The 1200 Maintenance Diet

It is fair to say that most people that struggle with their weight, often become a product of a very complicated and busy lifestyle. They are usually required to work very long hours, travel as a part of their job, and have numerous family obligations to meet long before thinking of their own needs. It becomes increasingly difficult to develop and stick with a healthy diet. What happens in most cases is they become frustrated and give up. They give in and let the stressors of life get the best of them. What if he could simplify a nutritional plan, making it easier to lose those unwanted pounds? If your response is “tell me more” then read on further.

Most of us don’t have time to weigh, measure, and cut food items to structure three meals per day, seven days per week. In most cases, we end up eating the quickest, most convenient choice. Below you will find a comparison between structured daily eating plan consisting of real food items, and alternative simplistic approach. Keep in mind that this dietary approach consists of eating more frequent and smaller portioned meals, and has specific balanced requirements for intake of protein, carbohydrates, and fat. The example below is based on a 1200 calorie diet with the following dietary guidelines;
