The most popular diets for anorexics, how to lose weight quickly and effectively?

In the quest for ideal proportions, many female representatives do not recognize any boundaries. Some women deliberately bring themselves to an almost exhausted state. This is related to the popularity of strict weight loss methods. Diets of anorexics should not be considered a healthy eating technique. But they help you lose weight significantly.

Rules and recommendations of the DAN diet

For those who are not afraid of difficulties and hunger, and who want to try this method of losing weight, you need to know the basic rules:

1. Every day you need to drink at least two liters of clean drinking water without gas.
2. It is necessary to keep a food diary to record every bite eaten and not go beyond the boundaries of 500-700 kilocalories.
3. Every day, the product chosen for the mono-diet should be divided into 6-7 parts in order to eat as often as possible.
4. When eating, you need to be as concentrated as possible on your food, chewing every bite thoroughly. You should not watch TV, read a book or talk to someone at the same time.
5. You will have to give up physical activity during the diet; your body may not be able to withstand it. But you can and should walk for several hours a day.
6. To compensate for the lack of nutrients in the body, you should take vitamin and mineral complexes.

However, the main requirement of the DAN diet remains strict adherence to a menu composed only of permitted products. Usually allowed to use:

• Green or fruit tea without sugar with added milk;
• Dark dark chocolate (at least 70% cocoa);
• Cereals, preference should be given to oatmeal, buckwheat and rice;
• Low-fat fermented milk products;
• Fresh vegetables and fruits;
• Lean meat without streaks and skin (chicken, beef, veal);
• Lean fish.

Products can be boiled, stewed or steamed. Use salt in minimal quantities.

Don't distract your mind from food

To stretch out your meal for 20 minutes, you need to learn to enjoy the taste of food.

If you really like the food, then your eyes close by themselves. With your eyes closed, it is easier for your brain to focus on the taste of food.

Eating a quick meal in front of the TV or while reading a book tricks the brain. The brain thinks that it didn’t eat enough because it was distracted by a movie or book.

“Don’t make a cult out of food!” This phrase can be understood in two ways, because uncultured food consumption can also be harmful to health.

There is no Wi-Fi in good restaurants, because cultured people do not search for information on the Internet during meals.

To control your appetite, you need to be able not to get bored while thoroughly chewing your food and remain a cultured person.

Pros and cons of the DAN diet

The proposed weight loss option is designed for almost two months, which is quite a long time. The daily diet for each of the 50 days ranges from 500 to 700 kilocalories. As a result, maintaining such a diet is very difficult both mentally and physically. Moreover, such a regime can also have a detrimental effect on human health.

The only advantage of the DAN diet is rapid weight loss. According to promises, up to 25 kilograms for the entire course.

But even for such a great result, few people agree to subject themselves to such torment. Because of this, diets for anorexics have been developed for rapid weight loss in a shorter period of time. Let's look at the main ones.

Set the goal correctly

The dog must see the hare. Do you see your hare?

I worked in a gym for 20 years and never met anyone there who had seen their hare. When I asked people who paid $2,000 to sit on a machine, “What is the purpose of your workout?” - then everyone answered something like this: I want to look good.

But what does it mean to look good and live well? This “good” is different in everyone’s head.

The goal cannot be described in words - it can only be felt. And when people tell me “I want to look good,” I don’t feel that their mood changes after their words.

Before drinking, when the bottle is placed on the table, men who like to drink begin to get drunk and have fun at the mere sight of the bottle.

Gourmets can spend hours talking about how great their dessert turned out, a recipe they learned from their friend.

Real purpose is a song that has genuine emotion.

Agree that the phrase “I want to look good” is too dry and too boring to be a goal that lifts the mood and causes excitement in the nervous system.

If the words that describe the goal do not evoke feelings not only in those listening, but even in those speaking, then this is not a goal, but an excuse for spending 2 thousand dollars for a card to a fitness club for some reason.

Let's replace the word goal with the word motive and remember the old man Henry Ford, who said: “A person has two motives for behavior: one that is real and the other that sounds good.”

