I've been doing it for two and a half days, but I'll add some kind of bean to my lunch for protein, and maybe an orange for dessert after dinner. Thanks for the suggestions!
Vegetarian / vegan? Or any particular reason you're focusing on plant matter?
Yeah, I'm trying to cleanse my body of its addiction to carbs and animals. When I'm done with this nonsense, I'm hoping to go back to a normal diet. Not vegan or vegetarian, per se, but more fruitarian than anything else. I'm way too addicted to things like red meat and snacks of the potato chip variety, and need a serious cleanse, even if it's not 100% the best idea.
I disagree with just about everything here.
First off, red meat isn't unhealthy. It's been demonized. Cholesterol and saturated fat aren't bad. Some nutrients actually require fat to absorb the nutrients. Second, carbs are too. The body's preferred fuel source, and then you're thinking of going to fruit, which is full of carbohydrate? Potato chips are mostly fat (by calories). You're not addicted to potato chips, you're addicted to very palatable foods. Read

And the body is always cleansing. The better way to do it is to maximize nutrient repletion (best done through animal products), increase intake of healthier carb and fat choices (dairy, eggs, meats, potatoes, white rice) for energy and get rid of anything heavily processed. Combine with proper sleep, lowering stress and some daily sun exposure. This would greatly improve the metabolism, thus increasing the body's efficiency of excreting waste material ("toxins"
