3 Day Diet

[nat45]

I got this diet from a friend who says it really works. I can't be bothered to do it because I hate eating from diet plans, but I didn't know if anyone here would be interested.

3 Day Diet Plan Basic Guidelines
1. Drink at least eight 8 oz. glasses of water every day.
2. Do not skip any meals or foods.
3. Do not add any types of fats (butter, margarine, oil, etc.) when preparing the foods. You can use herbs, salt, pepper, lemon, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, mustard, and ketchup to flavor your foods.
4. Only use the 3 day diet for THREE DAYSmore than that and youll begin to mess up your metabolism because of the reduced calories.
5. To increase the effectiveness of this or any diet program consider following a good exercise program.

After the 3 day diet
Do eat normally including 5 a day fruits and vegetables in your normal diet. A glass of fruit juice or vegetable juice does count a one portion or fruit. Continue drinking lots of water as it clears out the system and help to promote a healthier looking complexion. Recommended amount of calories per day are:
Men 2500 calories per day
Women 2000 calories per day

Do not during those break day excessively eat junk food because you will put on back the weight.

Might give that a go. Do you know if it is ok to substitute some of the foods you don't like - I would do things with similar calorie content?

I hate weighing stuff. which is probably why I am a good stone overweight

Joining the gym after xmas. I think its more the excersise not the food you eat

[maybride]

water is the main thing. Often we eat bacause our brain knows we need something, it wants water not food. Try it why u are hungry

I am going to take some of the advise here (such as the water idea) and try to include some of the menu ideas, although if i am too tough on myself I will fail. I have to pretend that it is a good idea (of mine) in order to sucseed. I have about 2 stone to lose!!!
