Many women are faced with the need to lose weight as quickly as possible. For example, before a birthday, vacation or other significant event, when you need to be fully prepared. The task is difficult, but achievable. For such cases, there are quick diets. Or, as they are also called, extreme. One of these is “Week”. Let's look at its features in this article.
The “Weekly” diet allows you to realize an almost impossible dream - to get rid of as much as 10 kg of excess weight in a week. True, you need to be prepared for the feeling of hunger to be felt constantly - the menu on the diet is meager.
The authors of the diet also warn that only completely healthy women can adhere to such a diet.
The “Week” diet is strictly prohibited for pregnant and lactating women, as well as women planning motherhood, elderly people and teenagers. Try to organize quick weight loss correctly - mental or physical overload is not recommended during this period. You should not go on the “Week” diet when you are stressed.

"Swing"
The schedule of this weight loss diet consists of alternately increasing and decreasing the daily calorie intake.

This is not a short diet, but 30 days of perseverance and patience.
Desirable food basket:
- lean meat (beef, chicken, turkey);
- cottage cheese 5%, cheese (fat content up to 40%), fermented baked milk;
- eggs;
- vegetables (tomatoes, cucumbers, cabbage);
- fresh fish;
- red and green lentils;
- greens, onions;
- buckwheat;
- black chocolate;
- apples, bananas, grapefruits.
Excluded from the diet:
- fried, smoked, fatty, pickles;
- potato;
- boiled beets and carrots;
- butter and vegetable oil, mayonnaise;
- bakery products;
- sweets.
By creating a weight loss diet schedule for a month, you can painlessly say goodbye to unnecessary kilograms and maintain the results for a long time due to the duration of the process.
The schedule is shown below:
- Days 1, 2, 3 and 4 start at 1700 kilocalories (priority: raw vegetables, eggs and cheese);
- the next 2 days - 1900 kcal (you should consume from 400 to 600 g of boiled meat);
- 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th days - again 1700 kcal (eat fruits, vegetables, fish);
- 11th, 12th days - you need to consume 1900 kcal (the diet includes 0.5 kg of steamed beef and vegetables);

Adviсe
Some, in pursuit of an ideal weight, begin to come up with their own rules, refusing, in their opinion, foods and dishes that are harmful. It is better to turn to ready-made developments by nutritionists, this guarantees results and safety. Compliance with the drinking regime and a certain food intake schedule will allow you to normalize metabolism and qualitatively cleanse the body of toxins and extra pounds, providing the body with additional nutrients.
General tips for all seven-day diets:
- Distribute your meals so that you don’t feel hungry throughout the day;
- if you have chosen a very strict menu, then if you feel hungry, it is better to have a light snack in the form of a low-calorie product (greens or cucumber), otherwise you will subject your body to severe stress, which may further negatively affect your health;
- Contact a qualified nutritionist if you need to lose more than 10 kg in a week.
It is important to understand that sudden weight loss for women can lead to a malfunction of the entire hormonal system and affect reproductive function. A sudden weight loss leads to a deterioration in the condition of the hair and nail plates, the face takes on a tired look, and the breasts sag.
A seven-day diet for quick weight loss should also be chosen according to taste preferences, because it is much easier to survive a whole week on your favorite product, even if there are very strict restrictions in the diet. If you have a sweet tooth, fruit programs are more suitable; try to give up mono-diets. The diet should best suit your lifestyle, specific activities and taste preferences.
Simple diet
A simple diet will help you get rid of bad eating habits and switch only to healthy foods. It gives good results - 3 kg per week, and the result will be sustainable.
Diet rules:
- The last meal is until 18.00.
- Eat 4 times a day. Food should enter the body in small portions, but often. Then digestion and metabolism improves. break between meals – no more than 3.5 hours.
- Eat only when you feel hungry. You can't overeat.
- Half an hour before meals, drink a glass of water.
- You can only cook food by steaming, stewing, or boiling. This will help preserve the beneficial properties of the products. Frying is strictly prohibited.
- Monitor your drinking regime - drink at least 1.5 liters of liquid per day. It should be mostly clean water.

- muesli and apple;

For second courses, stewed, boiled fish or meat, and boiled eggs are allowed. Stewed cabbage and vegetable stew are suitable as a side dish. After 1.5 hours you need a snack.

Reviews and results
The seven-day period showed its best side and, according to those who have already lost weight, it really works. If you follow the basic rules, you can adjust your weight to the desired result within a week. Try not to choose too strict options; as a rule, the weight returns and even increases after leaving the diet. A diet that promises minus 15 kg in 7 days will cause more harm to your health than the aesthetic pleasure of the extra pounds you have left behind. And don't forget to take multivitamin complexes to keep your hair, nails and skin healthy.
Natural rhythm of nutrition by day
If a person does not live every day in accordance with the rhythm of nature, then his strength gradually, imperceptibly fades, interest in life disappears, inertia accumulates, heaviness in the mind, weight in the body. And vice versa, if there is a coincidence, it’s easy to redo more things, you feel cheerful, which has a positive effect on your appearance.
Make it a rule to eat in accordance with the Sun every day:
Eating | Time | Volume of the total daily diet |
Breakfast | from 7 to 8 am | 10-30% |
Dinner | from 12 to 14 | 50% |
Dinner | from 17 to 18 | 20-40% |
This ensures complete digestion of food without the deposition of fats and other toxins. For women, light snacks without buns and cakes are acceptable.
