So anyway, getting down to business. I know that you all want to look great for this up coming Halloween. Nothing is worse than those unforgiving, skimpy Halloween costumes. I am here with a diet plan for you all to adopt for the next couple weeks. This will help you slim down, and show off those great abs at your next costume party.
First you will need to calculate how many calories you need (BMR). You can calculate this by following my article "Know your numbers". This should be your target calorie consumption. From there you can adjust your portions to these meals to hit your desired calorie amounts.
