The 1800 Calorie Diet Plan

The 1800 calorie diet plan is a good diet plan for people who want to lose weight gradually, those who want to lose more than 50 pounds and for those who weigh more than 220 pounds.

Why lose weight slowly

While most people want instant results, it sometimes makes sense to lose weight gradually. It is easier to stick to a diet if you are not on an unduly restricted diet. And if you come in any of the categories above, it is a good diet plan.

The need for protein

On the 1800 calorie diet plan you should have 150 to 175 grams of protein daily. The high protein intake will ensure that you do not compromise on muscle mass and that your body gets enough protein. Protein also keeps you full longer since it takes longer to be digested and be used as fuel by the body.

One day meal plan

Here are 2 alternative for 1800 calorie diet plan:

• Using Herbalife’s high-protein meal replacements is the first and best one.
• A second alternative is taking the food in controlled portions. But this is very difficult, because we like to eat, even if not hungry.

Breakfast -

should comprise Herbalife protein shake made up of 2 scoops for Formula 1 in any desired flavor, 3 tablespoons of personalized protein powder and 1 cup soy or non fat milk blended together. You can either blend some fruit in the mix or have it separately.

Lunch -

can be the same as breakfast.

Snack -

on any of Herbalife delicious protein snacks at least twice a day with fruit.

Dinner -

should be a full meal, but here you can have two portions (fist sized) of protein (lean white or red meat, fish, and vegetarian substitute), 4-5 portions of vegetables and fruits and one multi-grain or whole grain roll or pasta.

Dieting tips:
