We all want to look and feel our best in summer, and what if we told you that you can kickstart your body goals in just two weeks? It's all down to planning and prepping your own meals - but we're talking speedy meals that offer maximum nutrition to nurture your body with all the right ingredients needed for optimal health.
We know that figuring out what to put on your plate is half the battle when it comes to trimming away body fat. If you don't know your macronutrients from your micronutrients, you'll love our diet, as we've put together a menu that's simple yet effective. Our 14-day plan is based around protein-rich dishes which are super-satiating so that you're less likely to be hungry in between meals. We've also included lots of lovely healthy fats which help to stave off food cravings. We don't believe in banning food groups but instead we've shifted the focus around sensible portion sizes, so you'll also find small amounts of carbohydrates factored into meals.
We've listed seven days of meals, and the aim is to follow this diet for two weeks in conjunction with our PT-designed workout plan. By the end, you'll feel lighter and leaner. You may experience a surge in energy levels and enhanced focus, too. Keeping a food diary throughout the 14-day period where you rate your satiety levels from one to five, plus any side effects you might encounter (both good and bad), is a handy idea to help you keep track of how the food plan is working for you. Below we've outlined our recommended meals and snacks, but if you have any adverse health conditions, you should seek advice from a registered healthcare professional before starting the plan.
Day 1
BREAKFAST
Eggs on toast with spinach
Two hard boiled eggs served with 80g steamed spinach and one slice of rye toas
LUNCH
Spicy tuna baby gem hearts
