Do you struggle to stick to diet plans that deprive you of your favorite things? Well, nutritionist Angela Dowden’s plan might be exactly what you’re looking for! With a variety of options for both main meals and snacks that will allow you to have a little bit of what you fancy, you can reach your slimming goals without feeling like you’re missing out. Sound too good to be true? Give it a go!
HOW DOES IT WORK?
-
Yes, you’re having sweet treats occasionally, but you’re still cutting down on overall calories during the diet, so you’ll lose weight.
-
You’re more likely to stick to the diet because you won’t feel deprived.
-
Many of the sweet foods we’ve included also contain vitamins, fiber, and minerals, so you’re getting more out of them than just empty calories. Just make sure you limit yourself to one a day
THE RULES
1 Pick one breakfast, lunch, and dinner and choose one selection from the sweets and snacks list, too.
2 Drink 300ml of skimmed milk every day, either on its own or in other drinks.
3 Walk 10,000 steps a day. This usually means moving around for at least an hour and a half a day (you don’t have to do it in one go). Use a tracker like FitBit to count steps accurately. Activity helps your body process the sugar in your bloodstream better.

Choose one a day
