Consultant dietician: Dr. Mabel Blades BSC RD.
A healthy and delicious way to lose weight
Discover the centuries-old secrets that help French women stay slim
No calorie counting
Transform your health with simple changes to your diet and lifestyle
A simple but effective weight loss plan that does away with counting calories and eliminating food groups. Backed up by modern science, The Marie Antoinette Diet is based on the eating habits of the 18th-century French queen and generations of French women since. A recipe for painless and delicious weight loss, the book is part memoir and part diet plan, underpinned by some interesting snippets of French history and a lot of modern science. It is not just about weight loss, but the simple lifestyle changes that you can make to improve your overall health.
Instructed by her doctor to lose 10kg (1st 8lb) for health reasons, the author, a former fashion and beauty editor, had a light bulb moment while reading a biography of Marie Antoinette. The French queen ate cake for breakfast and was fond of hot chocolate, but seems to have known instinctively what scientific studies have recently shown: for example, it is not what you eat, but when you eat it. Inspired by Marie Antoinette s eating habits, and using a recipe for the health-boosting wonder broth that the queen ate every evening, the author created a diet that allowed her to lose 10kg in 10 weeks while eating normally most of the time. No calorie counting, no food groups excluded and yes if you follow a few simple rules you can eat cake.
