The 24 Hour Diet: Lose up to 4lbs in a Day

The 24 Hour Diet: Lose up to 4lbs in a Day
О книге

The UK’s leading diet and fitness expert, Joanna Hall, shows you the healthy way to shed excess pounds in a day. This fantastic plan is a refinement on the typical low GI diet. It is complimented with a 20 day follow-on plan which builds up in very small steps, day by day. Joanna’s mantra is: small steps make big changes.A totally effective one day diet for any emergency: whether it's a party, beach holiday, or simply when the excesses of Christmas have left you pounds heavier.The eating plan is very simple. Not only are you restricted from eating carbs after 5pm but you have a specially selected choice of low GI foods. Many diet books simply give you a list of foods and their GI rating. This is a flawed system as foods react in the body in different ways and over different time scales. Joanna's system uses a refinement on the traditional GI diet that helps you lose weight faster.SMALL STEPS MAKE BIG CHANGES:The 24 hour quick-fix is followed by one small change you can make each day for a 20 day period to help you change the habits of a lifetime. Every psychologist knows that a human is not designed to make sweeping changes all at once: if you try, they're unlikely to stick.Joanna's small units of change which work up in a careful sequence to the more challenging are an ingenious strategy. For example:• Day 1 will simply start with making sure you drink 6 glasses of water;• Day 2 you'll replace your sugary cereal and/or toast with either a bowl of porridge or unsweetened muesli;• Day 3 you'll be reducing your coffee intake to one cup a day;• Day 4 you'll build a half hour walk into your dayThe cumulation of these changes mean that by day 20 you'll be living a really healthy, fit, and slim way of life.

About the Publisher

All my years and experience of running weight-management programmes have taught me that we all want one thing: FAST RESULTS. Most of us acknowledge that keeping weight off in the long term is the real objective. However, when you are struggling to lose weight in the first place, the joy of being able to keep it off can seem a very long way away – so far away that it can prevent you from even making a start. My 24 Hour Diet gives you a kick-start so you can enjoy fast results. Yes, you can lose up to four pounds and three inches from your body in just 24 hours.

The 24 Hour Diet is not about creating the perfect body but it is about getting a better body. It has been proven to help individuals – both women and men – lose weight and shed inches in just 24 hours. For some, the 24 Hour Diet can be just that – an emergency when you need to look slimmer quickly, perhaps for a holiday or a special event. For others it can be a fantastic way to get off a weight-loss plateau, or perhaps just to shed a few extra pounds that have crept on over the weekend. I see it as a fabulous, effective way to kick-start your weight loss. I’ve created my 24 Hour Diet so you can do it either as a stand-alone plan or as part of a longer-term strategy for losing weight and keeping it off.

SMALL STEPS TO LONG-TERM WEIGHT MANAGEMENT

It’s difficult to make huge changes to our lifestyle, no matter how healthy they might be. Our attempts to stick to strict diets, for example, are often doomed to failure and lead to frustration, disillusionment and lowered self-esteem. We’re all stuck in our own patterns of behaviour, and the only way to change our habits is through making small, incremental changes. These little units can make a big difference. If you introduce small changes one at a time, healthier habits eventually become automatic.

Getting the body shape we desire involves a series of steps. Broken down into bite-size pieces, each of these steps is achievable. Put together, they represent a series of rules that act as building blocks for long-term weight management.

Each of these simple rules is made up of achievable and results-orientated steps and is accompanied by a support structure that works with your brain and your body for you to succeed at healthy weight loss. In short, by playing by these rules and taking the small steps involved in each one you can make a big change to your body.

HOW TO USE THIS BOOK

In Part 1 you’ll find the 24 Hour Diet. This truly works, taking inches and weight off your body in just 24 hours. And if you want a follow-up you can do the Three-day Cleanse.

Part 2 introduces 20 simple rules you can apply one at a time. Each rule represents a small lifestyle change. This approach has successfully helped people change the habits that can contribute to weight gain in the first place, transforming them into habits that help them lose weight and keep it off.

Having achieved your desired healthy body weight, the techniques in Part 3 will show you how to keep it off.

In Part 4 you’ll find delicious recipes for juices, soups, liquid replacement meals and a selection of brand-new Carb Curfew evening meal recipes.
