yea, thats what my pt told me too, he just gave me a guideline of what to eat. i switch it up all the time though. the main thing is to eat several SMALL meals a day, keep your metabolism going, never over eat, and take in a lot of water or water-based drinks (sometimes i'll drink either water or sugar-less iced tea).
and 30 pds in 30 days is really bad for your body actually. my goal is lose the 40 pds i gained last year and my trainer told me that its going to take a while but if it stick to the working out and change the foods i eat, that it'll start come off probably within a year. nothing is a quick fix, its a LIFESTYLE.
once you get back to the size you want, you wont need to go workout 4-5 days a week anymore, just 2-3 times a week will keep you in shape and the pds off.
