lunch and dinner.
Create your nutritional diet plan by using
microwave low fat frozen dinners and add your favorite fruit or
vegetable to each meal.
Always add 1 to 2 servings of
vegetables to your frozen dinner but avoid potatoes. The best way to
prepare vegetable and retain all the nutritional value is to steam them

steamer and microwave for several minutes. After steaming, add spices.

flavoring with 5 calories) and seasoning salt. You can also marinate
vegetables in a small sandwich bag with low calorie marinade or lemon
juice.

demands a more hearty selection of food. Have your meal first
then prepare the family dinner separately. Add 30 minutes of brisk walking, 3 to 6 days a week and watch the pounds come off. Give the diet plan a trial period of 2 to 3 weeks. Keep in mind that the suggested meal plan is just one way to create a diet and not everybody will like or agree with our suggestions.
