"Favorite" diet - lose weight on fasting days

Fasting days are very popular (especially days on the water), because they allow you to cleanse the body of waste and toxins, which means eating according to a strictly established pattern.The "favorite" diet is based on the principles of such days, and strict adherence to all the rules will allow you to lose approximately 1 kg per day.

What is the essence of the diet?

The "favorite" diet is 7, 12 or 14 days of fasting, during which you are allowed to consume a limited amount of the same type of food according to a strictly regulated scheme.It is advised that during the test you are free from any serious issues and do not stay away from home for a long time, as the diet on most days causes the intensification of intestinal motility and increases the stress on the kidneys.

On the one hand, the result is explained by a significant calorie deficit in the diet menu.On the other hand, weight loss is facilitated by a complete daily change of diet - the body does not have time to adapt energy consumption to one restriction before another is immediately imposed.

For the body, the "favorite" diet is stressful, as it not only has to function in a mode of severe resource restriction, but also adapt to a new type of food every day.Due to this, the effect of weight loss is provoked.

The "Favorite" diet plan for 7 days

If you have chosen a favorite 7-day diet, i.e. a classic and mild version, follow the following feeding schedule:

Days 1, 3 and 6 - juices or drinks

Hunger can be satisfied only with liquid food, but in any quantity.The lack of restrictions applies mainly to still water, unsweetened tea and low-fat kefir.You can also use broth without salt and spices, as well as fruit juices, freshly squeezed fruits and vegetables.Preference should be given to those with vegetables and it is advisable to limit their daily intake to two glasses.

Second day - vegetables

All kinds of vegetables (except potatoes), especially green ones - all kinds of cabbage, zucchini, cucumbers, radishes and radishes, you can even eggplants and tomatoes.You can steam, boil, bake vegetables, but don't fry them.

You can eat salads from fresh vegetables seasoned with lemon juice and even vegetable oil (up to 2 tablespoons per day).All dishes are allowed to be flavored with a certain amount of natural spices, but no salt should be added.

In total, you are allowed to eat 1.5-2 kg of vegetables per day, dividing them into 5 portions.You should also drink 1.5 liters of clean water without gas.

Day 4 - with fruit

Your daily diet is 3 kilograms of any fruit, except bananas and high-calorie grapes.Favorites are fat-burning pineapple, pectin-rich apples and the best fruit for weight loss - grapefruit.

Try to eat fruits that are in season and not those brought from another country.Monitor your body's reaction - if you don't feel well, for example, from bitter grapefruit, choose another fruit.Do not forget about the drinking regime.

Day 5 - protein

You will finally feel full!Try not to rush into food, but eat slowly, in small portions, but often - 6-7 times a day.You can enjoy dishes from chicken fillet without skin and fat, sea fish and seafood, eat eggs (preferably only white), low-fat cottage cheese.Without sauces, spices, salt.Water, as before - 1.5 liters per day.

Day 7 - final

Eat moderately and correctly, eating all the foods you ate in your "favorite" diet on different days.Still without salt and fatty sauces, steamed, grilled, baked in the oven.A sample menu is:

• In the morning:2 eggs.
• Snack:kefir or low-fat yogurt, cottage cheese.
• During the day:low fat chicken soup with vegetables.
• Snack:a couple of apples.
• In the evening:vegetable salad.

And don't forget about a liter and a half of water that you should drink during the day.

You can practice the diet no more often than once every 2-3 months.You can also choose other diets for 7 days.

The "favorite" diet for 12 days

Initially, the "Favorite" diet was created for a week, but it was quickly supplemented with expanded options.So, if 7 days is not enough for you, try a 12-day analogue of this diet.The "feeders" of the network came up with two options for continuation:

First option:

• the 7th day- not a way out of the diet, as with the weekly scheme, but a difficult discharge in mineral water.
• the 8th day— vegetables (you can eat vegetables in any form, as described in the seven-day diet recommendations above).
• the 9th day- kefirYou can drink it in unlimited quantities, but only with a little fat.
• the 10th day- protein.Follow all the recommendations of the 5th day of protein.
• the 11th day- exclusively in green tea.
• the 12th day- exit from the diet, similar to the last day in the seven-day version.At the same time, it is worth replenishing the body's vitamin balance with fruit.

