The Eating Plan
The menus
in the Bt)wflex _ eating
plan are designed
for maximum
fat-loss
effectiveness
and nutritional
value. For best results,
follow them
exactly.
Every attempt
has been
made
to utilize
current
popular
brand
names
and accurate
calorie
counts,
which are listed
in the menus.
But as you probably
realize
the pro&_cts
are sometimes
changed
or discontinued.
If a listed
item is not available
in your area,
you'll
need to substitute
a similar
product.
Become
an informed
label
reader
at your
supermarket.
Ask questions
about
any products
you
don't understand.
Supermarket
managers
are usually
helpful.
If they don't have an answer
to your question,
they will get it for you.
Each day you will choose
a limited
selection
of foods
for breakfast
and hmch.
Most people
can consume
the same basic breakfast
and the same basic hmch
fbr
months
with little modification.
Ample
variety
during
your evening
meal,
however,
will make
daily eating
interesting
and enjoyable.
Additionally,
the eating
plan includes
a mid-afternoon
and late-night
snack to
keep your
energy
high and your hunger
low.
Begin
Week I on Monday
and continue
through
Sunday.
Week 2 is a repeat
of Week 1.
Calories for each food are noted in parentheses.
A shopping
list follows.
The eating plan for the next six weeks descends:
Week
1 & 2:
Men 1500 calories
per day.
Women
1200 calories
per day.
Week
3 & 4:
Men 1400 calories
per day.
Women
1100 calories
per day.
Week
5 & 6:
Men 1300 calories
per day.
Women
1000 calories
per day.
You'll always have a 300 calorie breakfast,
a 300
calorie lunch, and a 300 calorie dinner
(women),
or 500 calorie dinner
(men). With each two-week
descend, only your snack calories will change: from
400 to 300 to 200 calories per day (men), or 300 to
200 to 100 calories per day (women). For each of your
five daily meals, you'll have at least three choices.
Everything
has been
simplified
so even the most
kitchen-inept
man
or woman
can succeed.
Very
little cooking
is required.
All you have to do is read
the menus,
select your food
choices,
and follow the
directions.
It's as simple
as that.
If you find
that you wish to vary from
the outline
menu
items
try to stay with in the 60:20:20
ratio
of
carbohydrates,
proteins,
and fats.
