Maintenance
Maintenance usually begins when weight loss
stops, and can start at about 1500 kcal per day. However, it will vary because
the recommended daily energy intake figures are 2000 kcal for women and 2500 kcal
for men, so some people may still lose some weight if their intake is below these
levels.  The
real danger is – after the ‘exciting’ weight loss phase – that all the old reasons
for being overweight could return. The Cambridge four-stage process helps you
to understand the reasons for your original overweight, and the stabilisation
adds selected healthy food choices. In the maintenance stage, you can continue
this healthy eating and increasing the levels of activity. Many people continue
to use Cambridge once or twice a day – not only to control energy intake but to
carry on getting the benefits of good nutrition.
Keep a regular check on your weight. When
your body weight is increased by more than five pounds above your
ideal weight, it is time to take prompt action. This can be done
by cutting out a conventional meal and having a Cambridge meal instead.
As time goes by, people who have been plagued by being overweight
for most of their lives become slim, and attain great confidence.
The Cambridge Diet is a very powerful tool with which you can control
your weight.

A
Permanent Change One of the most severe criticisms
of the Cambridge Diet made by some psychologists and hospital dieticians, is that
it does not change people’s eating habits in the long term and is therefore useless,
particularly for maintaining weight-loss. To these armchair critics it is just
another fad diet. Nothing could be further from the truth as anyone can vouch
who has used the diet as a sole source of nutrition for several weeks. For the
first time one realises that vast quantities of food are not indispensable to
life. It trains you to live without having food continually on your mind and the
experience has a beneficial effect on most people. There is ample proof that the
Cambridge stabilisation maintenance plan achieves excellent results in returning
the dieter to long-term healthy eating principles |
