Whether you're eating less because of hormone changes, stress, recovery or GLP-1 medications, eating well when you're eating less means you need extra care to get all the nutrients the body needs. Eating smaller portions carries the risk of a shortfall in protein, fibre and micronutrients, and GLP-1 drugs or hormonal changes come with their own nutrient needs. But by focusing on hero whole foods and nutrient-rich ingredients, you can make your portions go a long way. Nutritional expert Angela Dowden explains exactly what nutritional challenges to be aware of, and how to tackle them. These 80 recipes focus on nutrient-dense, whole-food ingredients that pack protein, fibre, vitamins, and minerals into manageable servings. Packed with ideas for low-effort and no-cook recipes, as well as easy additions to any meal, this is the smarter way to eat smaller portions.

Macro counting is all about balance. By eating the right ratio of carbohydrates, fats and protein, you can lose weight and build muscle in a healthy, sustainable way without avoiding the foods you love. This flexible approach to dieting encourages you to make smart food choices that guarantee results. The Macro Method will tell you everything you need to know about counting macros, including the latest research about how the diet works and its nutritional benefits. The 21-day plan will help you ditch the calorie counting for good, with more than 40 simple recipes to tempt you.
