Ann Collins, a nutritionist, runs an Internet website service for dieters. You have to pay a $19.95 membership fee good for a year. This entitles you to diet plans, tips to stay motivated, exercise plans and access to a weight loss forum where you can ask for advice and network with others on the diet. She offers nine different diet plans: this is the Diet for Life Plan. This is a fourteen-day plan of meals and snacks that add up to about 1300 calories per day. You can increase that to 2000 calories by adding more approved snacks. It’s a slower weight loss plan designed to help you reach and maintain your ideal weight “for life.”
