Читать книгу The alli Diet Plan: Your Essential Guide to Success with alli - Литагент HarperCollins USD, F. M. L. Thompson - Страница 34

This diet follows recommended nutrition principles for a healthier diet. That is, it encourages you to eat a balanced diet, eating foods from all the main food groups, control your calories through portion size and reduce fat intake, and also be more active.

This may not sound like rocket science. It isn’t. The diet is designed so that:

1. you achieve effective, gradual weight loss

2. you lose weight by eating ‘normal’, not ‘diet’ foods

3. you learn to take control of your eating by understanding more about foods and nutrition.

Alongside the diet you are encouraged to become more active and also to spend some time looking at the triggers that may make you eat when you are not hungry. Whole books have been written on the motivational side of eating and slimming, and it is not within the scope of this book to provide more than a thumbnail sketch with some practical hints and pointers to help you.

To start off with, you need to look at what a healthy, balanced diet really is so you can begin to make better choices from now on.
