Simple Diet Plan

Over time you can add variety to your simple diet, even amending it to be a simple low carb diet , but to start off with, the simpler the better.

You may choose to start your change of lifestyle with a detox diet. Simple, for sure, but it can be a big shock to your currently spoiled and overfed body.

Detailed, accurate planning is essential for your success.

A simple diet plan that you read in a health magazine will probably give you instructions for 7 different breakfasts, lunches and dinners and 14 snacks per week.

Unless you are fixated on your kitchen and cooking is your all consuming passion, such a diet plan is setting you up for failure.

And your beloved family pet is going to get massively fat on the leftovers. Of course if the magazine recommends a detox diet, simple!

You eat or drink very little of not much until the toxins are expelled from your rather shocked body. Detox diets work, but they are a short turn fix only, allowing your body to rapidly rid itself of toxins. You have to keep a careful eye on yourself if you go for detox. Make sure you don't stay on a detox diet for very long. Don't allow yourself to get faint or exhausted.

By all means, go for a detox if you want to, but your body will balance itself out all by itself if you give it enough time. So try this instead.

Plan to eat the same breakfast 5 days a week, with a variation to routine at least one day of the weekend.

Your breakfast of choice should revolve around unsaturated fats, complex carbs and protein. Eggs, wholegrain breads, fruit, yoghurt and high quality breakfast cereals are all good breakfast choices.

You should choose something you like or something you can learn to like, because forcing yourself to eat something just because it is good for you is not going to make you happy or successful with your diet.

These should be fruit, raw nuts, low fat yoghurt and protein bars or shakes made on skim milk or water.

Lunch should be salads with lean meat or fish and wholegrain bread. Lunch is when you can go for your potatoes, rice or pasta as well. You can use up the energy through the afternoon. So rather than hitting the 3pm slump, you will continue to function well your whole day long.

You can alternate a range of lean meats and fish with steamed vegetables for dinner. Limit pototoes, rice, breads and pasta at night for a simple moderate/low carb diet option.

Desert is an extinct animal, but a bowl of low fat yoghurt with fruit about an hour after your dinner will stave off food cravings at night when they tend to do the most harm.

A protein bar or shake is a reasonable alternative to the fruit desert if you've not done the shopping or you feel like a change.

The incredibly popular Fat Loss 4 Idiots diet program makes the claim that you can lose 9 pounds in 11 days. Read my candid review of this "idiot proof diet" to learn what the truth of the matter really is.
