The 5:2 Vegetarian Diet Made Ezy

Have you tried dieting but given up because it took too much willpower? The 5:2 diet is an exciting concept that takes away much of the difficulty by requiring you to count calories on just two days a week. The remaining five days you can eat whatever you normally would (within reason!). This approach is highly effective, as the author discovered for herself. Polly wrote this book to take the sting out of calorie-counting. Her search for a variation of meals for the low-calorie days led her to discover the delights of eating the vegetarian way. And by adopting a mindful approach to food she made her low-calorie days satisfying and much more enjoyable. This book includes a full chapter on mindful eating and a comprehensive explanation of why and how this diet works as well as how to cope with any initial difficulties. There are detailed meal plans for twenty-four low-calorie days for one person, three meals per day, with the calorie content of each ingredient listed. Every meal and each day is given its calorie total and to make things even easier there is an extremely useful calorie counter to refer to at the end of the book.
