Rules of the Alternate Day
Diet
Dr Johnson
suggests that:
* For the first fortnight
stick to just 500 calories on the fasting days to make
sure you trigger the skinny gene (to make certain of your
intake, try pre-packaged shakes or meal
replacements).
* After that, you can eat
regular food on the fasting days. How much depends on
your goal. Up to 35 per cent of your recommended daily
intake will help you lose weight. Eating 50 or 60 per
cent should allow you to maintain your
weight.
* You can eat as much as
you want on the alternate days, but don't binge. Make
sure you have fruit and vegetables. It's important to
enjoy these days to avoid getting fed up with being on a
diet.
* Drink plenty of water and
exercise regularly, especially on the eating days. Weigh
yourself only once a week, on the morning after a fasting
day, so you won't become frustrated by normal weight
variations.
