The alli Diet Plan: Your Essential Guide to Success with alli. Литагент HarperCollins USD

help guide you through and beyond the time you are dieting. There are menu plans to fit the different calorie and fat bands of your diet. Included here are four weeks of daily menus for the 1400-calorie diet, the one that is most commonly followed. Additionally there is one menu plan per week for each of the 1200-, 1600- and 1800-calorie diets. These plans may also be useful if you are just starting out on the diet, or are coming to the end of your diet and want to maintain weight rather than lose it.

      The menu plans can be used in several ways. When dieting, some people like to know exactly what they can eat down to the last lettuce leaf. If you are one of those people the menu plans are perfect, as they describe each meal and snack. They provide links to the recipes in Chapter 4 (the recipe name is in italics). If there is a meal you don’t fancy, you can find a substitute by looking at Chapter 4, by searching for a ready-prepared option in Chapter 6 or by putting ingredients from Chapter 9 together.

      Other people use menu plans for inspiration, gleaning ideas for meals but making up their own menus. If this is the way you like to diet, then you can easily find information to suit your calorie and fat targets by using chapters 4, 6 and 9. It is worth writing down your own menu plan so you can check that you keep within your fat and calorie targets.

      A Reminder of the Fat and Calorie Targets

      The table that follows shows you the maximum number of calories and grams of fat you can eat. The menu plans are worked out on a daily basis, so use the information in the first two columns. If you are making up your own meal plans, you will need to ensure that you keep to the fat targets for each meal or snack.

      Menu Plan Instructions

      The table below suggests how you may break your daily fat and calorie allowance down.

      • Each day you should have 300ml skimmed milk (or non dairy equivalent) for cereals, drinks and in cooking. (This helps ensure you are having adequate calcium.) Measure it out at the start of the day, so you know how much you are using.

      • Drink at least 1.5 litres (6 x250ml glasses) of water a day in addition to other drinks. You may have low calorie squashes and unsweetened herb or fruit teas in addition to tea and coffee, but do not forget to count in sugar or milk you are adding.

      • Drinks such as juices, smoothies and alcoholic drinks all add calories so unless stated are not included in the menu plans.

      • Make sure you measure everything out. The menu plans give weights and, where appropriate, household measures.

      • Recipes from the book are shown in italic text. If you don’t like the recipe, simply find another with similar fat and calories by looking at the charts at the end of Chapter 4, by choosing a ready made option from one of the supermarkets or by using Chapter 9 to construct your own meal.
