Preparation:                    
Here's a suggestion for another weeks worth of dieting. again, you don't have to follow it to the letter, just use your common sense and stay off the stodge.

There is nothing revolutionary about this diet, it just relies on reasonable portion sizes and sensible use of low-calorie alternatives wherever possible. Replace milk, butter, drinks, mayonaise, sugar and cereals with low fat, low salt, low sugar options and you'll lose weight and get healthier.

Breakfast is optional but don't skip it if you think it'll lead you to graze or pop out for coffee and Danish at 11 AM. Don't overdo the cereal and stay clear of high sugar breakfast cereals.

Lunch is best made at home and taken with you to work, it's cheaper, healthier and you've got a far better chance of staying slim if you keep out of the canteen / deli / restaurant / pub at lunchtime.

Our view is that the best diet is one which is sustainable.

Keep away from ready meals and processed foods if you can, they are generally much higher calorifically than natural and home-made meals and can contain a lot of salt that you'll be healthier without.

Use low-calorie spreads and dressings
rather than butter and you'll be surprised how many calories you'll save.
