On fasting days, you may think that you can’t enjoy the meals you love and are used to having. Not to fear, because you CAN, with a few better choices along the way. Here is how to enjoy a ‘normal food life’ and still lose weight by choosing a LOWER CALORIE option over a HIGHER CALORIE OPTION, also known as choose this over this or a swap! We have put together two full days of meal swaps, saving a very impressive number of calories eating very similar foods to what you’re used to, with a little more nutrition, and much less calories.
All of our low-calorie meals can be found in SuperFastDiet’s members recipe library!
