If
you need to follow a 1200 calorie diet take a look at the five diet samples
below, they are just over 1200 calories each. The 1200 calorie diets were
never used on two consecutive days they were followed day by day then repeated
after day five. This was done to limit any possible deficiency in vitamins
or minerals.
Some of the meals in the 1200 calorie diets are made up of
ready made frozen
meals for convenience, I sometimes changed them to another brand with
roughly the same calorie content.
I
included many of the foods I love to eat, but simply ate them less frequently
and replaced most with healthy low fat meals. On the 5th day I ate mostly
fruit all day so I could indulge in my favourite take away - a
Chinese curry!
