About to get married? Here’s how to lose weight in 4 weeks

the same. And no two bodies will lose weight at the same rate. Some of us also won’t follow the programme as strictly (we’re all human after all), so this time frame is what works best to lose this amount of weight.

Drink as much water as possible to keep hydrated through the programme. You need 1 litre of water a day for every 10 kg that you weigh.

The plans outlined are a skeleton or a base for you to expand on. Be creative. Remember to make

this YOUR plan, so take cues from it and adapt it to suit your palate—as long as it isn’t high-calorie food stuff! Use the oil-free recipes provided in this book to explore further into the art of low-calorie, delicious and nutritious meals. Losing up to 5 kilos is not going to be difficult. You

just need to work hard enough, stay off the processed food, and eat like I’m taught you, and you’re going to be slipping into that bodycon dress in no time. Without a hint of a bulge! So let’s get you started!

A Note on the Diet Charts

Below are three examples of ideal meal plans. You will get maximum benefits if you adhere to the plans outlined. However, these plans are a skeleton of what your meals should be like, and you can adapt and tweak them to best suit your palate. This doesn’t mean that you switch wholesome foods for chocolate and deep fried items! Try to eat your meals as close to the given time as possible, otherwise it defeats the purpose of the diet. If your meal timings are drastically different from what I’ve outlined, take baby steps—gradually bring your eating time to match what I’ve given. The most important factor for success is timing, so you need to work on that first. Once you’ve managed to meet that requirement, then turn your concentration to the food part. Most importantly, have fun doing this! Bon appétit!
