Many people believe that the most effective diet is to follow the "don't eat" principle. It turns out that this is not so - you can eat and lose weight at the same time. Some foods will not only not add to you kilograms, but also help you lose weight.
Instructions
Step 1
So let's start with drinks.
The number one product is water. Lack of water in the body leads to a slowdown in metabolism, a drop in glucose levels, a deterioration in well-being, weakness and dizziness. Water also helps to flush out toxins and waste products. Therefore, it is important to consume enough water during the diet.
Drink more green tea. Thus, you will not only help reduce the risk of cardiovascular and cancer diseases, but also speed up your metabolism. It has been estimated that by drinking 5 cups of green tea a day, you can lose up to 80 kcal.
Include in the diet low-fat dairy products - yogurt without additives, kefir 0% fat and yogurt (not milk). These foods provide our body with plenty of calcium, which helps break down fats.
Step 2
Negative Calorie Vegetables and Fruits:
- artichokes;
- Swiss chard;
- cauliflower;
- green bell pepper;
- broccoli;
- radish;
- endive (a type of chicory);
- green pea;
- black radish;
- Savoy cabbage;
- Red beetroot;
- cucumbers;
- carrot;
- celery;
- asparagus;
- kohlrabi;
- cabbage and watercress;
- zucchini;
- dandelions.
These foods consume more calories to digest than they contain.
Among the fruits, we especially highlight the grapefruit. It is believed that eating half a grapefruit or 150 grams of its juice before lunch allows you to reduce weight up to 2 kg per week in a week. Grapefruit lowers insulin levels, which reduces your need for snacks and reduces your appetite.
Step 3
Protein is an essential foundation for the formation of muscle tissue, and the better your muscle mass is, the more fat you burn. In addition, more calories are spent for the absorption of proteins than for carbohydrates and fats. Therefore, arrange for yourself once a week protein fasting days. The best sources of protein are chicken (namely, breast), egg whites, fish, turkey.
Finally, the list of slimming products includes spices and herbs. These are primarily cinnamon, ginger and chicory. So, the use of cinnamon allows you to replace sugar. Hot spices make the body sweat, increase the heart rate, and also improve metabolism.
