Weight Loss Tips
Using Your Menu Plan Diary
Your Menu Plan Diary not only contains the number of servings allotted to you for each of the nine food categories, but it also is a direct link between what you should eat and what you are eating. It is a valuable weight loss tool.
Writing down the foods you eat every day helps you become aware of your food choices, identify your food triggers and recognize if you are eating too much or too little. Research has shown that keeping a food diary is one of the most, if not the most, important part of lifestyle change.
Use your Diary to record the following daily about what and how you eat:
- Keep track of your Meal Combos and circle for which meal you used each one (B for breakfast, L for lunch, D for dinner and S for snack)
- Check off your allotted servings and LA Lites™ as you consume them.
- Record everything you eat and drink immediately after consuming it. If you wait too long, you’ll forget, so make sure to carry your Diary with you everywhere you go.
- Record your portion sizes, how much of each food you ate, and include how it was prepared. Be honest!
- Write in the time of day at which you eat each meal, snack and LA Lite.
- Indicate which meals you ate in restaurants (including fast food) by selecting Dined Out.
- Check off your daily water intake and your daily supplement intake.
- List what Extras you choose each day.
- Write in any and all Free Vegetables that you consume.
- Record any exercise and the amount of minutes for which you performed it.
Also, the first page of each week includes questions prompting you to evaluate your menu planning skills, identify your weekly motivation and commit to an exercise plan. This page is important because it helps you set weekly goals and remain focused. When undertaking any new venture such as a weight loss program, proper preparation and continued motivation are critical to succeeding, so use the tools as often as possible.
Using LA TakeOFF™ Juice to Promote Consistent Results

Using LA TakeOFF every 14 days helps to regularly cleanse and rejuvenate your weight loss by changing your diet for 2 days to help promote more consistent weight loss. Your Menu Plan Diary incorporates the TakeOFF2 diet plan every two weeks as a reminder of the importance and value of using LA TakeOFF every 14 days and to emphasize its importance in consistent weight loss.

The TakeOFF2 Diet Plan can be found in the back of your Diary for easy reference. During your two days following the program, you should make your food selections only from the list of options provided on the TakeOFF2 Diet Plan explanation pages, and you should consume the LA TakeOFF juice as instructed.
At the end of every two-week period, there are two pages in your Diary dedicated to following the TakeOFF2 Diet Plan. These pages provide you with an efficient and convenient format for recording your food selections while you follow the TakeOFF2 program.
10 Rules for Rapid Results
Follow These Ten Tips Daily to Help Maximize Your Results.
Losing weight takes commitment and focus and the first step toward getting serious weight loss is getting serious about your weight loss program. Carefully review each of the 10 Rules for Rapid Results and refer to these rules each day, using them as a checklist to ensure that you are on target to hit your goal weight. If you are serious about getting rapid results, focus on these specific rules and incorporate them into your daily routine to maximize your success on the program:
Rule 1: Weigh, measure and count all of your foods so you know exactly how much you are eating. Portion sizes can be deceiving and misjudging them will hinder your weight loss. Remember, if you’re having trouble, LA Snacks and LA SlimDown™ are easy portion-controlled options.
Rule 2: To hold yourself accountable, record and keep track of what you eat daily. Fill out your Diary pages completely; the more information you record, the more information you will have to recognize patterns and make improvements.
Rule 3: Consume all of your assigned daily servings including 2 LA Lites each day. Your assigned servings provide you with the nutritional components you need and eating less than these servings or skipping portions can actually slow weight loss by slowing your metabolism.
Rule 4: Follow your Meal Combos and change your eating routine often by eating them in a different order. Each Meal Combo has a structured calorie amount and shifting around the order in which you eat them adds variety and prevents boredom helping to avoid deviation.
Rule 5: Because restaurant meals are generally over-portioned and full of hidden fats, sodium and calories, prepare all of your meals at home and limit dining out. Cook by steaming, baking, roasting or grilling – not frying – and always use nonfat cooking spray instead of butter, oil, fat or grease.
Rule 6: Use LA TakeOFF Juice as part of your regular routine. It cleanses the body and rejuvenates your metabolism so follow the TakeOFF2 Diet Plan every 14 days to promote the healthy conditions in the body that optimize weight loss.
Rule 7: Avoid alcohol as much as possible. Even though light beer and wine are options, not only does alcohol add empty calories, but it impairs judgment which can lead to overeating and deviating.
Rule 8: Drink at least eight 8oz glasses of water every day (64oz/2L) to stay hydrated and to help prevent your body from retaining water. When consuming additional beverages, avoid anything with more than 10 calories per serving. This cuts out extra calories that provide little value.
Rule 9: Take your LA SmartTrim™ Nutritionals daily to give your body the nutrients it needs to support optimum health and to assist in healthy body functions including metabolism while you work to lose weight.
Rule 10: Exercise at least three times per week to burn calories and increase weight loss. Not only does exercise help you burn calories, but it builds muscle and improves muscle tone which contributes to an overall improved appearance.
