This is a quick start plan for healthy sensible eating. Try it for one week and see how you get on. Weigh yourself in the morning of day one minus your clothes before u eat or drink anything. Best time is just after your bath. Stick to this no cheating and weigh yourself on the 8th day exactly as u did on day one. I would love to hear your results good or otherwise and we can discuss it.
You can choose from the food groups to make up your meals as you fancy but you must watch the portion control. You should have three set meals a day and you can only snack on fruits and vegetables in between and drink at least 6 tall glasses of water daily. No frying please except pan fry with a low fat spray. There is a four day meal plan sample below please note the portion sizes.
**Top Tip add more vegetables and salads to your meal to bulk it up if you are used to large portions.
