Greggs launch Summer Diet plan (and sausage rolls are allowed)

Greggs has unveiled a unique way to shape-up for the summer with a new diet to help the weight flake off.

The food-on-the-go retailer created the plan to show that eating at Greggs isn’t just about the steak bakes and there’s a range of healthy food on offer too.

Four dieters including a new mum, a bride-to-be, a sales rep and a teacher with a hectic lifestyle, have collectively lost over two stone of weight and 14 inches from their waists in just 30 days by eating exclusively from Greggs.

In a twist on Morgan Spurlock’s movie Supersize Me (in which the filmmaker piled on the pounds by eating just fast food) Greggs have released their own mini-documentary film “Minimise Me” which charts the journey of the four. 

Independent dietitian Laura Clark devised a 30-day eating plan constructed entirely from its menu, aiming to encourage informed and healthier food choices, alongside a more active lifestyle.

In a poll of 2,000 British adults, Greggs found that the beginning of July is the prime time for Brits to start dieting. Brits aim to lose an average of eight pounds before jetting off on holiday.

Dieters selected from applicants who had particular weight-loss goals ahead of the summer were provided with tailored exercise and meal plans.

These were made up mainly of Balanced Choice menu items providing a range of meal and snack options all at under 400 calories.
