Website design By BotEap.comConsider doing the calorie shift diet between Thanksgiving and Christmas. There is a window of a few weeks between Thanksgiving and Christmas that is a good time to sacrifice and diet. This way you can enjoy both vacations and still do a bit of damage control in between. Then, on January 1st, get back on your diet wagon… if you must!

Website design By BotEap.comWhat does this diet do?

Website design By BotEap.comThe diet tricks your metabolism by making you zigzag and vary your caloric intake wildly and by giving you a specific diet menu to follow that releases fat-burning hormones. Plus, you’re eating 4 meals a day on this diet instead of 3, so your metabolism works a lot harder and helps you avoid weight loss plateau. This diet can be done at any time of the year but doing it at the beginning of December can be helpful because:

Website design By BotEap.comStarting the diet around December 1 could result in a loss of up to 10 pounds by December 11.

Website design By BotEap.comStarting around December 5 could result in a loss of up to 10 pounds by December 16.

Website design By BotEap.comAfter the holidays are over, you’ll probably lose more than the typical 5 pounds you gained over the holidays because most people lose between 7 and 10 pounds.

Website design By BotEap.comThis diet is available online with two components.

Website design By BotEap.com1) A diet guide

Website design By BotEap.com2) An online menu planner

Website design By BotEap.comThe menu planner allows you to simply print your menu and head to the grocery store to get everything you need. Then you just eat what they tell you for each specific day. You will have 4 meals and you can eat them in any combination. There are no measuring or calorie counting and you simply eat until just before you are full. Other guidelines are included, such as plenty of water, moderating condiments, and there are even tips for managing parties or restaurants, which is a big dilemma for many dieters during the holiday season.

Website design By BotEap.comThe best thing about this type of plan is that you can do it when you need it. If you hit your goal weight in January and then get a little down on a holiday or after eating something comforting in winter, you can lose weight quickly just by running the menu builder again and doing another 11-day period.
