How to lose a stone in time for Christmas and still eat a full-English as well as pasta favourites
DO you want to lose a stone in time for Christmas?
We all want to look our best this December, right? Well, if you’ve been struggling to lose weight and want to feel confident this festive season, you’ve come to the right place.
If you’re interested to know more, grab yourself The Sun this Saturday (4th), for an epic eight-page pull out.
You’ll also want to get your hands on Fabulous Magazine this Sunday (5th), for the full five day plan.
With Christmas parties and fancy dinners coming out of our ears, more and more of us are looking towards ways we can shift a few pounds.
But thanks to Slimming World, you can lose a stone just in time for the big day, without having to avoid your favourite foods – yes, you heard that correctly.
While many diets will have you eating chicken, broccoli and rice for dinner, thanks to this amazing plan, you can eat your favourite snacks, delicious meals and lavish desserts, and lose weight at the same time.
So if you’ve got a full-on calendar coming up, and you want to look amazing in your sequins on Christmas Day, you’ll need to check out Slimming World’s five-day plan to give yourself the ultimate present.
With this plan, you could drop up to 7lbs in just two weeks and if you start soon, you could lose a whole stone before December 25th.
So, just how does the plan work exactly? You’ll need to choose one breakfast, one lunch and one dinner every day and you can repeat any meals you enjoy.
The eating plan is called Food Optimising, and it’s based on the science of energy density and satiety (how filling a food is).
It provides a simple way to cut calories without counting them, and don’t worry, you won’t go hungry.
You can enjoy a range of foods, with more than 350 to choose from, including pasta, rice, potatoes, fish and poultry.
So if you aren’t willing to give up your full English or your sweet treats, this plan might just be for you.
When it comes to breakfast recipes, there’s delicious savoury muffins and baked oats included on this plan.
If you like a hearty meal at lunch, you’ll be thrilled to know that you can still tuck into a filling pasta salad or a fully loaded jacket potato.
And don’t worry, you can still eat dessert too – and you’ll be sure to impress your loved ones with the epic banoffee and chocolate fool or mini fruit pavlova recipes.
The plan is about making healthier choices, so you can look and feel your best.
Thanks to Slimming World, Beverley Hall, 60, went from over 18 stone, to just 14 stone 3 lbs.
Prior to joining Slimming World, Beverley struggled to get back to her pre-baby weight after having her son, Leon.
Not only this, but she also found out in April 2016 that she had stage 3 lung cancer.
However, thanks to Slimming World, Beverley learnt how to make her favourite Caribbean cooking less calorific.
The weight quickly dropped off, taking her from a size 20 to a 14, and now she looks and feels fabulous.
As well as this, Becks Cross, 27, went from 14 and a stone, to just 9 stone 8lb, taking her from as size 18 to a size 8.
The mum-of-two was left disgusted after looking at a photo of herself in a swimming costume whilst on a holiday in Florida.
The skincare pro took the plunge and joined Slimming World, where she learnt about nutrition and recipes.
While she was initially worried she’d be “living on lettuce and air”, she admitted to Fabulous that she “couldn’t believe how much [she] was able to eat.”
So if these stories have inspired you, and you want to learn more about how to create nutritious and filling food, you’ll need to check out this plan.
Not only will you lose that stubborn weight that you haven’t been able to shift, but you’ll also discover positive, lasting habits that will stay with you beyond December 25th and into the new year.
