Buckwheat-apple diet

The unique properties of buckwheat have been known for a long time. It is rich in vitamins and minerals necessary for the stable functioning of the body. Buckwheat goes well with many foods, but to effectively eliminate excess weight, it is recommended to combine it with apples. Apples are also a very valuable product, containing iron, potassium, fruit acids, which stimulate digestive processes and activate metabolism.

These useful products are combined in different ways:

• Method one. A glass of boiled buckwheat is consumed for breakfast and dinner without the use of oil or salt. You are also allowed to eat a kilogram of apples during the day.
• Method two. Add apples, grated on a coarse grater, to the steamed buckwheat. Eat this porridge three times a day. The total weight of apples should not exceed one kilogram, cereals - one glass. Oil, sugar and salt are not used in cooking.
• Method three. Every other day, alternate the consumption of buckwheat porridge and apples. This option is not recommended if there is a lot of mental or physical stress. If you follow the buckwheat-apple diet, you are allowed to drink non-carbonated, high-quality drinking water in unlimited quantities. It is not recommended to adhere to this regime for more than a week in a row. You can choose any variety of apples, but you should avoid greenhouse and imported fruits that may contain various harmful chemical compounds.

Moderate exercise will make your diet more effective. Since this diet system is strict, you should visit a doctor or nutritionist before using it.

Egg diet rules

So, let's not spend a lot of time around the Christmas tree, but let's get straight to the instructions and guides. In order to properly follow the regime and get the desired result (and fans of the egg diet of all types promise exorbitant 3 to 30 kg - it all depends on how long you get hooked on eggs), you need to first learn the rules (by heart!), and then stock up scales, a centimeter and go to the store for approved products (read about this below).

And now the rules :

• When following the egg diet, be sure to drink a lot of clean water - without restrictions, but at least 2 liters per day. We recommend starting every morning with a glass or two of water on an empty stomach. This will wake up the body and start metabolic processes, as well as the gastrointestinal tract;
• tea and coffee can be drunk without restrictions, provided that you exclude any additives containing calories: sugar, milk, cream, syrups, etc.;

Tip: When drinking a cup of coffee, drink the same amount of water. Coffee has a dehydrating effect, and this can cause a false feeling of hunger and lead to a breakdown.

• vegetables allowed by the diet (see the list below), if you do not eat them raw, steam them or cook them in water. The use of meat broths for cooking is not permitted;
• if hunger overtakes you before the next main meal, you can eat cucumbers/tomatoes/carrots (only one type), but you can’t use any dressings from mayonnaise, oil or fatty foods on an egg diet. Also, the snack should not be earlier than 2 hours after the main meal;
• Main meals should remain as prescribed by the diet. You cannot change the “breakfast-lunch-dinner” order and replace some products with others. You can only exclude foods that you don’t like;
• if you break the diet, there is no point in continuing it - you need to start over again in order to restart the necessary chemical processes in the body;
• You can’t pause your diet: if you take a break, start over ;
• Having completed the diet, you need to exit it correctly in order to consolidate the long-awaited result (more on this later);
• During the egg diet for 7 days, 2 weeks or 28 days, it is recommended to take multivitamins ;
• lovers of hamburgers, fried potatoes, schnitzels, fatty cutlets, hot dogs, donuts, as well as ice cream, chocolate shakes, sweet coffee drinks, pastries, cakes and other joys of fast food will have to completely abandon these products;

• sugar should be excluded; instead, use substitutes, which you can read about in our educational articles here and here. Fructose is prohibited !
• Salt can be used on a diet without restrictions. For hypertensive patients, it is better to exclude or greatly limit this seasoning;

Advice: it is better not to overuse salt, as it promotes the accumulation of water ( 1 g of salt attracts 7 g of water ), and this can create unwanted weight gain and threaten demotivation.

• Alcohol is prohibited in any form and in any quantity. Taboo!
• sweet carbonated drinks are prohibited, but it is allowed to drink 1-2 cans of Pepsi or Coca-Cola without calories;
• if the quantity of the product is not indicated, you can eat it (to your heart’s content) until you feel full;
• If you want to repeat the diet, after finishing it, complete the first week program twice, and then move on to the fourth.

Menu

There are different types of diets designed for three days, a week or two and a month. Experts recommend starting with a three-day diet to understand whether this diet is suitable or not.

For a three days

Diets lasting 3 days include citrus-egg diets. Nutritionists have long proven that eating eggs with citrus fruits prolongs the feeling of fullness, and the combination of carotene contained in eggs and grapefruit provides an additional weight loss effect.

Egg-grapefruit

The egg-grapefruit diet suggests strict dietary restrictions. It is recommended to consume no more than three boiled eggs and two fresh grapefruits per day. During the diet you can get rid of 2 extra pounds.

The menu for each meal is the same: one egg, half a grapefruit, a glass of green tea with lemon. If you feel very hungry, you are allowed to eat half a grapefruit at lunch.

The fruit not only promotes rapid weight loss, but also fights cellulite and eliminates swelling.

If eating chicken eggs is not possible, they can be replaced with quail eggs at a ratio of 1:3.

Egg-orange

An egg and an orange can work in tandem. The fruit neutralizes the high cholesterol content found in egg yolk. The chicken egg, in turn, promotes the rapid absorption of retinol (provitamin A), which is part of citrus fruits.

The menu for three days is not rich and consists of two eggs and two medium oranges per meal. There are three of them in total.

The egg-orange diet can be extended for 7 days. In this case, orange should be alternated with grapefruit, and the number of eggs should be reduced to one and a half.

Two eggs and half an orange

This diet, if you feel excellent, can be extended up to 7 days. However, at the same time you should avoid heavy physical activity.

The diet menu is the same for all three meals: two eggs and half an orange should be eaten in the morning, afternoon and evening.

For emergency weight loss, you can change your diet:

Reasons for the effectiveness of the egg-orange diet

Thanks to the right combination of two healthy foods - eggs and oranges - the diet is quite effective and helps to quickly lose weight without harm to the body.

An egg is a natural product that contains a large amount of useful substances. It contains easily digestible protein, as well as amino acids, trace elements, enzymes, vitamins and other valuable components. The obvious advantage of the egg is its low calorie content. This means that it can be consumed during weight loss diets. Despite the low-calorie content, this is a fairly satisfying product that is almost completely absorbed by the body and eliminates the feeling of hunger for a long time.

Orange is a healthy citrus fruit. It also consists of many useful components, including vitamins, fiber, microelements and others. The effect of orange on the human body is similar to that provided by an egg. Thanks to the small amount of calories, the digestive system is not overloaded and works easily. Due to the fibers that swell in the intestines, after eating an orange a person feels full for a long time.

On a note! Scientific research shows that with long-term consumption of oranges, you can lose excess weight and maintain it at an optimal level.

General recommendations for following an egg diet for 2 weeks or more

If you follow the egg diet for longer than 7 days, you can ensure more significant weight loss results by following simple recommendations :

1. When eating on a diet, keep in mind that you cannot limit the intake of calories from food to an amount less than the body needs to maintain its vital functions in a calm state. This amount of calories is called basal metabolic rate. This figure is individual for everyone, but the minimum calorie content can be 1200 kcal per day . If you want to benefit as much as possible from losing weight on the egg diet and harm yourself as little as possible, count calories and try to fit into the minimum.
2. To monitor weight loss and avoid breakdowns, we recommend weighing yourself on an electronic scale, which will show weight changes down to tenths of a kilogram. This serves as additional motivation to lose weight. It is best to weigh yourself on an empty stomach , having completed your morning exercise. Always step on the scale in the same place (don’t move it), in the same clothes (or without it), in the same state (after using the toilet, sorry). When following an egg diet for 2 weeks or more, it is better to weigh yourself once a week in order to avoid disappointment from daily natural weight fluctuations.
3. Since weight loss from proper dieting is expected to be quite significant, it is better to take measurements before starting. The most indicative measurements are waist circumference (WC), chest circumference (CH) and hip circumference (HC). For more detailed results, additionally measure your arms, wrists, neck, buttocks, under the buttocks (breeches) and the area under the chest. In a word, measure all the “convex” parts of the body from which you expect changes in volume.

Advice: while on an egg diet, it is not necessary, but you can take multivitamins: this way you will avoid a deficiency of important microelements and negative consequences for the skin, hair and nails. Give preference to natural-based vitamins: they are safer for the body than synthetic ones.

Well, now that everyone is armed with the necessary knowledge sufficient to achieve their goals and dizzying success, we can move on to the most important thing - the detailed diet and menu of the egg diet. Let's start with its longest variation and gradually move on to the shortest. Good luck!

Practical tips on how to lose weight more effectively

Please adhere to the following guidelines.

1. Drink at least 2 liters of water or green tea per day;
2. If you cannot eat eggs, replace them with low-fat cottage cheese;
3. Don't eat lamb;
4. Add fresh vegetables to the egg diet menu, and not just once a week;
5. After quitting your diet, give up refined sugar.

As a conclusion, we can say: if you are thinking about how to lose weight in a week, the egg diet is what you need.

How to get out of a diet correctly

The end of the diet does not at all imply the onset of a “belly festival”. You need to exit the diet wisely. Within a week, the body has become accustomed to monotonous food, so you need to return to a balanced, varied diet gradually. For several weeks, you should continue to regularly consume eggs, citrus fruits, lean meats, and dairy products. It is advisable not to increase the portions or, at least, do it gradually. The period after leaving the diet is important, because if you do not follow the regime, you risk not only regaining the lost kilograms, but also gaining new ones.

Egg diet for 7 days

According to one famous nutritionist, every woman goes on a diet at least 30 times in her entire life. It turns out that you often don’t get rid of the hated kilograms the first time, or they come back again. And if maintaining weight after achieving weight loss depends entirely on whether we then monitor our diet or not, then the ability to maintain a diet may depend on various factors, among which one is important - duration.

