The Anti-diet & Veg juice
Kicking off (energy filled) 2014 here's my route to living your life;employing a modicum of consciousness into your daily nourishment; and opting out of chronic and tortuous calorie counting along the way.I guarantee you’ll feel healthier, have more energy and, should you so desire, lose weight in the process.Happy wholesomely seductive eating!ClareThe Anti-diet: Breakfast like a king
... and supper like a pauper. This is not an old wives tale. In actual fact, for many of us Brits consumed with work, breakfast is a coffee, and lunch a sandwich that can be eaten On the Go. The evening meal is our chance to blow all those daily-banked calories. You have the entire day to burn off breakfast; supper sleeps with you.
Beetroot, carrot, kiwi & ginger juiceI’m going to level with you: making veggie juice is a faff and your kitchen will resemble a war zone. I think it’s important you’re armed with the facts. For this very reason (and in the interests of keeping my job) I make a 3 ltr batch at the weekend, freezing 250ml bottles for morning shots. On the plus side, it’s quite therapeutic, systematically feeding mounds of goodness into a machine which instantly produces an elixir of health. And my skin and energy levels are rejoicing.
The Anti-diet: Blah blah moderation blahhh...
If you do nothing else, heed this tip. I could fill Santa’s sleigh with the Weight Watchers nemesis foods I sample each year, so it’s largely assumed I must have a chocolate spitting bowl. I don’t. It’s very simple but the vast majority of you won’t like what I’m about to say: I stop eating when I’m full.