When I trained young, well-groomed and unmarried women, they might ask: “Leo, who is that old man over there on that simulator?”

And I could answer: “This is a former Soviet workshop worker, and now they are engaged in mining.”

And then the woman could say: “Lion, isn’t it time for us to train our muscles on that simulator next to this elderly man?”

I saw different people: young women who looked out for older men and older men who did not want to go home to their old wives in the evening. But all these people had a motive that sounds beautiful - “I want to look good.”

Very rarely did I hear the real motive.

For example, I asked a friend: “Tell me, what do you want?”

He replied: “I cannot cope with the goal of being like you. But I remember well how I felt when I weighed 75 kilograms. To hell with these cubes. I miss that 75 kilogram body."

As long as the description of goals does not contain emotions expressed in strong words, this is not a goal, but an excuse.

Anorexic diet for 7 days

The weekly version of the diet reduces only the number of days, but not the severity of the diet. The diet will almost always consist of liquids only, while solid food will appear on the menu only a few times.

Sample diet menu for anorexics for 7 days:

1. The first day. Breakfast: a glass of warm water. You can add a slice of lemon. Second breakfast: a glass of natural grain coffee without sugar. Lunch: vegetable juice with pulp. Dinner: a glass of low-fat kefir.
2. Second day. Breakfast: a glass of warm water. You can add a few tablespoons of lemon juice. Second breakfast: a piece of low-fat hard cheese, one orange. Lunch: 100 g low-fat cottage cheese, a glass of fruit juice (preferably diluted with water). Dinner: a glass of natural yogurt.
3. Day three. Breakfast: a glass of warm water and lemon. Second breakfast: a glass of coffee substitute with milk Lunch: one green apple, a glass of rosehip infusion. Dinner: a glass of green tea with ginger.
4. Day four. Breakfast: a glass of warm water. You can add a slice of lemon. Second breakfast: 30 g of dark dark chocolate (at least 70% cocoa), a glass of natural bean coffee without sugar. Lunch: one grapefruit Dinner: a glass of low-fat kefir.
5. Day five. Breakfast: a glass of warm water. You can add a few tablespoons of lemon juice. Second breakfast: a glass of weak black tea with milk, a few pieces of pineapple. Lunch: fresh vegetables (one cucumber and one tomato). Dinner: a glass of natural yogurt
6. Day six. Breakfast: a glass of warm water and lemon. Second breakfast: one banana, a glass of immortelle infusion. Lunch: a slice of whole grain bread with hard cheese. Dinner: a glass of low-fat kefir.
7. Day seven. Breakfast: a glass of warm water. You can add a few tablespoons of lemon juice. Second breakfast: a glass of natural grain coffee without sugar Lunch: a piece of whole grain bread with hard cheese. Dinner: a glass of low-fat kefir.

As you can see from the menu, not everyone can withstand such a week. However, those who still can, will lose from 5 to 8 kilograms of excess weight.

Well, the most desperate ones, with steely willpower, in order to achieve greater results, extend such a diet for two weeks.

Anorexic diet for 14 days

Certain types of DAN

In addition to the classic versions of the DAN diet, which differ mainly in duration, there are two varieties with a special diet. One is completely drinkable, the other is chocolate and drink based.

Drinking

In this option for losing weight until you become anorexic, you are allowed to consume only liquid food. These can be any drinks, the choice of which determines the duration of the course:

1. On the water - you can only drink clean water, at least 1.5 liters per day. In fact, this is a regular fast, which can be observed for no longer than 3 days, so as not to harm your health.
2. Vegetable broth - It is recommended to use homemade broths cooked with one or more different vegetables. The duration of this technique can be 1 week.
3. For dairy products - most often 1% fat kefir or milk tea (tea brewed with milk) is used. You need to choose one of the indicated products and drink only it during the day. The weight loss course can also last up to 7 days.
4. For fresh juices, you can only use natural, self-prepared fruit, vegetable or fruit and vegetable juices. On this DAN diet you are allowed to lose weight for 2 weeks.
5. Mixed option - you can drink any of the above drinks, which will make your diet a little more varied and the weight loss process a little more comfortable. Therefore, the duration of weight loss can be 30 days.

