The Effective 1200 Cal Diet Plan

Amongst diet plans that have been regarded as effective and safe, 1200 calorie diet plan is one. This is a very strict diet plan that requires the dieter to be disciplined. Most people wonder how someone can stay on such a restrictive diet. In truth, it is not that difficult to follow this diet because eliminating junk foods alone will do a lot of good.

The main foods that people on 1200 cal diet plan should concentrate on are, fruits, fresh vegetables, low-fat dairy, grains, proteins (lean meat) and lots of water. Strict NO-NO to sugary foods, oily foods and sodium rich foods. A high fibre content diet would do wonders.

As said earlier, plenty of water is mandatory to flush out toxins from the body during this diet. It is best to avoid alcoholic drinks, beverages, sugary juices and even soda.
