Short Term 1000 Calorie Diet Plan

August 21, 2010

Diets

Due to its low calorie content, it is for short-term use only (eg. 14 days), perhaps to restart weight loss, or as a form of cleansing diet. Ideally, include a daily multinutrient (multivitamin/multimineral) as part of your daily eating to ensure adequate nutritional intake. Please also note that rapid weight loss is not sustainable by following this type of low energy diet. Typically you will lose weight for a short period, but then weight reduction will slow down (as your body conserves calories) and you may feel fatigued and ill. Weight loss research indicates that, unless medically supervised, diets under 1000 calories per day are neither healthy nor effective for long term weight reduction.

165 calories If as part of your eating plan you choose foods with a higher fat or sugar content than those recommended, these extra calories should be taken from your remaining calorie allowance.
