| Approaches
to Losing Weight
Consume
fewer calories than your body uses.
This
is the only way to lose weight. You can
add to this rule that excercise tones up
your body and provides other health benefits.
But every diet in the world boils down to
this simple reality. The difference between
them is not what they do for you - but HOW
they work.
The
Cambridge Diet SoyaSlim® is a flexible
product that can be used as the Sole Source
of nutrition for fast, predictable weight
loss with nutritional assurance; with conventional
food for more gradual weight loss; or with
food for weight maintenance or nutritional
supplementation.
Sole
Source of Nutrition
If you decide to use the Cambridge Diet
SoyaSlim® as the sole source of nutrition,
it is essential to take no fewer than three
full portions (Note 1 & 2 below), and
to drink at least 2 litres of calorie-free
liquid each day (Note 3 below) in addition
to the water used to mix your SoyaSlim®
meals.
You are allowed to follow the Sole Source
programme for a maximum of four weeks at
a time (Note 4 below).
Notes
-
To be sure of obtaining your complete
nutritional requirements, you should take
four portions if you are a woman over
173cm (5ft 8in) tall or a man.
-
A portion can be a drink or soup sachet,
or a Cambridge bar. No more than one meal
per day should be a bar.
-
Water, black coffee or tea; add a further
200ml for each Cambridge bar you use instead
of a sachet.
-
Your Counsellor will advise you how to
proceed if you have further weight to
lose or if you are ready to maintain your
new target weight.
With Conventional Food
Part of the attraction of The Cambridge
Diet SoyaSlim® is that it is part of
a flexible range of programmes which allows
it to be used with conventional food in
a series of Steps (820 kcal, 1000 kcal,
1200 kcal or 1500 kcal). These help the
user to stabilise after weight loss and
to gradually increase the intake of conventional
food and move back to a normal eating pattern.
These steps are also important if you begin
with the Sole Source programme: once you
have reached BMI 25, you move up to Step
2 - 820 kcalories.
You may also use SoyaSlim® together
with conventional food to lose weight more
gradually.
In any of these cases, you should follow
the eating advice which your Counsellor
will give you.