If you, knowing yourself, are sure that you will not last 2 or 4 weeks on an egg diet, try this weekly option first .

Daily breakfast during the week: 1 grapefruit or orange, rye/whole grain toast.

Contraindications

According to nutritionists themselves, the egg-orange diet, designed for 4 weeks, is one of the safest. It helps to quickly lose excess weight without harming the human body. In addition, lost kilograms will not be returned if you consume no more than 2,000 kcal daily and give preference to healthy foods.

However, the egg-orange diet, despite its safety, has some contraindications. Doctors do not recommend following such a diet if you experience:

• allergies to citrus fruits, eggs or other foods that are included in the diet menu;
• gastritis or other diseases of the digestive system that occur against a background of increased acidity;
• heartburn;
• liver diseases (especially viral hepatitis);
• kidney disease, regardless of origin;
• oncological tumors (not only during the development of pathology, but even in the presence of a genetic predisposition to cancer) - this contraindication is due to the fact that products containing large amounts of vitamin C can cause a relapse;
• high blood cholesterol levels;
• diseases of the cardiovascular system and brain.

If there is at least one contraindication from the above list, you will have to abandon the egg-orange diet for 4 weeks. But even if such conditions are not observed, before starting to eat on such a menu, it is recommended to first visit a doctor and undergo all the necessary examinations. Otherwise, instead of the expected benefit, you can harm your health.

Egg diet for 5 days, menu

The shortest version of the egg diet (5 days) will help you lose up to 5 kg in a short time. You need to keep in mind that the larger the number you see on the scale initially, the larger the amount of weight you will lose. If you are already close to the ideal, the body will hold on to “its own” with its teeth, and you will have to be patient.

Another important point: the first few days on the diet, excess fluid disappears, so at the beginning of the journey you will celebrate a kilogram, or even two, of success per day, but then the euphoria will give way to bewilderment, because the pace will slow down. Do not lose strength of spirit and motivation - this is normal, since water cannot leave you endlessly, and fat is burned quite slowly .

Carrot-apple diet

This nutritional system can be classified as a cleansing low-calorie diet. Its principle is quite simple - a person eats low-calorie fruits and vegetables, which, due to their high dietary fiber content and large volume, fill the stomach well. It is not recommended to adhere to the carrot-apple diet for more than ten days, during which strength training and various stresses should be sharply limited.

The carrot-apple diet, designed for three days, is very popular. If you follow it, you need to eat a kilogram of grated fresh apples mixed with 0.5 kilograms of grated fresh carrots every day. This salad can be seasoned with a small amount of lemon juice. The recommended diet is equal portions at two-hour intervals. You should drink about two liters of high-quality water per day. Walking can enhance the effectiveness of the diet.

The carrot-apple diet has a number of contraindications and unwanted side effects, so it is better to consult a doctor before starting to follow it.

• allergies;
• increased cholesterol levels;
• exacerbation of kidney and liver diseases;
• malfunction of the cardiovascular system.

Drinking plenty of fluids will help smooth out the negative consequences. Alkaline mineral water is considered the most beneficial on a diet, as it neutralizes the effects of fruit acids and improves intestinal function. You can also partially replace chicken eggs with quail eggs and introduce vitamins and dietary supplements into the menu.

Compliance with the drinking regime improves intestinal function and helps eliminate toxins from the body

Of course, the main goal of the egg diet is to lose weight, and the amount of weight lost is the main indicator of its effectiveness. Available reviews and results show that you can lose about 3-5 kg ​​using this method.

Perhaps not the most stunning effect, but it is achieved without harm to health, since the daily diet includes vegetables, fruits, meat and plenty of water. These products fully cover the body's needs for vitamins and minerals.

Advantages and disadvantages

There are many advantages to the protein-citrus diet:

• tasty;
• satisfying;
• effective;
• quenching thirst;
• elimination of swelling;
• blood purification;
• improvement of the body;
• overcoming stress and depression;
• no stretch marks on the skin;
• prevention of muscle wasting.

That is, in addition to guaranteed weight loss, while on a special diet there will be a normalization of well-being, restoration of skin beauty and increased activity. However, it is too early to rejoice. In order not to encounter the pitfalls of the food system, you need to understand that it is not completely harmless.

Firstly, oranges contain acids and, if consumed regularly, can negatively affect the mucous membrane of the esophagus. Regular use of eggs also has a bad effect on the health of the digestive system: discomfort in the abdomen, pain, cramps and intestinal disorders (flatulence, bloating, constipation). Sometimes there may be an acetone odor from the mouth and a whitish coating on the tongue.

Important! Often, a protein-citrus diet is accompanied by sleep disturbances, that is, banal insomnia.

Secondly, protein and citrus products are the strongest allergens, and if consumed regularly, intolerance can develop even in those who have not previously noted such a reaction in the body.

Another disadvantage of the system can be considered uniformity. Within a month (this is the longest duration), even their staunch fans may become disgusted with both products.
