Diet Plans And Menus - The Montignac Diet:

The Montignac Diet was invented in the 1990s by Michel Montignac, a pharmaceutical industry executive. In addition to weight loss, this diet has the goal of improving your pancreatic health but to do so you must follow it for at least two months. The first phase is dedicated to losing weight and is followed until you reach your desired weight. The longer this phase lasts, the better off you will be. The second phase is devoted to stabilization and may last the rest of your life. Here are some of the diet principles.

During Phase 1 stop eating several foods. These include sugar, bread, glucides such as potatoes and processed rice, alcohol, and drinks other than fresh fruit juice, skim milk, and decaffeinated coffee. Eat as little fruit as possible and eat them only before breakfast or late at night. Add fiber to your breakfast. Eat a balanced lunch that includes vegetables, animal proteins, and cheese. Supper should be based on lipids and fibers. Start with vegetable soup. Try not to eat meat, but poultry is allowed. Eat a glucide-rich supper three times a week. During Phase 2 you are allowed to add certain items to your diet. Fruit mousse, chocolate mousse, and ice cream are acceptable as are red fruits. Don’t eat cake or pastry because they contain bad glucides. Red wine is allowed, but must be consumed after the entrée.