Second option:

The second option involves dividing the entire 12-day period into four three-day mono-diets:

1. Three days of kefir.Low-fat kefir in any amount.
2. Three days with apples.Any apple and in any quantity, raw and/or ripe.
3. Three days of protein.Chicken fillet prepared using dietary methods without salt and spices.Be careful!This is a very large load on the kidneys.You can and should drink water.
4. Three days of wine and cheese.Each meal is 150 ml of wine and 30 g of cheese.The number of such foods is limited only by your alcohol tolerance.Apparently, after such a severe loss of weight during the previous nine days, it is possible to cope with another three only in a state of permanent intoxication.

Those who do not drink wine can replace it with grape or pomegranate juice.It is recommended only if the acidity of the gastric juice does not increase.

The "favorite" diet for 14 days

The favorite 2-week diet does not offer a particularly original diet like the days of summer (or the summer diet).These are simply the two seven-day diets described above in a row.Due to the special duration of dietary restrictions, it is worth extending the drinking days with compote, fruit drinks, jelly and milkshakes with fruit, but without sugar.

On drinking days, some also drink coffee (no more than one cup a day without sugar), fruit and vegetable smoothies, and so-called green smoothies, which are made with lots of greens, water, and a fruit or two.There are options for protein days only in chicken breast.And some recommendations do not exclude potatoes on vegetable day.

So you can adapt your "favorite" diet for 14 days to suit yourself, making it somewhat soft.

General recommendations

Regardless of your meal plan - 7, 12 or 14 days - listen to the following recommendations:

1. Do not try to combine your favorite diet with intense exercise.Its very poor diet will not provide your body with the amount of energy that is necessary for a full workout.Therefore, the effectiveness of fitness will be extremely low, but the likelihood of injury will increase significantly.Just relax.
2. Drinking enough water in the diet is very important, but just as important is drinking the right amount.You should not drink water during or immediately after eating, as in this case it dilutes the gastric juice, which leads to the breakdown of the digestive process.Drink half an hour before meals and no earlier than an hour after.Try to drink small doses throughout the day (up to 50 ml).
3. In order for the results of the "favorite" diet to last for a long time, eat similarly to the seventh day of the scheme for another week.Try to keep in your practice such healthy eating habits as cooking, baking and steaming, limiting salt and sugar and eating in moderation.

The "Favorite" diet: the results

Fans of the "favorite" diet talk about truly unique results: from 5 to 10 kg in 14 days.There were cases when with the help of this diet they lost 14-16 kg in two weeks.

But you should understand that not all of this is excess fat.A large part of the weight loss with such rapid weight loss is fluid and muscle mass.Moreover, impressive results are possible only with impressive surpluses.If you weigh 65 kg, do not expect to lose ten kilograms in 2 weeks;most likely, you will get rid of 2-4 kg:

Contraindications to the diet

Contraindications to the diet are diseases of the excretory system, gastrointestinal tract, metabolic disorders, mental disorders, etc.It is better to look for a less extreme way to lose weight if your medical record contains:

• any kidney and liver disease;
• gastritis and colitis;
• dysfunction of the cardiovascular system;
• eating behavior abnormalities;
• prone to excessive emotional eating.

Also, the "favorite" diet cannot be used during pregnancy and breastfeeding, and after illness or during periods of increased physical activity, it is better to refrain from it.In the next article we will talk about the rules for observing fasting days during pregnancy.

The "favorite" diet is quite strict, so if you have no contraindications, prepare yourself psychologically for a strict diet.At the same time, this is a great option to give the body a "vibration", cleaning it of toxic substances and removing excess weight.
