In the process of losing weight, it is best to use proven methods. The favorite diet has become popular among women.
The essence and principle of work
The "favorite" diet is a combination of different fasting days. Its principle is as follows:
- Meals should be separate, that is, you can eat only one type of food every day;
- Food should be strictly limited. This is one of the most difficult diets, but its result is reasonable;
- You need to eat often, but little by little. For example, you can eat a portion of 200 grams every three hours;
- The number of meals per day should be 5-6 times.
After seven days, your stomach will shrink and you will need less food to fill it up.
The main rules
- During the diet, eating is allowed only in strict adherence to the diet;
- It is allowed to drink clean water, mineral water without gas, herbal tea in any quantity;
- On drinking days, you should not drink juice or other sweet liquid;
- Fruit and vegetable salads are allowed during the diet period. In no case do not pour sauce, sour cream or mayonnaise on them. You can limit yourself to just one tablespoon of oil;
- Sweetening and adding salt to dishes is not recommended;
- You cannot drink alcoholic beverages.
Fruit and vegetable salads are allowed during the diet period.
Daily schedule
My favorite diet is vegetables, fruits, drinks and proteins in a certain order. Each of them has its own characteristics.
A drink
Only oral food is allowed on this day, and this can be done in unlimited quantities. This list includes pure water, freshly squeezed vegetable juices (pumpkin, beetroot, carrot), mineral water, herbal teas, compotes.
If the liquid seems sweet or rich, you can dilute it by half with water. You can also use kefir or natural yogurt. A day of drinking is very useful for the body, it removes toxins and excess toxins, helps to lose weight. For prevention, during non-diet periods, such days can be organized once a week.

Vegetables
On this day you can eat only vegetable friends. And you can eat them in absolutely any form: raw, boiled or fried. Food products cannot be fried, salted and various spices added during cooking. Women argue that it is best to eat cabbage (broccoli, cauliflower, white cabbage). This vegetable will cleanse the body, fill it with vitamins and revive it. It is forbidden to eat corn or potatoes on this day.
Fruit
On this day, it is better to eat foods that promote fat burning, such as pineapples and grapefruits. It is also allowed to eat apples, pears, oranges, peaches, apricots, cherries, plums and cherries. There are also some limitations. Grapes and bananas must not be eaten on Fruit Day.
Protein
The protein day allows you to maintain a "good shape" of the body weakened by the diet. Many women ignore this day, thinking that by eating such rich food they can gain weight. This is wrong, because the body will spend more energy to process protein than it absorbs.
You can eat fish, but only cooked and chicken without skin and bones. This useful substance also contains beans, peas, lentils, seafood or egg white. Salt is not recommended. If you want to give it flavor, you can do it with herbs or lemon juice.
In addition to the main days, there is also one mixed day at the very end of the diet. Its essence is that the body should gradually get used to a normal diet. On this day you can eat vegetables, fruits and proteins. Be sure to drink as much clean water as possible.

Sample menu for 7 days
A complete "Favorite" diet for seven days might look like this:
- First day of drinking. You can drink a glass of green tea for breakfast, eat a small portion of chicken broth for lunch, and drink a glass of kefir for dinner. If you feel weak, you can drink a glass of milk in the evening;
- Second day - vegetables. Breakfast - light cucumber and tomato salad, lunch - carrot and beet salad, dinner - vegetable puree soup;
- The third day - a drink (similar to the first day);
- The fourth day - fruits. Breakfast - a glass of juice or one orange, lunch - low-fat fruit yogurt, dinner - freshly squeezed juice and a baked apple;
- Fifth day - proteins. Breakfast - two eggs, lunch - boiled shrimp, dinner - boiled chicken;
- Sixth day - drink;
- The seventh day is mixed. Breakfast - milk porridge, lunch - vegetable soup, dinner - boiled fish.
Withdrawal from the diet
The "Favorite" diet is a rather strict diet. In order for the lost weight not to return again, you need to get rid of it correctly:
- You can not attack food after seven days. The calorie content of meals and the volume of portions should be increased gradually;
- The first day after the diet should look about the same as the seventh day of the diet;
- For the next month, it is recommended to eat low-calorie food so that the result is finally consolidated.
If everything is done correctly, the weight will not only not return, but will continue to decrease.
How many kg can you lose?