The mixed drinking diet DAN is even considered useful. This method of nutrition allows you not only to lose weight to the point of anorexia, but also to cleanse the body:

• during the first 10 days, the hollow organs are cleansed;
• in the next 10 days, the tissues are cleaned;
• at the final stage, the entire body is cleansed at the cellular level.

For the process to be as effective as possible, in addition to nutritious drinks, you need to drink at least 1.5 liters of water daily. In the early stages, hunger can be unbearable due to the constant urge to chew food. But after a week, the body and psyche are rebuilt, so the feeling of hunger dulls.

Choco-drinking

The prefix “shoko” can be confidently used for any type of the DAN diet, since each of them is a shock to the body. However, in this version, the name “choco-drinking” means a weight loss technique based on alternating a chocolate and drinking mono-diet. The difference between this type of menu for anorexics is that chocolate should be consumed together with cocoa - 6 cups a day without sugar, cold or hot. The shock-drinking weight loss course is designed for 1 week and the loss of 6 kg of excess weight.

The advantage of this technique is due to the presence of substances in chocolate that promote the release of the “happiness hormone” serotonin. But this does not make the diet less strict and stressful for the body, since it lacks protein, fiber and other nutrients.

For each day of the DAN chocolate diet, only 100 g of dark dark chocolate is allocated, which must be divided into 5-6 pieces and consumed together or alternately with the indicated six cups of cocoa.

There are also several other options for the DAN chocolate-drinking diet menu. Each of them necessarily contains the same 100 g of chocolate (72–80% cocoa), which can be washed down with other drinks:

• coffee without any additives;
• green tea (unsweetened);
• still mineral water.

The amount of liquid you drink per day is unlimited, since these drinks have zero calorie content and do not at all prevent you from “turning” into an anorexic. In any variant, chocolate can be washed down or consumed separately from drinking. You also need to drink plenty of clean water to prevent dehydration.

All of the DAN diets reviewed provide very rapid weight loss, but at the same time significantly reduce the intake of nutrients. Therefore, taking vitamin and mineral complexes is a mandatory addition to any menu option.

Anorexic drinking diet

This diet option involves completely abstaining from solid food and switching to liquid foods. You are allowed to drink in large quantities. These can be: low-fat fermented milk products, coffee and tea without sugar, cocoa, low-fat broth, kvass, freshly squeezed vegetable and fruit juices, compotes, decoctions and any other healthy drinks. You just have to give up alcohol, sweet soda, packaged juices, and yoghurts with any additives. In addition to the fact that this option promotes rapid weight loss, it also cleanses the body of waste and toxins.

The optimal month for such a diet is considered. And if in the first week it seems that it is simply unrealistic to withstand 30 days, then everything becomes much easier. The feeling of hunger gradually dulls, and you want to chew less and less. If you also motivate yourself with a possible weight loss of 10 to 15 kg, enjoy your free time (because you don’t have to cook, except for brewing for an hour), then the month will fly by completely unnoticed.

First we count calories, then we eat.

Conscious appetite management begins with food control. You can't manage what you don't control.

Control is counting, measuring and weighing. Measure seven times and cut once.

Before you eat food from the table, you need to measure it. My clients control their food in fat secret.

You wouldn't order food at a restaurant without looking at the prices on the menu. Only people with a big appetite, a large bank account, without a sense of proportion and without a sense of shame can afford to do this.

Usually people are ashamed to talk about how they acquired a big belly and a big fortune, because “behind every big fortune lies a big crime.”

People who have a sense of proportion and a sense of shame know what can be allowed and what cannot be allowed.

If you have 3,000 rubles on your card, then you cannot afford lunch for 4,000 rubles. If you eat more than the amount on your bank card, you will leave the restaurant in disgrace.

