Thanksgiving Detox

[Guest guest]

Something which might interest you.

 

If your Thanksgiving plate resembled a family-style buffet doused in

lard laden gravy, worry not. This 72-hr detox plan is the perfect

recipe to combat the Thanksgiving weight-gain disaster. Garnish with

8-10 cups of water and a daily multivitamin and dive in. Your

stuffing will skedaddle and you'll be back in your skinny jeans in

no time!

 

Day One

 

BREAKFAST

Vegetable Omelet with Toast: One omelet made with one whole egg and

two egg whites, and stuffed with vegetables (try spinach, onions,

tomato, mushrooms or zucchini sautéed in 1 teaspoon olive oil). Cook

omelet in a nonstick pan or coat a regular pan with cooking spray.

Serve with one slice of high-fiber bread (any brand that has 2 grams

fiber and no more than 90 calories per slice). Optional coffee or

tea (plain or with skim milk, no sugar)

LUNCH

Soup and Salad: One bowl of minestrone, black bean, or lentil soup

(approximately 2 cups or 300 calories of any prepared brand with

nutritional information, such as Healthy Choice, Amy's Organic,

Campbell's Healthy Request). Eat with a mini whole-wheat pita (any

brand, 70 calories), and a green salad tossed with one tablespoon of

low-fat dressing (or 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar and a small dash

of olive oil).

SNACK

Afternoon Snack: One skim milk cappuccino or latte (optional

teaspoon sugar or Splenda) or 8 ounces nonfat, flavored yogurt (any

brand 120 calories or less).

DINNER

Sweet Wild Salmon: Mix together 1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce

and 1 tablespoon honey. Drizzle over a 6-ounce wild salmon fillet

and broil for 10-15 minutes, basting every few minutes. Serve over a

large mound of arugula leaves, with 1 cup steamed broccoli.
