You will be following a reduced-calorie nutrition program
which is divided into three two-week segments. The
program is a proven method for achieving maximum fat loss
over a six-week period. It consists of a carbohydrate-rich,
descending-calorie eating plan and a superhydration routine.
Follow a Carbohydrate-Rich,
Descending-Calorie Eating Plan:
Approximately 60 percent of your daily calories should be
from carbohydrates. The other 40 percent will be equally
divided between proteins and fats. The 60:20:20 ratio of
carbohydrates, proteins, and fats is ideal for maximum fat loss.
Keep Menus Simple and Food Substitutions
to a Minimum:
Research has established that successful dieters prefer the
same foods each day for breakfast and lunch. They like
variety, however, for dinner. Detailed menus and food choices
are included later in this manual.
If you must vary from the menu items, try to stay within the
60:20:20 ratio of carbohydrates, proteins and fats.
