Little Black Dress Diet

Little Black Dress Diet

Originally devised for people who need to lose weight for health reasons, this no alcohol diet helps you lose weight quickly using food combinations (eg you can't mix protein and carbohydrates) to help you quickly look great in that LBD.

What is it?

It's a 10-day plan devised by nutritional consultant Michael van Straten for people who need to lose weight quickly for health reasons. But he admits there's no reason why you shouldn't use it now and again for an emergency Little Black Dress moment. Followed religiously, you could lose up to 10lb in 10 days!

How does it work?

The LBD diet is loosely based on the idea of food combining. The basic idea is that you don't mix protein and carbohydrates, or starch, in any meal. Some experts believe this helps our body digest food easily and so avoids weight gain. As well as following the meal plans, you're advised to take certain vitamins and herbal tonics to boost your immunity. You're also told to avoid alcohol which in itself will probably help you lose weight.
