HOW IT WORKS
1 Choose one breakfast, one lunch and one dinner every day and feel free to repeat any meals you particularly enjoy.
2 Because Slimming World’s eating plan is based on the science of energy density and satiety (how filling a food is) it helps you to cut calories without counting a single one, so you can lose weight without going hungry.
3 Free Food is at the heart of the Slimming World plan. These are foods you can enjoy without weighing, measuring or counting. There are more than 350 Free Foods to choose from, including fruit, veg, pasta, rice, potatoes, pulses, lean meat (and some plant-based proteins e.g. Quorn), fat-free dairy, fish and poultry. Basing your meals around Free Food (printed in bold) and reaching for them first if you feel hungry between meals – especially fruit and veg which are lowest in energy density – will naturally limit your calorie intake and allow you to lose weight without feeling hungry.
4 To make meals extra tasty, stock your store cupboard with herbs, low-calorie cooking spray, tomato puree, seasoning, soy sauce, spices and stock cubes, most of which can be used freely to flavour meals.
5 Enjoy measured amounts of foods that provide calcium, like milk and cheese, every day to support a balanced, nutritious diet – have two of the following each day: 350ml skimmed milk, 250ml semi-skimmed milk, 400ml plain unsweetened soya/almond milk with added calcium, 30g full-fat hard cheese or 40g reduced-fat hard cheese**.
6 Foods providing fibre and other essential minerals and nutrients are also included in the plan, so you can enjoy one portion of the following each day: 2 slices of wholemeal bread (from a small 400g loaf), a 60g wholemeal roll/pitta, 40g plain porridge oats, 2 wholewheat biscuits, 20 whole/plain almonds or 2 level tbsp chia seeds**.
7 Staying hydrated is important for your overall health. Aim to have between six and eight drinks a day – water, sugar-free drinks, tea and coffee all count.
8 The Slimming World plan is super flexible so you can tailor it to suit your taste, lifestyle, budget and dietary needs. If you have specific requirements, simply let Slimming World know when you join.
