This diet guide is very good on things like portion control and guiding readers to lower calorie alternatives to their normal shop, indeed I found the advice to be of a good standard and as it’s Good Housekeeping, the selection of recipes are good too. This sensible diet guide will be of benefit even if you need to drop down more than one dress size, its guidance will help refashion dietary and shopping habits for anyone with surplus weight.
