Snack-All-Day Diet: Rev your metabolism and lose big!

Good Housekeeping

No one wants to slave over a hot stove in the summer - especially on weekends, when a far more playful agenda kicks in. Our easy, minimal-cooking plan allows you to load up on extended-daylight fun and plenty of goodies from your farmers' market or garden - without overloading on calories (the plan has about 1400 per day).

We've included a bonus weekend plan so you can indulge (a little!) without sabotaging your success. The menus for Saturday and Sunday include fewer snacks to make way for a treat, whether it's a fast-food fix or glass of wine with dinner. Feel free to swap snack for snack during the week; on weekends, only the snacks that don't constitute breakfast, lunch, or dinner are interchangeable. Follow the plan for a month and you could lose up to eight pounds. Now, that's our idea of a treat.
