Finding the best and the most suitable free diet plan for you is beneficial especially if you aim to stick to a healthy meal plan which can guide you in removing excess fats without having to spend anything. But during the process of choosing the best diet plan, you need to make sure that you pick the most varied, well-balanced and easy to follow option.

Here are just few of the best diet plans that you can try at home that don’t require you to spend money excessively:

1. Diet Plan with 3 Meals and 1-2 Snacks a Day. This meal plan often requires you to focus on getting around two to three servings of lean protein, three to five servings of healthy grains and 3 servings of calcium every day. Each of your 3 daily meals should also come with at least one vegetable or fruit. One of the many things that make this meal plan impressive is that it allows treating yourself to mini-splurges every once in a while. These include sipping a glass of wine, consuming creamy soup and eating a small cookie. Just make sure that you avoid doing all these treats on a single day.

2. Grapefruit Diet. Also referred to as the 3-day diet, the Grapefruit diet refers to a fad diet plan which involves the consumption of one-half part of a grapefruit when taking your meals to rapidly lose weight. Grapefruit is known as a citrus fruit packed with vitamins that promote fullness even with minimal calorie intake. The fruit is also recognized for its ability to burn calories and curb your appetite. Aside from eating grapefruits, this free diet plan also frequently includes taking black coffee, banana, toast and egg for breakfast, crackers, cottage cheese and black coffee for lunch and steamed vegetables, black coffee and tuna for dinner.

3. Low GI Diet. This free diet plan involves the use of glycemic index to take complete control of your blood sugar and reach your weight lose goals. Note, however, that the low GI diet does not necessarily mean sticking to meal plans that are really low in fats and calories. It usually requires you to select low GI and nutrient-dense foods including legumes, fruits, whole grains and vegetables. To obtain excellent results from this diet plan, consider consuming a minimum of 1200 calories every day. This is helpful in proper metabolic function.

You also need to ensure that most of your carb intake is composed of non-starchy vegetables, beans, whole grains like brown rice and oatmeal and fruits including pears, apples, berries and citrus. Among the foods to avoid when trying to stick to a low GI diet are foods that are high in sugar, fruits rich in natural sugars like tropical fruits and foods manufactured using refined white flour including bread and pasta.

4. Carb Free Diet. This free diet plan requires you to avoid eating foods that have high carbohydrate content like granola bars, breakfast cereals, baked goods, pasta, rice, fruits, yogurt, milk, starchy vegetables and sugary foods. It involves sticking to a meal plan which places great emphasis on consuming non-starchy vegetables and moderate amounts of protein-rich foods including fish, meat, poultry, cheese, eggs and sea foods. It also involves taking generous amounts of healthy fats from olive and coconut oil, cream, salad dressings, nuts, avocado, butter and mayonnaise. If you plan to follow the no-carb diet, then you should remember that healthy fats will serve as your body’s main source of fuel.

I believe starting with a detoxification plan first before going into a diet is an excellent way to start off by losing quick pounds. I love this detoxification program:

http://therawfoodsite.com/mastercleanse.htm

If you can handle it you do the diet for 10 days. I lost 10 pounds in 4 days. If you buy the book it has the recipe along with tips from people who have tried it. This is a temporary fix (I could only follow it for about 3 days) but it got me on the track to a better diet.

You might try a simple detox – one of those pills you take that helps clean up your body first like these:

http://www.bowtrol.com/

http://www.gnc.com/search/index.jsp?sr=1&origkw=detox+products&kw=detox+products&kwCatId=&pg=1

At GNC website search under detox – several products come up that you can try. These are less strict than the Master Cleanse.

For a good all around diet try this book:

Skinny B_tch. It’s a simple to understand right to the point book, no frills, no weird diet.

I really like this diet as it gives you a whole new way of thinking. I’ve lost 4 pounds on this diet in 3 days.

Diet Pills- Don’t buy or waste your money. On average they cost between 20-60 dollars and it is basically money down the drain (I am sad to admit that I’ve spent about 40.00 total on diet pills in my life and if I could do it again, I wouldn’t, I’d be 40.00 richer today)

As for a diet plan- well I would give you a very detailed plan but I don’t know your height, weight, age and how much you’re looking to lose nor what foods you don’t like. But I will give you a basic overview and basic direction to where you should be headed.

eggs, white boneless chicken breast (baked, grilled, boiled), oven roasted turkey breast (from the deli), low fat cheese (mozzarella, cheddar, Swiss, Munster), baked salmon (seasoned with lemon and parsley), grilled salmon, chunk light tuna – drained in water, chunk light salmon- drained in water, baked flounder, baked Tilapia- nothing fried, hummus, garbanzo beans, red beans, black beans, natural peanut butter, unsalted peanuts, almonds, almond butter, Brazil nuts, cashews, Greek fat free yogurt, low fat milk, almond milk, soy milk, lean ground turkey or chicken beef, fat free cottage cheese

“Forget Atkins, South Beach, and

Loose 9.5 Kilos In 27 Days…

When You Discover The Most

‘Potently-Effective’ Method For

Melting Fat From Your Body

Like Butter In a Pan…”

And Keep-off those Extra Kilos

For Rest of Your Life.

