Diet Meal Plans Q & A

Rico Kidd asked:


The 6 Week Body Makeover meal plan is about customization. The more you customize your meal plan, the less bored you will be with your diet. The less bored you are with your diet, the more likely you will stick to the meal plan and lose weight. This article is directed towards people who have taken the body blue print questionnaire and have body type C.

Body Type C people are known to have more lean muscle mass than the rest of the body types. This is good as lean muscle mass increases your metabolism. When your metabolism has increased, it will burn calories (energy) at a faster rate, which will allow you to lose weight faster. The majority of “C” bodies are allowed to eat simple and complex carbohydrates (in moderation) and fruit. They should stick to chicken and fish for protein and stay away from red meats as red meat will make them “bulk up”. Here is a sample menu using the Infinite Menu Planner for a body type c daily meal.

Breakfast

4 oz. protein A
1 cup carb A
1/2 cup fruit A

Mid Morning Snack

4 oz. protein A
1/2 cup of carb A

Lunch

4 oz. protein A
1 cup carb A
1-2 cups veggie A

Mid Afternoon Snack

4 oz. protein A
1/2 cup carb A

Dinner

4 oz. protein A
1 cup carb A
1-2 cups veggie A

PM Snack

1/2 cup fruit A

If you use the infinite menu planner, you will have an unlimited amount of food choices. Losing weight doesn’t have to be about suffering and being on a boring meal plan. Learn to eat correctly and eat for a lifetime.

The quickest way to burn fat is to follow a fad diet program that promises rapid weight loss results in the shortest time period possible. The calorie shifting diet is one such example of a diet that can help you reach your goal. If followed properly, this diet claims that you will lose weight at the rate of about 9 pounds every 11 days, or about 18 to 20 pounds in one month.

Most rapid weight loss diets are unsustainable for the long-term and simply unsafe to follow for more than two weeks at a time. The calorie-shifting diet falls into the same category but its diet plan is unique in that it requires you to take a mandatory 3-day break from the diet after the 11th day. So, in a 14-day period, you are only following the diet for 11 days. After the 3-day break, you can then safely jump right back onto the diet again, for another 11 days.

The way the calorie shifting diet works is simple:

• You do not need to count calories.

• You can eat as much food as you like at every meal until you are satisfied but not full.

• You must eat 4 full meals a day.

• What you eat at each meal is based on an 11-day diet plan in which the types of calories you consume (proteins, carbohydrates, fats, fiber, starch, etc.) are shifted from meal to meal. In other words, in one meal you might only eat food from one or two food groups, and another combination of food groups during the next meal.

The science behind how the calorie shifting diet works is that by only introducing certain combinations of calories into your body at different times of the day each day, you are triggering a metabolic response in your body that induces burning fat.

In this article we are going to quickly look at some meal replacement info that many dieters need to know. The simple truth is that meal replacement diets are NOT created equal, with many of the popular choices actually TASTING great….but being very fattening to boot! When it comes to bars and shakes, the most common mistake I see being made is that folks simply think because it’s shaped or packaged similarly to what they expect in a low calorie food substitution, it’s actually a diet food on that basis alone..:-) Let’s take a closer look below.

Aren’t all Meal Replacement Bars and Shakes Made for Dieting?

Absolutely not! Did you know that some of the most popular bars on the market are over 420 calories? It’s true….and while they may be full of protein and amino acids, unless you are planning on doing some power lifting competitions, that is NOT going to help you drop any dress sizes..:-) The simple truth is that many of these products are actually designed to PUT on weight, as they are very high in caloric content, sugar and other ingredients that are conducive for adding body mass.

Don’t All Meal Replacement Diets Require a Prescription?

Again, the answer is NO! This is a myth that has actually been spread by a few of the expensive diet programs in conjunction with some popular programs that encourage physician referrals. While it may be good for their business…it WON’T be good for YOUR pocketbook or wallet! The simple truth is that the Medifast diet has been PROVEN to work for over one MILLION people just like us, and can be purchased online for about 10 dollars a day. (no prescription required!) 

Remember – the number 1 thing you NEED to look for in a meal replacement diet is the caloric content – everything else is important as well….but NOTHING says sensational weight loss quite as well as  tasty shakes (and other treats) that are  low in calories to boot!

Master Cleanse Diet Recipe is very simple and there are only a few ingredients to prepare. You have to follow the ingredients listed and no substitutions of any of the ingredients. Do it a continuous of 10 days and feel the difference.

Ingredients for 1 serving:

- 10 Ounces Pure Filtered Water (Warm)

- 2 Tablespoon of Grade B Organic Maple Syrup

- 1/10 Organic Cayenne Pepper (Red)

- 2 Tablespoon of Organic Lemons


Optional Ingredients:

- Laxative Tea

- Decaffeinated Natural Herbal Tea

- Pure Hoodia Gordonii Extract

When you are on Master Cleanse, you should be drinking plenty of water. For example, if you weight 130 pounds, you should drink at least 130 ounces of water. I am also encouraging people who got the intention of trying this diet to use organic ingredients because the purpose of going on this diet for 10 days is to remove any poisonous toxins and wastes from your body in order to achieve an optimum result. It is best to stay away from ingredients that has been sprayed with pesticides.

Some people actually replaced Fresh Lemons with Concentrated Lemons and that is not right because Concentrated Lemons are normally filled with sugars and preservatives which are not advisable to use it during the cleanse.

Optional Ingredients like Laxative Tea can be used in addition to Master Cleanse Diet, drinking Laxative Tea helps to increase elimination and it helps to address the two main difficulties such as hunger pangs and food cravings. As for Decaffeinated Natural Herbal Tea,it will help you when you are getting too bored with just drinking Lemonade.

Many times, hunger is often the main reason that people gave up during this 10 days diet and it is impossible to avoid getting hungry but with the optional ingredient, Hoodia Gordonii Extract, it can help to curb your appetite and overcome the hunger.

Finishing Master Cleanse is definitely not easy but with the right instructions, methods and determination to follow. I believed it is achievable. If you would like to know more about this diet, i would suggest you to read the guide : Master Cleanse Secrets.
