The I [love] NY Diet
Abstract: A weightloss plan adapted from a diet developed by Dr. Norman Jolliffe for the Bureau of Nutrition at the New York City Department of Health is a low carbohydrate and low fat diet which allows generous amounts of protein and fiber. Menus are listed for the first 7 days; these meals are designed to reduce weight rapidly. Food preparation tips are provided in a question/answer format. Crash diet menus and eating holidays (maintaining weight) are alternated until the desired weight is achieved. Case histories, heavy weight loss programs, psychological suggestions, and lifetime eating hints for staying slim are included. Menus for dining at restaurants are listed and questions about restaurant ordering are answered. Low calorie recipes are categorized by country. Exercise is encouraged. (rm).
