What is a balanced diet and who is it balanced for? Is a balance diet the same for an Eskimo as it is for a Tropical Rain Forest Indian?

There is so much information out there and so much of it conflicting. To really find the right diet for your genetics you need to do a metabolic typing test which we can run for you (£50), but you can start right away by using the information we have given you in the previous post and combine it with the  information in this one.

Below you will find a table with different types of diets in. The first day is a carbohydrate diet, the second a balanced diet and the third a higher fat diet.

Using the daily check record (DCR) sheets that we provided in the previous article and using this meal plan you should be able to determine which food plan makes you feel and perform at your best and therefore how to balance your diet for optimum results.

In the table you will find a 3 day meal plan for each diet type. Eat to a specific type for the 3 days keeping a DCR for meal so that you can determine which is the right style of eating plan for you.

As neither you nor I have been able to make it to boot camp over the last couple of days and this evening I lost my car in the snow on Warners end hill coming back from the town, Clare and I decided that there was no excuses for you not to work, out when we can tell you what to do and you can do it in your spare room or living room.

No excuses!

So here it is the Fit body “home” weight loss work out!
