Shape Up your Diet! Featured


Start today and join us as we Shape up Ireland!

Week 1 - Shape Up your Diet!

It's time to stop tormenting yourself with yo-yo diets, guilt trips and silly food fads. Yes! Ditch the dud diets and start living life to the MAX with Unislim's NEW Food Maximizing plan. It's flexible, it's fun, it's easy to follow and it even allows you to eat chocolate and still lose weight. But better still, it will help you achieve the body and high vitality you've always craved! So what are you waiting for?

Here's our FREE 3 Day guide to get you started and don't forget you can pick up your own 32 page copy when you join your local Unislim class!

You’ll love Food Maximizing with Unislim and once you get started you’ll find there’s so much choice, flexibility and freedom to enjoy your favourite foods and still lose weight. To achieve maximum weight loss in your first week we suggest you give up all liquid calories for the next 3 days. That’s no alcohol, no sugary fizzy drinks or fruit juices. Simply include plenty of water (around 8 glasses per day) and some tea and coffee if you like.

The Rules

Step 1 Go For FREE! Maximize your weight loss by powering up on lots of FREE veg and lean protein foods. Every vegetable is free, some fruits and all lean, low-fat proteins are free too. So enjoy these foods to the max!

Step 2 Choose up to 5 servings from the carbohydrates daily. Make the most of the Low GI choices.

Step 3 Include 3 meals per day plus 2 snacks. A snack can be as simple as a piece of fruit or a pot of low-fat yoghurt.

Step 4 You can have up to 3 servings of fats – please weigh these and stick to quantities.

Lunch

A rather nice soup!

UNISLIM VEGETABLE SOUP

 

4-6 servings

500g chopped vegetables (any vegetables of your choice)

1-litre chicken or vegetable stock

1 bay leaf

Crushed clove of garlic (optional)

1 tsp curry or chili powder (optional)

Place all the ingredients into a large saucepan, bring to the boil and simmer for 30 minutes. Allow cooling. Liquidize and reheat before serving.

This soup tastes better when made a day in advance of eating. To change the flavor, add a tin of tomatoes or alternate a dominant vegetable for a different taste. Add chopped herbs just before serving.
