How to quickly lose weight by the New Year: for those who just realized. Features of the diet. Diet using cocktails

If you found this page, then you and I are the same. Therefore, throwing away curtsies, let's go to "you", okay?

It doesn't matter if you weigh 50 kilograms, 80 or 120, you (just like me) want to lose weight, by all means, by the New Year. By the way, in my life I have visited all the listed weight categories.

Why do we need to lose weight?

I want it and that's it. Is that all? No, this is not enough.

You and I must know exactly why we need to lose weight.

There can be one or several motives. It is important to realize and remember it at the moment when you want to break loose.

Shine at the New Year's corporate party(at a friends' party, at a romantic dinner with a loved one). Great motive. It will effectively appear in a new dress 1-2-3 sizes smaller, gracefully dance, smoothly shaking her tucked hips and, as if accidentally, run her hand over a flat, retracted tummy. Can you imagine !? How will the jaw of the surrounding men fall off? How will the overdressed "sworn friend" bite her tongue? Imagine it well! This picture will now often have to be revived in your memory, right up to the onset of this very moment.

Fit into your favorite or new-fashionable dress. So so motive. Low efficacy. As practice shows, it is required to try on this very motive dress every day, keep it on a hanger in the most conspicuous place, and after a few days it will be deadly bored, thrown into the closet and stop working as an incentive. The same applies to a set of erotic lingerie, which you may want to impress your loved one on New Year's Eve. Lose weight to look super sexy in it? The idea is good. But after a week of active weight loss you will think: and figs with him, turn off the light, pour him an extra glass of cognac - it will do well! This motive can be used as an addition to some stronger motive, say, the previous or the next.

Argue. Great motive. Especially for some, especially gambling girls or slightly greedy persons. You have to argue in a big way. For some, 10,000 rubles is a sufficient incentive to lose 10 kg, while someone needs a trip to the Canary Islands to force themselves to lose 5 kg. Who to argue with? Most of the successful weight loss controversy is with the husband. Dear, I bet that I will lose 10 kg by the New Year? What?! Is it me - a balabolka ?! So, I'll lose weight - you owe me ... (10,000, money for a course of mesotherapy, a fur coat, a car, a second child ....). Well, let's say about a child - this is too much, I admit.

Another option: to argue with a friend, a work colleague (you can with your mother), add up some money and let them go to the one who wins the test weighing on December 31.

Improve self-esteem. Not a bad motive. You have the opportunity to prove to yourself - I can! I respect myself, because I stopped eating everything that was not nailed down, began to play sports and every day I improve my appearance. Just let's not start losing weight with self-abasement: I am a fat cow, it is disgusting to look at me, it is understandable why men always look the other way ... No. This cannot be a motive. It is what it is. But I can! And I will prove it to MYSELF.

Come on, then you yourself will think about what else can become a motive, or choose from the available ones. It is important that there is a motive. And not only was he, but was strong, conscious and did not even imply the possibility of deviating from the path.

How much can you reset before the New Year?

The earlier we start - we will reset more. In the first week of losing weight, you can decrease in size. This is minus 5 kg. Excess fluid will leave the tissues, the intestines will be cleansed. In the second and subsequent weeks, you should not expect the same amazing plumb lines, a maximum of 3 kg. The second month is usually even more stingy with cons: 1 kg per week will be a decent result.

Therefore, count yourself. If there are two months before the New Year, you can strain and lose 15 kg. If it's only a month, it will actually decrease by one or even two sizes (if the initial weight is more than one hundred). If it's only a week before "X-hour" - we will squeeze out a maximum of 5-6 kg!

By the way, measuring success exclusively in kilograms is not always correct. It is worth combining weighing and measuring with a centimeter tape. It happens that the weight stands still or even grows, and the centimeters at the waist go away.

We painstakingly record all measurement results. We draw a graph and even enjoy the gram / millimeter downward movement.

We weigh ourselves in the morning, after going to the toilet. In the same clothes. The addition of 1-3 kg at the end of the cycle, before the onset of menstruation, we take for granted and even do not pay attention to it. Deal?

Choosing a diet

Well, that's it, we've arrived. The problem of choice is always perplexing. I personally know girls who have wanted to lose weight for 10 years, they even have motivation, but they stopped at the stage of choosing a diet.

Do you want a secret? It doesn't matter which diet you choose, you will still lose weight! Anyone!

It is important: to keep it strictly and not to overdo it (do not refuse the offer, do not starve!).

I've gone through a lot of diets in my life. The most effective way to reduce the size of a banal proper nutrition, with boring counting calories and the balance of protein-fat-carbohydrates. If you have a lot of time before the New Year (six months, say), find an online calorie calculator on the Internet, buy a kitchen scale and count. Effective, safe, but ... not suitable for emergency weight loss.

I will list those diets that actually work in the short term.

