The Monday diet

The Monday diet

Burn calories
Get into the habit of giving just 15 to 20 minutes to exercise. Do a five-      minute warm-up, jogging in place. Jumping rope or climbing stairs. Then perform 10 to 15 minutes of strength training (go to goodhouse-keeping.com and click on Fitness for workouts). The more muscle you build, the more calories you are likely to burn and the more weight you are likely to lose.
Eat a big breakfast     
A recent study of 900 dieters at the University of Texas, El Paso, found that eating a meal in the morning cuts the overall amount of calories consumed during the day. So eat up, but be healthy about it. Some good foods to reach for: oatmeal, Dalia, eggs, paneer or yoghurt (calcium-rich yoghurt promotes fat loss), cereal and fruit.