You need to know exactly how much calories you can afford for each meal. In order not to go beyond your allowed caloric intake, the dishes that you want to put into your body must first be written down in fat secret.

Knowing the limits and feeling shame will help you suppress the feeling of hunger.

Anorexic diets for legs

This option is designed for those with a pear-shaped body who want to lose most of the weight in their lower body. In a week you can achieve a weight loss of up to 6 kilograms and a reduction of up to 5 centimeters in the volume of your legs and hips.

1. The first day. 2 liters of low-fat kefir or milk.
2. Second day. 200 g of low-fat cottage cheese, two glasses of vegetable or fruit juice.
3. Day three. Only clean drinking water.
4. Day four. Several medium-sized baked potatoes, two glasses of vegetable or fruit juice.
5. Day five. 5-6 green apples.
6. Day six. 200 g of boiled chicken fillet or beef, two glasses of vegetable or fruit juice.
7. Day seven. 1 liter of low-fat kefir or milk.

If you dare, show someone your fat

Good rule.

Many people who have higher than normal body fat like to say, “I'm happy with my body shape.” If a person is satisfied with unhealthy body shapes (unhealthy from the point of view of the standards of the World Health Organization) and he does not care what others say to him, then it is better for him to think about his mental and social health.

If a person has become infected with a virus that is spread by airborne droplets, but is satisfied with his health, he will still be sent to quarantine.

People with an unhealthy percentage of body fat are not dangerous to others, so they deserve to be allowed into public places. But these people are enemies of their health and their life expectancy.

When a person voluntarily harms his health and shortens years of life, this is a hidden form of suicide, which means a mental disorder.

To check your subjective assessment of the shape of your body, try, if you dare, to take a photo of yourself in your underwear, post it on your wall on social networks and write “I am happy/happy with my body”

Then order an advertisement and read what strangers write to you.

This will be the best motivation to make a conscious effort to suppress your appetite.

Anorexic diet “five bites”

The essence of another version of the anorexic diet is that each of the three meals is five bites, forks, spoons - food. Thus, if it is a vegetable or fruit, then you need to bite five times and put it aside until next time. If the first course is five spoons and that’s it, and if the second course is five forks.

The only joy with this diet is the unlimited availability of many drinks: natural fruit and vegetable juices, green or fruit tea without sugar. But homemade yoghurt, low-fat kefir or milk can be consumed no more than 1.5 liters per day.

Most foods are allowed for consumption: lean meat, cereals, pasta, vegetables, fruits and others. Fatty, fried foods and fast food should be excluded.

This diet should last 7 days. During this time you can lose from 3 to 5 kilograms.

Options for daily mono-diets or fasting days for anorexic diets

You are allowed to consume one selected product per day in limited quantities:

• 500 g boiled chicken fillet or turkey;
• 1-1.5 liters of low-fat kefir or milk;
• 1 kg of fresh berries;
• 1-1.5 liters of green or fruit tea without sugar (it is acceptable to add a little honey);
• 1-1.5 liters of freshly squeezed vegetable or fruit juice;
• 1-1.5 kg of fresh vegetables;
• 8-10 green apples;
• 1-1.3 kg of citrus fruits (oranges, grapefruits or tangerines);
• 700-800 g low-fat cottage cheese.

Look at the same topic: Features and benefits of the grapefruit diet

On any day you need to drink 1.5-2 liters of clean drinking water without gas, so that the water-salt balance is maintained and fat breakdown products are promptly removed.

Quitting anorexic diets for quick weight loss

The solution, just like the diets themselves, must be strict, with mandatory compliance with all the rules. A rapid transition to poor nutrition after such drastic restrictions can have a detrimental effect on health, especially on the organs of the digestive system. And the worst thing is that the lost kilograms can come back, and even with a plus. And then it turns out that all efforts were in vain. After completing the diet, you need to gradually include different foods in your diet. The most suitable option would be:

• The first week – we introduce or increase (depending on the diet that was followed) the amount of boiled lean fish, chicken eggs and natural vegetable and fruit juices.
• Second week - we supplement the diet with salads from fresh vegetables with the addition of butter or low-fat sour cream, as well as various cereals;
• Third week - we slowly return to our usual diet, but we try to monitor the number of calories per day, give preference to healthy foods and begin to actively engage in sports.

