Eat to Grow Slim
Replace unhealthy foods with health-supporting foods in your diet. This means you need to consume fewer high calorie, dense, dry foods like pastas, bread and cereal.
The Grow Young and Slim Plan is not a quantitative diet, which means you can eat all you want, as often as you want, as long as you choose the proper foods. Even though there are no set guidelines for how much you should eat, we strongly recommend that you avoid overeating because overeating is very hard on the body. The key is to pay attention to your body’s hunger signals and eat numerous, small, high water-content meals as you are hungry. This will burn fat and keep your blood glucose at healthy levels all day.
Choose freely from the following foods:
- • High water, high fiber, low calorie foods
For rapid fat reduction and high energy, eat as much as possible in this category. They range from about 10 – 70 calories per cup and are rich in fiber and water, which have almost no calories:
Lettuce, cucumbers, celery, mushrooms, cabbage, bok choy, cauliflower, all types of squash, turnip greens, green beans, mustard greens, bell peppers (green, red, yellow), asparagus, broccoli, spinach, tomatoes, carrots, Brussels sprouts, beets, artichokes, gazpacho soup, veggie soups, sprouts, water chestnuts, radish, endive, eggplant, zucchini, okra, watermelon, gooseberries, tangerine, lime. - • High water, high fiber, medium calorie foods
These fruits are also to be eaten in almost unlimited use. They range from about 70 to 101 calories per cup:
Grapes, peaches, apricots, oranges, pineapple, pears, papaya, honeydew and most other fruit. - • Medium water, high fiber, medium calorie foods
These foods should be eaten in moderate amounts per day because they have more food density and calories. It’s best to limit them to four one-cup servings per day. They range from 109 to 137 calories per cup:
Mangos, Durian (Malaysia) olives (about 6 green or black olives), green peas, potatoes, corn, sprouted seeds, sprouted beans, sprouted grains, wild rice - • Low water, high fiber, higher calorie foods
These foods should be eaten in smaller amounts per day. They range from about 191 to 291 calories per cup, so it’s best to limit them to three cups per day in order to stay slim:
Bananas, beans, lentils, pintos, etc, brown rice, sweet potatoes, avocado, corn tortillas, soy milk, soy cheese, rice milk, rice ice cream

There is a new diet regimen that is gaining popularity across the world known as the calorie shifting meal plan. As the name implies, it is a diet based on the theory that shifting your calories from meal to meal, from day to day, will trigger the appropriate metabolic response that will induce fat burning and thus rapid weight loss.
Calorie shifting differs from other diet regimens in that you are not restricting the quantity or the types of food that you eat. You can eat as much as you want from all four food groups while you are on this diet. The only caveat is that you must group your calories together in accordance with the pattern that is most conducive to fat loss.

Weight Watchers is unique in that they substitute the word “calories” for “points”. So, every food item has a set number of points assigned to it. No matter if it is a hamburger, pizza, or a banana, it has a point value.

Everyone wants flat abs, and if you’re reading this now, my guess is you do too. But it’s difficult to get flat abs though, right? Wrong. Flat abs are a combination of three key ingredients:
1. Eat right.
This is the crux of flat abs really. You see, the reason people don’t have flat abs is because of the stored body fat that sits over their stomachs. For men, this is naturally where the body deposits long term energy storage (fat). For women, the body stores fat on the stomach, but mostly on the thighs and hips. Unfortunately for us, it’s impossible to reduce fat in specific areas - your body will burn the fat evenly all over.

If you are thinking about losing weight
using a meal replacement program make
sure you read all of the following article
before you make your decision.
Let me first start off by saying that meal
replacement diets are definitely not for
everyone. They can get very intense
at times. Not only are they good for
losing weight, but they are also good
for disciplining yourself because let me
tell you, if you can allow your self to go
through with it for 28 days, then you will
definitely be able to see will power that
you never knew you had. It’s tough, but
if you feel you can go through with it,
kudos to you.