Japanese diet. This is an option for those who do not like breakfast, but cannot live without dinner. The food here starts with lunch. The diet is scheduled for 2 weeks. You can repeat two circles with a break of 2-3 days. It is important to eat everything that is written on the menu and in the order in which it is indicated. Let's say you don't want a raw egg ... but you have to eat it. Since it is indicated to me on the third day. Let's say you don't eat half a chicken a day, but you must. Otherwise ... the next day there will be a breakdown. It happens that you want to replace cabbage with carrots. Do not! Cram cabbage into yourself and know - you, hero!

6 petals. Eat. How much will fit. But only one product every day. You only need to hold out for 6 days, that's all! Fish-vegetables-chicken-cereals-cottage cheese-fruits. After finishing six days, we usually eat for 3 days, reducing the portions by half, giving up sweet, flour, fatty, salty, and then go to the second round. The diet is easily tolerated. Important: drink 2 liters of clean water a day, a glass in an hour and a half. This is important on any diet and even without a diet.

Diet of Dr. Ducan. Very suitable for meat lovers and people with healthy kidneys. Buy oat bran, stock up on meat, cottage cheese and offal. Do not stay on the attack stage for more than 3 days, even if it seems that you are fine!

Diet Protasov. And this is for those who cannot live without vegetables. It is easily tolerated, especially the first two weeks. Then you want something hot. Hint: Vegetables with low-fat cottage cheese can be baked!

Herculean, rice or buckwheat diets. Who loves porridge or, conversely, does not use them in ordinary life - your option. The advantage of this diet: it does not lead to hanra, as, say, 6 petals or Japanese. Cons: it is very difficult to stuff porridge into yourself on the fourth day of losing weight….

Enough. You can choose the one you like from this list or any other.

Prepare yourself for the fact that if you "fly" from the diet, you can immediately start over. But it doesn't make sense to change them every day.

If you think that everything ends with choosing a diet, then you are greatly mistaken! This is just the beginning!

Choice of food additives

Not a diet, as they say, is a single one, a person is full ...

It is foolish to give up the achievements of the modern food industry and pharmacology! A huge number of teas, dietary supplements for weight loss, bars, concentrates in bags.

Buy everything. I'm not kidding, if you have money, buy everything. It will not be superfluous. Even Goji berries and green coffee work when combined with your diet! On the principle of "porridge from an ax."

If there is a limited amount of money, let's buy the next one.

Slimming Tea. Absolutely any - they are all laxatives and diuretics.

Vitamins for losing weight. They are also very similar. In the composition, in addition to the vitamins themselves, there is always chromium (relieves cravings for sweets), L-carnitine (helps the breakdown of fats, stimulates physical activity), and then more often ... again laxatives and diuretic components.

Means for reducing appetite. If this remedy is herbal, it will not hurt. I do not recommend medications (such as reduksin, sibutramine), there are very serious side effects from them. For the same reason, we will not buy fat burners from sports nutrition that are fashionable today. Firstly, they really only work with serious cardio loads, and secondly, you need to get used to them carefully and gradually.

We want to lose weight by the New Year, and not die of a heart attack, right?

Choosing types of physical activity

Yes Yes. We don't have time for the gym. No sportswear and no good sneakers. There is no fitness center nearby. And in general, sport is not ours.

That's just, if we really want to quickly lose weight by the New Year, we can't do without increasing activity. It's simple: reducing your calorie intake and increasing your calorie consumption is the only possible scheme for burning fat. And, therefore, we choose something from the proposed below.

Subscription to the fitness center. Perfect option. At least three lessons per week. Group or individual with a coach. It doesn't matter what it will be: strength training, belly dancing, shaping or water aerobics. The main thing is regularly.

Walking. Few people know that even if you just walk every day, you will lose weight. You have to walk quickly, without stopping, so as not to choke, but a slight perspiration appeared, in the "I'm late for the train" mode. Not less than an hour. Every (literally - every) day. After a week, you can alternate: we run for a minute (oh, we are late, we are late!), We walk for five minutes. Stock up on comfortable shoes (any running shoe will do!).

Homework. Let it be just a "plank", or better, a set of simple exercises. What is important is regularity.

Video training. There is the Internet, and in it there is a huge number of training videos. I recommend girls over 100 kg to take a closer look at the Walking with Leslie program, the rest - to the programs of Jillian Michaels and Sean Tee, there are also wonderful domestic online trainers: Marina Korpan, Alexey Merkulov and many others. Classes last from 15 minutes to two hours.

Again, we have chosen, we have started - don’t quit! Don't feel like it today? I'll miss a day, nothing will happen ?! Urgently read the section "Why do we need to lose weight" above!

Sex. Incidentally, a great cardio load, in its active embodiment. There are, of course, some complications. You should be lucky with a partner who can maintain an active phase for at least half an hour (so that the fat burning process at least begins). This should be done, as you know, every day ... no matter how your other half felt like just a simulator and began to evade such a responsibility. After "classes" do not try to eat (drink - only water), otherwise - the whole effect is down the drain.

