety. He also advocates exercise as a means to quicken weight loss, and sufficient sleep for the body to rest.

The QWL diet does not offer any deterring from the ALLOWED FOODS list. Any deviation from this list is seen as a definite No-no, and to be avoided at all costs. He says that weight loss can be stalled by such deviations.
