Dr Ranj Singh's quick and healthy recipes to save money and lose weight

Dr Ranj Singh’s healthy meal-planner for Sunday Mirror readers is the answer – making food prep easier and healthier than ever. All the recipes come in below the recommended maximum daily intake of 2,000 calories a day for women and 2,500 a day for men. And many of the meals cost less than £2 per portion. ITV doctor and former Strictly star Ranj, 39, says: “These meal plans will help you understand the calorific content of your food – which is the key to losing weight.

“Many people think nothing of tucking into a bag of crisps with their sandwich at lunchtime, but these add-ons can have huge calorific consequences.” If you need to eat a little extra, while still keeping calories under the recommended amount, his book Save Money, Lose Weight – out this week – also contains healthy snacks. 325 calories per serving £0.35 per serving Serves 2 Method: We reveal Adele's plant-based food plan that helped singer shed seven stone.

Low carb recipes/info. Wedding Weight Loss Soup. This week was me and my husband’s 5th year wedding anniversary.

Wedding Weight Loss Soup

Celebrating has brought back so many great memories. Especially, memories about what I ate and how I exercised during the weeks leading up to the big day. Unlike typical brides, my wedding dress was a little revealing and showed off my mid-section! Thinking about showing my stomach to all my friends and family scared the you know what out of me. This was the only thing I needed to keep myself super disciplined day in and day out. I worked out 5 days a week. As I strolled down memory lane, a particular soup I made kept popping up in my mind… So I decided to make it yesterday in honor of our anniversary weekend. I ate this soup every week for a few months. This soup can easily be made vegan by adding one extra can of beans, omitting the chicken, and changing to vegetable broth which sometimes I do, if I make this on Tuesdays, the day that I give up meat entirely each week.
