The first step in Dr. Oz’s May Diet is to adjust your
eating to drop some water weight. This is the fastest weight to lose, and the
fastest weight to find again. Dr. Oz recommends decreasing your carbohydrate
intake so that your body doesn't retain as much water.
The May Diet places a lot of emphasis on the “80/20 rule”
which says that every meal should have 80% low glycemic-index vegetables and
20% protein. Low glycemic-index vegetables include cucumber, squash,
cauliflower, broccoli, celery, tomatoes, cabbage and asparagus. That’s a very low
carb intake, which is all part of the plan.
Another premise of the May Diet is suggesting that you
drink your dinner. No, not a martini, sorry! Instead, Dr. Oz suggests soup for
dinner. That takes the load off your digestive system. Again, the soup should
follow the 80/20 rule.

Feeling hunger pangs or an energy slump? Try one of the
May Diet’s high fiber, high protein snacks. Think fruits, nuts, lean cold cuts
and you’ll have the message. Don’t let yourself be hungry, that’s the path to ditching
your diet. Instead, make yourself a proper snack and stay on track.
A surprising suggestion from the May Diet: take a vitamin
B complex supplement every day. Dr. Oz says that this can supercharge your
metabolism. He suggests staying away from multivitamins that contain everything
but the kitchen sink, and instead find a good B complex supplement that covers
100% of your daily allowance.
