Not quite the same but i went about 3 months having 4 dates and a glass of milk for dinner instead of a full meal. I had no adverse effects and on the contrary stayed healthy and felt full in the evenings. It just shows how much the food we eat is just for the pleasure of eating rather than actual nutrient value.
(i actually stopped the diet not because it wasn't healthy, but because I needed to go on a muscle gaining diet.. however I think milk and dates for one meal a day is fantastic to maintain weight and is healthy.)..