It is recommended to add no more than 100 kilocalories per day every day. In this case, the daily calorie intake should be 1300-1500 kilocalories.

Also, do not forget about fasting days, once a week or two. They do not allow your metabolism to slow down and help you maintain your current weight and appearance.

Don't confuse hunger with thirst

Athletes of cyclic sports (marathon runners, triathletes, cyclists, skiers) have a rule after training: first you need to drink, then eat, then sleep.

It is in this order, and not vice versa.

When you lose weight, you come to your next meal in a state like an athlete at the finish line. Your body is exhausted. He lacks water, food and sleep.

First you need to drink well. Then eat. And then, if circumstances allow, rest. Rest after eating is sacred. At least 20 minutes.

But first, have a drink.

On an empty stomach, water is absorbed faster.

When the brain receives a signal that everything is in order with water in the body, the body will begin to be saturated with food.

If, after a long break between meals, you start eating right away, and especially dry food, then the brain will wait for more water until it receives it. And with food, water is absorbed more slowly and the signal does not reach the brain for a long time.

A person's normal water consumption is approximately 100 grams per hour. During training, about a liter is consumed per hour.

If you haven't eaten or drunk for 4 hours, you've lost about 400 million of water. In this example, before eating, it is better to drink 400 ml of water, and only then start eating.

Give me something to drink, feed, put me to sleep! But first, get drunk!

Pros and cons of strict diets for anorexics

By chewing your food thoroughly, you help yourself

A measured meal should be spaced out over 20 minutes, because the feeling of fullness does not come immediately.

In times of fast food - fast food, eating slowly is very unusual.

The more processed a food is, the easier it is to absorb quickly.

Two teaspoons of sugar have the same amount of sugar as one raw beetroot. But two teaspoons of sugar can be washed down with two sips of water, and how long will it take you to chew one raw beet?

To stretch a meal over 20 minutes, at least part of the food must be hard enough to chew thoroughly.

The rules for anorexics include advice to chew drinks. For example, do not drink water, but chew it. There is no need to chew water if your meal starts with raw vegetables.

To stretch a meal for 20 minutes, at least part of the food should be quite solid.

Contraindications to the anorexic diet

Insufficient caloric content of the daily diet leads to the fact that the body begins to consume nutrients. Therefore, the anorexic diet is not suitable for everyone who wants to lose weight. It is recommended for people with very heavy weight, and not with a couple of extra pounds. Also, the anorexic diet is contraindicated in the following cases:

• Presence of chronic diseases;
• Pregnancy and lactation in women;
• Problems with the cardiovascular system;
• Presence of diseases of the liver, kidneys, thyroid gland;
• Poor immunity;
• Age restrictions (children and adolescents under 16 years old, elderly people over 65 years old).

According to reviews from anorexics, any diet option, when followed correctly, brings the desired result, but at the same time seriously affects the health and morale of the person losing weight. It’s still worth consulting with experts about the possibility of taking the course for you.

Cosmetic wraps

When following a diet for anorexics, it is recommended to do home wraps. This will help you achieve your goal faster.

When carrying out anti-cellulite wraps, oil infusions prepared from pre-dried rose hips are used.

The cosmetic procedure can be performed in different ways:

• The oil is used as an independent remedy. At the same time, it needs to be rubbed into problem areas. Afterwards the body is covered with film for 2-3 hours;
• Rosehip oil is added to the prepared mixtures in a 1:1 ratio;
• gauze napkins, which are pre-impregnated with rosehip oil, are applied to problem areas of the body. After this, the skin is wrapped with cling film. The average duration of the procedure is 35 minutes.

Rosehip oil can be added to various body care products. They are enriched with mixtures intended for massage.
