THE SUMMER PLAN








LE PLAN ETE
#1: LE PLAN MINCEUR
(the slimness plan)

WHAT TO EAT AND DRINK
I'll start with the obvious BIG NO NO's

no sugars, no fats (except a teaspoon a day of olive oil), of course

and
les quatre P
(the 4 P's, as we say in France)
Pain, Pates, Patisseries, Pommes de terre.
(bread, pasta,pastries,potatoes)

We have taken care of that, so let's move on to the YES column.

The other obvious items

and the necessary proteins

any fish , really

lean white meat

omega 3 eggs

Plus a little fat (olive oil is best) multi vitamins and lots of water.

a natural sweetener to replace the forbidden sugars

and spices and herbs to liven it all up.

I'll tell you tomorrow how I prepare these ingredients, since, as we all know this by this time, to make a diet work (yes, a D.I.E.T., lets call a cat a cat, as we also say in French) we need to eat less calories that we burn, we need to make it healthy, and we need to make it tasty. 

à demain.

  2. Just joined that plan (the caveman diet) and the Manhattan athletic club...quite arduous and painful, working with a ruthless trainer.
