The Vegetarian Plan
About this particular diet..
Becoming a vegetarian doesn’t automatically mean that you’ll lose weight. Big helpings of high-fat protein sources (think cheese and peanut butter) can actually cause vegetarians to gain weight. The solution? Follow our healthy Vegetarian Weight Loss Plan, and you’ll not only lose weight, you’ll boost your overall health at the same time.
Why choose this diet plan?
- Consume more fruit, vegetables and vitamin-rich foods
- Increase your consumption of soy, legumes and beans
- Boost your fibre intake
- Eat a balanced diet including protein from plant-based foods
- Avoid animal products
How to use this diet?
The Vegetarian diet plan is designed for anyone who wants to reduce or eliminate animal products in their diet. This plan offers three options — vegan (completely plant-based), lacto-vegetarian (allowing dairy) and lacto-ovo-vegetarian (allowing dairy and eggs). The Vegetarian meal plan will include high-fiber foods such as whole grains, whole-grain breads/cereals, legumes, soy foods, fruit and vegetables to provide a variety of options.
The vegetarian meal plan is a balanced approach that provides 50-65% of your calories from carbohydrates, 20-25% of your calories from protein and less than 30% of your calories from fat.
What really matters?
The Diet Vegetarian Plan is all about delivering good nutrition in good tasting dishes that allow you to feel good about your decision to go vegetarian.
