HOW THE FAT TRIMMER PLAN WORKS.<br />
The <strong>Fat</strong> <strong>Trimmer</strong> <strong>Plan</strong> helps you cut calories by reducing fat to 20% of your<br />
total calories for weight loss. This approach offers the perfect opportunity to<br />
expand your horizons with herbs and spices and fresh foods.<br />
The plan is not a no-fat diet but it is low in fat. Your body will reap the<br />
benefits of taking in less fat and protein exchanges with an emphasis on<br />
complex carbohydrates.<br />
The <strong>Fat</strong> <strong>Trimmer</strong> <strong>Plan</strong> is designed to provide approximately:<br />
• 65% complex carbs<br />
• 15% protein<br />
• 20% healthy fats<br />
Daily meal plans feature:<br />
• Three meals and two snacks<br />
• Controlled portions of lean proteins and healthy fats<br />
• Complex carbohydrates from fruits<br />
• Supplements to support your nutritional needs<br />
• A short daily workout.<br />
The plan uses the Food Exchange System* that is a foundation of the<br />
American Dietetic Association.<br />
Real-life hint:<br />
“I kept my journal on the kitchen counter so I could reference it at all<br />
times. When we traveled, the journal went with me!”<br />

HOW TO ADJUST FOR YOUR PLAN.<br />
The daily meal plans in this journal show the 1,500-calorie plan. Julianne Downes, RD<br />
(Registered Dietitian and Certified <strong>Weight</strong> <strong>Management</strong> Trainer), worked with nutritional<br />
recommendations set by the Nutrilite Health Institute (NHI) to develop the <strong>Fat</strong> <strong>Trimmer</strong> <strong>Plan</strong>.<br />
To follow a 1,200- or 1,800-calorie plan, make the food exchange adjustments as<br />
shown here.<br />
The benefit of food exchanges is that they are flexible. We have provided ranges for specific<br />
food exchange groups to help with meal planning and making the right food choices.<br />
