This fantastic plan is a refinement on the typical low GI diet. It is complimented with a 20 day follow-on plan which builds up in very small steps, day by day. Joanna’s mantra is: small steps make big changes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA totally effective one day diet for any emergency: whether it's a party, beach holiday, or simply when the excesses of Christmas have left you pounds heavier.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe eating plan is very simple. Not only are you restricted from eating carbs after 5pm but you have a specially selected choice of low GI foods. Many diet books simply give you a list of foods and their GI rating. This is a flawed system as foods react in the body in different ways and over different time scales. Joanna's system uses a refinement on the traditional GI diet that helps you lose weight faster.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSMALL STEPS MAKE BIG CHANGES:\u003cbr\u003eThe 24 hour quick-fix is followed by one small change you can make each day for a 20 day period to help you change the habits of a lifetime. Every psychologist knows that a human is not designed to make sweeping changes all at once: if you try, they're unlikely to stick.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJoanna's small units of change which work up in a careful sequence to the more challenging are an ingenious strategy. For example:\u003cbr\u003e• Day 1 will simply start with making sure you drink 6 glasses of water;\u003cbr\u003e• Day 2 you'll replace your sugary cereal and\/or toast with either a bowl of porridge or unsweetened muesli;\u003cbr\u003e• Day 3 you'll be reducing your coffee intake to one cup a day;\u003cbr\u003e• Day 4 you'll build a half hour walk into your day\u003cbr\u003eThe cumulation of these changes mean that by day 20 you'll be living a really healthy, fit, and slim way of life.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Joanna Hall","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47284820934805,"sku":"9780007293094","price":5.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0484\/3175\/9509\/files\/9780007293094.jpg?v=1776992328","url":"https:\/\/harpercollins.com.au\/products\/9780007293094_the-24-hour-diet-lose-up-to-4lbs-in-a-day","provider":"HarperCollins AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
