I should have specified why I'm on such a restrictive diet.
My ophthalmologist told me to follow an Anti-inflammatory diet and go on some supplements because I have dry eyes and rosacea, which is essentially a plant based diet. So I cut out animal products from 4-5 to only 1-2 servings per day. It cleared my skin, I don't suffer from dry eyes as much, toe nail fungus is growing away, and my joints haven't ached since.
Then, I learned from my ENT specialist that I have a fungal infection in one of my sinuses from allergies and frequent sinusitis. So I saw a naturalpathic doctor in hopes to avoid surgery, who advised me on natural treatments and an anti-fungal detox diet for a month, which cuts all sugar, dairy, eggs, fruit (with exception to lemons, limes, grapefruit, and blueberries), and anything that could be turned into the sugar, including pasta, and glutenous grains such as wheat, well as mushrooms and molding nuts (peanuts, walnuts, pistachios, and cashews).
I found this website very helpful,

It's manageable by focusing on what I can eat, and I'm not hungry because I can eat vegetables all day. What is sad is that despite only consuming 1200 calories per day for the last 3 days, I haven't lost weight, not even initial water weight. Perhaps I've already detoxed excess water from the Anti-inflammatory diet.
