How to make a diet plan for losing weight
Your task: not to refuse food for the sake of harmony, but to build a nutrition system that will help the body burn excess fat and build muscle.
The basis of the diet should be: chicken, turkey, lean red meat + fish, avocado, olive oil + eggs and dairy products + fruits, vegetables and greens + whole grains products + natural spices and spices + pure still water.
Under the ban: all types of canned products + carbonated drinks (including water) + alcohol + smoked, salted and fried foods + refined sugar and white flour + caffeine sources (coffee, tea, energy drinks, chocolate).
One serving is:
100-150 g of vegetables (the size of your fist)
150 ml of dairy products
120 grams of meat or fish (approximately with a palm-sized)
1 tsp. vegetable oil
12 grapes
1 apple, banana, orange or pear
1/2 mango or grapefruit
1/4 avocado
How to use a diet plan?
The main thing is diversity! The menu offered here for each week is just examples of how to combine useful products.
You can choose from three lists of your favourite dishes and alternate them at your discretion, or come up with your own options, taking into account the recommended caloric intake of each meal, or look in the section “Day of a flat stomach” and choose something tasty there.
Advice №1
Try to eat as much fresh, untreated vegetables and fruits as possible; the most suitable way of cooking meat, fish and garnish is baking and cooking.
Advice №2
If after 10 days of struggle the stomach is not drawn in, it makes sense to give up all kinds of legumes, cabbage and dried fruits – these products can cause bloating and flatulence, which does not give you rejoice at the first results.
Advice №3
The choice of desserts on a diet is small – fruit-berries and cottage cheese. But if you add to them cinnamon or vanilla, then you easily deceive the body, bored in buns. Cinnamon, by the way, also regulates the level of sugar in the blood, and therefore will not let the hungry fool your head.
Conclusion: Counting calories and cutting calories for weight loss
Counting and cutting calories can be a practical approach to weight loss. There are, however, other approaches to weight loss for those who don’t want to count calories, such as regimens that focus on changes in dietary behaviour rather than calorie counts.
Whether someone chooses to count calories or take a behavioural change approach, McDaniel said it is important to “find ways to not just slash calories but replace them with healthier options that are still emotionally and physically gratifying for that individual.”
Someone interested in losing weight should consider how many calories he or she is eating, how many calories he or she needs and the differences between those numbers, McDaniel said. If someone is eating more calories than necessary, that person will need to change his or her behaviour.
It’s important that behaviour change to a “sustainable pattern that reduces calories,” McDaniel said. She gave the example of a man who eats 300-500 calories of ice cream every night after dinner. “We might change that to putting a frozen banana in the blender and adding a little cocoa powder to make soft serve ‘ice cream’. This cuts the calories in half and he’s still getting the same mouthfeel, pleasure and sweetness.”