Dear friend,

You’re about to discover what might be the most powerful fat loss system ever developed. It’s the same system that has been documented and scientifically proven by weight loss experts all over the world.

This incredible system has already had a major impact on the health and lives of countless people all over the world… People just like you.

This is the only diet concept that results in MASSIVE weight loss… And it will work for you, even if you are only 75% committed to following my quick and easy weight loss plan.

What am I talking about…

“The Low Glycemic Index Diet —

Better Known as The Low GI Diet”

Finally, a diet program that WORKS!

The LOW GI Diet focuses on foods that are ‘slow-release’ in your body. What this means is that when you eat any food, your body digests that food either, quickly, or slowly depending on the Glycemic index of that food.

Why is this important…

Well, quick ‘release foods’ are your bodies worst enemy as they are digested quickly by your stomach and your body is unable to burn off the calorie from that food… Causing fat deposits to stick to you.

So, our diet “must” consist mainly of ‘slow release foods’ which allow us to burn off the calories ingested.

Slow release basically means that your body is getting energy from your food throughout the day and therefore your fat stores will be limited as the calories from your food will be burnt off throughout the day.

At Last! .. A Simple Step-By-Step Method

For Easily Loosing Maximum Weight In

The Shortest Time Possible.. While Still

Eating The Foods You Love…

Unlike many diets you will still be able to enjoy the foods you love and enjoy.

The key to the LOW GI Diet is… Moderation! … And the best part is, you don’t need to starve yourself, do weird exercises every day or run hundreds of miles every month… and… certainly you don’t need to take any dangerous or unpredictable drugs for you to see these kinds of amazing results.

The LOW GI Diet is simple… For a weight loss program to be successful it has to be EASY TO DO!.. It’s a basic truth that people just don’t do well on programs that are difficult to follow.

But you don’t have to worry about that with the LOW GI Diet. This plan is so incredibly easy to follow even a kindergartner could do it (and actually it would be very beneficial for kindergartners’ health if they did follow this plan instead of eating all the junk food that today’s youth consume).

Let me ask you a question: How much easier would your life be if you lost 5 to 25 Kilos, had tons more energy and felt healthier than you had in many years? And if you are overweight and feeling bad now, how much worse will it be in 5 or 10 years?

I can tell you from experience that, without a doubt, you will either fix this situation now or your weight will continue to increase and your health will slowly spiral downward.

Turn around your future now… Allow me to introduce.

“The Ultimate Low GI weight-loss Program”

E-book — The Easy, Healthy Way To

Achieve Permanent Weight Loss..”

At last!.. Every ounce of information you need to succeed with the LOW GI Diet is here.

Over the last 30 years, research into food and blood glucose response has completely changed our carbohydrate classification system.

It has been learned that it is impossible to predict the impact on blood glucose levels by certain foods, instead people are fed carbohydrate foods and the response measured.

This response is known as the Glycemic Index (GI), it is a measure of how quickly carbohydrate foods are digested and absorbed, and ranks carbohydrate foods according to their impact on blood sugar (glucose) levels: as indicted by elevated blood glucose

Foods with a high GI are absorbed quickly into the blood stream and cause a rapid rise in blood glucose levels. While foods with a low GI are broken down more slowly over time and keep blood glucose levels more stable (Remember that low is slow!).

Some carbohydrate foods will maintain your energy levels for hours, while some may cause your blood glucose to rise and fall. Different types of carbohydrate can also affect feelings of fullness in the stomach and this can influence hunger and your ability to control your body weight.

Why is the GI important?

When our blood glucose levels are stable we have plenty of readily available fuel for the brain and muscles. If our blood glucose levels drop too low (hypoglycemia) we feel tired, dizzy and generally unwell. If our blood glucose levels rise too quickly a rapid drop usually follows this.

Include low glycemic index foods in meals and snacks to slow the release of glucose into the bloodstream. A low glycemic index snack a few hours before exercise will help maintain your energy levels for more effective training. After high intensity exercise (strength training) a high glycemic index snack should be consumed within 30 minutes. This will help to replace energy and start the recovery process.

Low-GI foods take longer to digest and help delay hunger pangs that little bit more and thus promote weight loss. So please choose your carbs carefully as this will lower your insulin levels and burn more fat. The secret is to swap high GI foods with low GI foods.

