Meal Plans: The meal map will be your guide for keeping track of your day

Some clients want a meal map to follow, period. That’s why I provide you with an ideal meal map of suggested foods in the next four chapters, for each of the upcoming four weeks of the Fast Metabolism Diet. For many clients, however, a more personalized approach sometimes works better, so I’ve provided this section for those who’d like to fill out their own maps for the next four weeks.


The meal map will be your guide for keeping track of your day, like when you get up, what phase it is, and what you will be eating. Your personalized meal map will allow you to fill in the foods youlove to eat, while still staying within each phase. Use the phase-specific food lists from the last chapter or refer to the Master Food Lists at the back of the book to decide what you want ahead of time. Then, when your week begins, you’ll have everything you’ll need, and you’ll know exactly what to eat—and you can be assured it will be foods you already know you like.



When I meet with clients, I help them do this. We spend a lot of time filling out their meal maps based on their preferences. I like to ask them: What foods do you love? I have them highlight all the foods they already know they love on the food list for that phase, and then circle the foods they would like to try. Then I have them look over the food lists and cross off anything they don’t like.


Next, we fill out the meal map. I like to start in pencil and always begin with snacks. Working from the phase-appropriate lists, we fill in the snacks you know you will like. Then we go to the breakfasts and dinners. Finally, we do the lunches because these are good for leftovers from either breakfast or dinnerlike crumbling leftover turkey bacon from breakfast on your salad for lunch, or having a filet for dinner and saving just enough for a steak lettuce wrap for the next day.

STARTED THE DIET AND HAD TO STOP BEFORE FINISHING THE 28 DAYS

STARTED THE DIET AND HAD TO STOP BEFORE FINISHING THE 28 DAYS his diet will always be here for you, and healthy, metabolism-enhancing eating at any time can promote healing and health in your body. Believe me, I understand that life happens. I had a client that was with me for three years and didn’t lose a single pound. The mochas, sudden business trips, divorce, deaths in her family, caring for an elderly parent and just life were enough to pull her off the program again and again. I was impressed we were able to keep her from gaining and keep her diabetes in line. Then one day the stars aligned and she did four straight months of the Fast Metabolism Diet. She lost 65 pounds. I am patient and ready when you are! I’ve got a full 28 days to give you. These are my survival strategies when real life happens and gets in the way of our “perfect” health plan. I know I said that you were mine for only 28 days, but I want you to know the door is always open and the same principles of healing a

Special Diets: Focus on the things that really stand out to you as delicious That being said, you are likely to see a good chunk of weight loss this week.  and sometimes a little more. That can feel scary, too. Some people wonder if it’s happening too fast, if they are burning muscle instead of fat. Others are impatient and think it isn’t happening fast enough, or they fear they aren’t being successful enough. Another thing I warn my clients about for week one is that this week, you’re going to have to get used to having a lot of a lot. What I mean is that on some days, you’re going to have a lot of fruit. On other days, you’re going to have a lot of protein. On some days, you’ll have a lot of vegetables. On other days, you’ll have a lot of fat. (A lot) is designed to enrich the body, giving it the nutrients it needs so that it can manufacture things like muscle, bone, hair, skin, and nails. Don’t forget our main goal here: to transform the metabolism so we can actually extract the nut
