HOW IT WORKS
Simply follow the menu. Feel free to repeat any meals that you enjoy.
1 Slimming World’s eating plan, Food Optimising, is based on the science of energy density (the calories per gram in food), of satiety (how filling a food is) and how easy a food is to overeat. It’s a simple way to cut calories without counting them and lose weight without going hungry.
2 Free Food is at the heart of the Slimming World plan. These are the foods that you can enjoy without weighing, measuring or counting. There are over 350 Free Foods to choose from.
3 To ensure you’re getting a balanced, nutritious diet, enjoy measured amounts of foods that provide calcium, like milk and cheese, as well as foods providing fibre and other essential minerals and nutrients.
4 In addition, choose from two of the following each day: 350ml skimmed milk, 250ml semiskimmed milk, 400ml plain unsweetened soya/almond milk with added calcium, 30g full-fat hard cheese or 40g reduced-fat hard cheese. Some days these have been included in the meal choices. Choose one on these days.
5 Don’t forget to treat yourself! Enjoy up to two options from the snack list (see page 103) every day.
