Nourish your body with this delicious eating plan from Slimming World. Enjoy inspiring, delicious, comforting food and get your weight loss off to the best possible start.

How it works...

Choose one breakfast, one lunch and one dinner every day. Feel free to repeat any meals you enjoy!

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.

Free Food is at the heart of the Slimming World plan. These are the foods you can enjoy without weighing, measuring or counting. There are more than 350 Free Foods to choose from, many of which we have incorporated into this plan.

■ On top of this to ensure you’re getting a balanced and nutritious diet, you can enjoy measured amounts of foods that provide calcium, like milk and cheese, as well as foods providing fibre and other essential minerals and nutrients. We’ve incorporated lots of fibre into this plan for you.

In addition, choose from 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.

Some days these have been included within your meal choices. Choose from one on these days.

Don’t forget to treat yourself! Enjoy up to two options from the snack list provided every day on page 43.

Breakfasts

EGGY TOAST

Use a cookie cutter to punch a hole into 2 slices of wholemeal bread (from a small 400g loaf). Set the cut-out shapes aside. Spray a frying pan with low-calorie cooking spray and fry the bread until lightly golden, then turn over. Crack an egg into each hole and add the cut-outs to the pan. Cook until the eggs are cooked through. Serve with diced tomatoes and onions and finely chopped fresh chives. Garnish with rocket leaves and a twist of black pepper.

BERRY BOWL

Pour milk (from your allowance) over 2 wholewheat cereal biscuits (from your allowance), and top with fresh or frozen and defrosted mixed berries.
