Welcome to my clinic. Welcome to the best brown bag lunch you have yet to eat, as prescribed by my clinic programmes. Every recipe is designed to help you get and stay lean, as tried and tested on all the clients who have come through my doors wanting to lose weight, some desperate to lose weight. I help them and I can help you.
The really great thing is that this food is part of the solution, not the problem, to getting and staying lean. Plus, you won’t be sacrificing your long term health in the desire to fit into your skinny jeans.
My snack recipes divide into:
1.Dips with raw vegetables (don’t knock it till you have tried it!)
2.Home roasted and spiced nuts and seeds
Clearly, I was not going to suggest that you can get lean on Doritos and cookie bites..but these snacks really are nice and they will make you feel really good.
My dips are a cut above the pastel gloop selection you can find in supermarkets and there is plenty of choice.
You can choose from:
•Homemade humous, it really does taste better and takes 10 minutes to make;
•A red pepper dip called “Red Devil”
•TexMex
•Salmon & Dill
As for seeds, you spice them up with Worcestershire Sauce, paprika. cayenne and lime juice. These are definitely not bland.
This approach is No three juices a day and starvation. Real, nutritious food to help you look great, prevent disease and age well.
It works for my clients and it can work for you.
Before I explain how my programme works, there are two bonus books that you can download at the end of the book. If you download the preview, you can get one of the bonuses now by going to www.threepeaspublishing.com/alcoholfreedrinks. This is a free book about what to drink when you are not drinking. Further detail in this book near the end but you can read it now via our website.
The starting point with my clean as well as lean snacks has to be to rule out the sort of snacky snacks the rest of the population reaches for mid afternoon – chips, chocolate, cakes, cereal bars, flapjacks, brownies and muffins, at least not the ones you buy in a store (see recipes later in the book).
To get lean as well as clean, you have to control your sugar intake and this means not just in your meals, but in your snacks too. That’s what this book is about. The snack recipes in this book are a good balance of proteins, carbs and healthy fats to help you shift fat to get to a lean physique which, most importantly, you can maintain.
Why Snack To Get Lean?
You may be surprised that in a book about getting lean as well as eating clean, I am going to encourage you to snack, but I am.
At my weight loss clinics, I see a so many clients who think the way to lose weight is to eat less; they skip meals, delay their breakfast till lunch, delay lunch till dinner and all the while avoiding snacks as they were radioactive. But….having long sections of the day without food can be your biggest mistake when you are trying to lose weight.
The snacks that I recommend, including the recipes in this book are healthy, filling and will keep your energy levels and mood stable and help you drop any excess weight.
Do you think that creating food deserts for yourself during your day will mean you eat less overall? Do you think if you snack, it will make you more hungry later? Do you think snacks are just ‘empty calories’ that will make you pack on the pounds rather than lose them?
All wrong.
Snacks are an important and healthy part of any daily diet. If you avoid snacks and create long gaps between means you either ‘crack’ and end up picking on high calorie ‘bad’ snacks like chips or chocolate. Alternatively, you make yourself so hungry that you massively over-eat at your next meal. Either way, you will probably consume far more calories than you would have if you had just planned a healthy, balanced snack.
One of the reasons that people cannot stick to a harsh no-snacks, just three meals a day way of eating is it makes you hungry.
