Sprinkle 1 envelope Knox Gelatine on ¼ cup cold water to soften. Add 1
bouillon cube and ¾ cup boiling water. Stir until gelatine and bouillon
cube are thoroughly dissolved. ¾ cup of any very hot broth may be used
in place of bouillon.
Also, you’ll find you have a wide choice of delicious, filling Knox
soups, salads and desserts that have so few calories ... _you may have a
serving of any one of them a day and not worry about upsetting your
daily calorie pattern_. Look for these delicious treats in the recipe
section in back of book.
Q. AFTER YOUR WEIGHT GOAL IS REACHED, HOW WILL YOU KEEP YOUR SLENDER,
NEW FIGURE?
A. _The sensible eating habits you form while following the Knox
Choice-of-Foods diet and the Knox “Booster” Drink will help you do
this!_ You will find you’ve lost much of your desire for over-eating.
You’ve seen the dramatic change in your looks and your feelings. You’re
more attractive, feel younger, healthier, happier. Now you want to stay
that way!
With the loss of excess weight, you are now entitled to more calories.
However, always remember, _too many more calories_ will put extra
pounds right back on.
Actually, _you can have about ½ as many more calories as your original
diet plan called for_. For instance, if you were on the 1200 calorie
Knox diet, about 1800 calories is right for you to maintain your new
weight.
As you have already learned on page 8, Protein is the vital key to
feeling and looking your best at all times ... particularly when you are
reducing or _watching your weight_ as you are now doing. The Knox
High-Protein “Booster” Drink[4] made with milk will not only add about
15 grams of useful, body-building Protein to your daily diet, but will
also serve as a healthful curb to your appetite.
