How to Lose Weight on the Five Factor Diet
Instructions
-
-
1
Eat 5 small meals a day. You should eat throughout the day to avoid overeating at three set mealtimes.
-
2
Add low fat protein to each of your meals. The basic protein in each of your meals should be some type of chicken, fish or turkey.
-
3
Include whole grain carbohydrates in your menu. The Five Factor Diet is not a carbohydrate-free eating plan. You should add complex carbohydrates to each meal.
-
4
Consume a lot of fiber. You get a lot of your fiber requirements from the whole grain breads, fruits and vegetables that you eat while following the Five Factor Diet.

5
Substitute healthy fats for oils and butter. Replace the traditional fats that you use to cook your meals with healthier options such as olive oil.
-
6
Eliminate the sugar from your diet. People traditionally overindulge in sugars by drinking high sugar beverages, such as regular soda. Opt for a sugar-free drink at meals instead.