Simple steps to a low GI diet.

Step No 1

Start with a healthy, well balanced and varied diet based on a good nutrition program. The diet should be low in fats, moderate in carbohydrate and protein. The program should be high in fibre and contain a varied amount of foods to provide the required amount of vitamins and minerals.

Step No 2

Look at the type of carbohydrates that you consume during the day. Look at the carbs that you eat the most, as these will have the most dramatic impact on your diet.

Try to change the carbs you eat the most with at least one low GI one. (Replace potato with sweet potato, use noodles instead of rice) By substituting half of your daily carbohydrate from high GI to low GI will result in an overall reduction in the GI of your diet.

Reducing the GI in your diet reduces your insulin levels and increases the fat burning apparatus in your body. Try to reduce the high GI’s in your diet by substituting them with low GI’s.

Regular consumption of low GI foods increases the feelings of fullness and satisfaction and so prevents weight gain. Try taking in six small meals a day of healthy low fat low GI foods to prevent overeating at meal times and control appetite.

Remember, that it is also important to look at the calories in food too Rice and bread might be low in fat but when your body is burning the carbohydrates in these foods it doesn’t burn as much fat. So if you are on a low fat diet, you wont loose as much weight if your calories are still high.

Have a look at the table below for the different GI food ratings.

Low GI()

Grapefruit (26)

Baked Beans (15)

Lentils (29)

Peanuts (13)

Soy Beans (15)
Pineapple (66)

Raisins (64)

Sweet corn (59)

Potato Chips (51)

All bran (51)
Cornflakes (80)

W/M Bread (72)

Brown Rice (80)

Carrots (92)

Baked Potato (98)

Compare these two menus and try to adjust your diet accordingly.

High GI Menu

Breakfast: 40 Grams of cornflakes with milk. Two slices of whole meal toast with margarine and jam.

Snack: Two sweet biscuits with a white coffee.

Lunch: Ham and salad whole meal Roll with an apple.

Snack: Four crackers with cottage cheese and chives

Main Meal: Serving of Roast chicken with a large baked potato, peas. And Small piece of cake.

Low GI Menu

Breakfast: 40 Grams of bran with low fat milk. Two slices of low GI toast (Try Burgen) with margarine and jam.

Snack: Two oatmeal biscuits with a coffee (Low fat milk).

Lunch: Ham and salad Roll (Low GI bread). Soft-serve vanilla yoghurt with toasted muesli sprinkled on top.

Snack: Two bananas.

Main Meal: Serving of Roast chicken with a small baked potato and peas. Two scoops of low fat ice cream with half a cup of canned

Chicken, beef, fish, eggs, nuts, and avocados contain very little or no carbohydrates. These foods if eaten by themselves will not have much effect on your glucose levels and are very low GI. Alcoholic beverages especially wine are also low GI so can be included in your diet but remember to count them in your daily caloric intake.

Low GI foods are ideal for loosing weight due to the slow absorption from the stomach. Low GI foods also help to keep blood sugar levels more stable and this has an effect on reducing sweet cravings.

David asks…

How can I lose weight the fastest?

I’m a 5’6, 18 year old female who weighs 290 pounds. I’m not fat, per say.. I’m stocky. Anyways, my High School Graduation is coming up in five months and I want to become thin to look good in my Grad dress. So, I’m thinking a good weight would be 140 pounds.

Basically, I want to lose a 150 pounds in five months. I’ve joined Zumba and I’ve tried cutting down my food intake, but nothing is working. Any tips for a crash diet or just any in general to make me lose weight fast?

Please and thank you!

weight loss cardiff answers:

When you are losing weight, you should exercise and diet together.
If you exercise without dieting, you will get bigger appetite, which
will lead to increase of weight, or muscle grow
underneath the fat layer, and make you bulkier. If you diet without
exercising, you will become flabby and will have excess skin. For
diet, go wheat free. No pasta, pizza, bread and so on. And no food
after 7 p.m. People achieve marvellous results with it. Depending on
your initial weight, you can drop upwards from 20 pounds a month. If
you don’t eat wheat then you don’t eat all those sticky, fatty goey
cakes, you don’t eat junk food, and you don’t eat biscuits. But your
diet is still balanced. It costs nothing, and you do not have to
calculate points or to buy special meals or plans. For exercising,
start with walking, and then switch to running/jogging. Running is the
most efficient and calorie-burn exercise ever. If you are overweight a
lot, walk first or you may have health complications (heart attack,
disjointed bones and so on). Weight lifting is a good means to target
your problem areas for men and women. It’s not necessarily to become a
bodybuilder or even join a gym – a couple of dumbbells will help you
to target your problem areas (stomach, butt, legs, arms, chest).
