Seven Day Scarsdale Diet Meal Plan
The Scarsdale diet meal plan was developed by a medical doctor and is based on the premise that a low carbohydrate low-fat diet paired with certain food combinations can result in optimal weight loss. The Scarsdale Diet Meal Plan yields results that other diets without food combinations cannot.
The following is a basic outline of the Scarsdale meal plan. The Scarsdale meal plan can be used in conjunction with recipes (that utilize the given foods) to create a healthy weight loss plan for you to follow.
The Scarsdale diet meal plan is based on a seven-day schedule. Once you complete the seven days, you simply start over from the beginning.
When “Beverage of Choice” is listed you may choose from coffee, tea, water, seltzer water (flavored is okay), club soda, diet soda, or a non-calorie drink. Do not add any sugar, milk, cream, or honey to the beverages. You should only add non-calorie sweeteners such as aspartame, saccharin, Splenda, or Truvia.
