The 100% Satisfaction Diet
Below you'll find a week's worth of tasty meals. Each day's menu supplies you with 1,600 calories. That may not sound like a lot, but many of those calories come from high-quality carbs that will give you energy and keep you full. At the end of week one, start the plan again and you'll be zipping up your skinny jeans in no time.

Seven Day diet eating plan:
Monday
Tuesday
Wednesday
Thursday
Friday
Saturday
Sunday

A list of low to high GI foods

Cardio Workouts
To reach your 10-pound goal, you'll need to do at least 300 minutes of cardio and two or three strength sessions a week (in addition to following the 100% Satisfaction Diet, above). Couple these cardio workouts with the sculpting moves from our January 2008 issue (p. 116-123) for a fresh routine every time you head to the gym.

Monday
Do Monday's moves and the Speed Play cardio workout.

Tuesday
Do the Power Hour cardio routine.

Wednesday
Do Wednesday's moves and the Incline Challenge cardio workout.

Thursday
Do 45 to 60 minutes of any activity at a moderate intensity (the level at which you can hold a conversation).

Friday
Do Friday's moves and the Incline Challenge.

Saturday or Sunday
Do the Power Hour or up to 60 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise (see Thursday's plan, above). Rest on the other day.
