Breads Diet
Who would have believed that one day bread would be the most significant part of a weight loss diet? A relatively new Bread diet advocates eating twelve slices of bread a day for women and even more than that for men. The crux of the matter is that by consuming high fiber bread you will feel sated and will have consumed only 1200 calories provided you do not spread butter, marmalade or any other high calorie spread on it.
Bread by itself is low in fat and with the variety of ethnic breads made up of different grains that are available nowadays one can eat delicious bread with missing the additional spread on it. Even if you cannot follow the Bread for Life diet and eat twelve slices of bread a day, with a little discipline you will find you can lose weight by trying a bread diet for five days only. Following the diet for a longer duration will be detrimental as you may not get your required calcium or iron intake.
Be sure to drink at least one and a half liters of fluid every day and two cups of milk.
You cannot have any other carbohydrates such as rice, potatoes or pasta during the five day bread diet. If you cannot eat dry bread or toast, drizzle it with some mustard or lo-cal, no fat salad dressing.
Have toast with fruit for breakfast, followed by salad and bread of a different variety every day for lunch. Dinner can vary with a portion of chicken or fish accompanied by baked or steamed vegetables and bread. You will be surprised how much you enjoy losing weight.