General rule: we eat one hour before class and after class two hours later, not earlier.

Body care during active weight loss

In order not to look like an emaciated wrinkled creature with gray and flabby skin on New Year's Eve, we must intensify body care. Ideally: we buy a certificate to any beauty salon and go there every day - like going to work. If finances do not allow you (like me) to do this, everything listed below will be fine.

Self-massage. It has been checked repeatedly - any type of self-massage tightens the figure, renews the skin, and, moreover, is an additional physical activity.

Honey massage: painful, boring, expensive (honey is not cheap these days, and the course requires at least a liter), but amazingly effective. The technique is easy to master. On dry skin (abdomen, buttocks, thighs), liquid honey is applied and patted with a pull. You do not need to peel with all your strength, put your palm, pulled, peeled off, applied again. And so for at least 10 minutes for each site. Pat until the honey turns into a white rolling substance. We wash it off with warm water, smear it with any cream (moisturizing, anti-cellulite) and praise ourselves.

Cupping massage. It also hurts out of habit, but it's worth it. We warm two silicone jars in hot water, apply any massage oil to the body, "suck" the jars to the skin and drive them in circular motions until the area becomes crimson. If cans often "peel off", it means that your fats and cellulite have long demanded a massage! Don't back down, stick it again! After the procedure, you do not need to wash off the oil, if there is something left, wipe it off with a paper towel and get dressed.

Manual or electric massager. A mitten with spikes and a needle-shaped wooden roller on the handle will do. They all work. The myth of their uselessness is spread by those who, after rubbing them over the stomach a couple of times, noted: there is no effect. Of course not! We've been saving up fats for years, but we dream of getting rid of them in two minutes? The results from daily self-massage can be seen no earlier than two months later. But they will definitely be. After water procedures, we apply massage cream and stroke, stroke, stroke ourselves in circular motions with pressure. 10 minutes is a must, preferably 20.

Wraps. Perhaps it was the daily wraps that saved me from a sagging abdomen, sagging skin of the thighs and sagging triceps, when after the third birth I lost 60 kg. Performing them at home is no more difficult than brushing your teeth, the main thing is to learn. Every day (morning or evening) we take a shower, rub the problem areas with a washcloth and soap until pink. Apply the mixture for wrapping, wrap in foil. On top of it we put on warm tight leggings (slimming trousers with a sauna effect - they will do) and walk (sit, lie) for at least 2 hours. Do not go in for sports in body wrap! Separately, I will say about the compositions for wraps. Absolutely any cream or gel for weight loss (including the cheapest ones) is suitable, you can also practice chocolate wraps or algae wraps. The composition of the product does not matter (all of them are effective), a positive result is guaranteed only by the regularity of the procedures.

Baths. That's really a thrill. No effort, and the result will be. The effect of taking a bath is several times weaker than that of massage and body wraps. Nevertheless, baths with sea salt, baths with soda, milk baths (with the addition of milk), oat baths (with oatmeal) can improve the condition of our skin. The water temperature should be no higher than 39 degrees, the taking time should be at least 10 minutes.

Yes! We take care of the face separately: cleansing, nutrition, moisturizing. Purchased or homemade cosmetics from you - it doesn't matter. The main thing is not to forget to use it.

We clearly plan our procedure for every day and "bleed from the nose" we carry out this plan. If we ate, of course, we actually decided to lose weight by the New Year and at the same time we want to look decent.

Caution: remember about the secret conspiracy of others against your weight loss!

You know, as soon as you and I found motivation, chose a diet, started playing sports, bought a terribly effective tea, started daily massage and body wraps - everyone around will actively oppose us. It is a fact.

Temptations and temptations await us literally at every step.

On the street, a hamburger from a McDonald's advertising poster constantly crawls into the eyes, and information is introduced into the brain from the TV that mayonnaise is an irreplaceable thing in the house.

The most beloved husband in the evening will bring a bottle of wine and a box of chocolates (well, or beer with mackerel) and offer to arrange a "romantic".

Mom to your arrival will fry delicious lush pancakes with sour cream.

At work, someone will definitely have a birthday with a bunch of high-calorie salads, cervelat and cheese, and maybe caviar - carefully spread out right in front of your nose.

The neighbor will continuously bake pies and fry potatoes on cracklings, the smells of which you will inhale regularly.

The best friend will fly to you from afar for a minute (like Carloson), and you have no cake ?!

Know that all these people are in cahoots. They test you for strength, they do all this exclusively to train your willpower.

Even your wonderful baby, an innocent child, hands you a candy, smiles and says: here, mom, this is for you. He, too - at the same time with everyone!

Will you stand? Can you handle it?

They will constantly whisper sympathetically to you: “Well, eat, you haven't eaten anything at all, you can't do that!” in pleasure! "," You are not fat at all, why do you need to lose weight? "

Yes Yes Yes. I strongly agree with everyone, but…. I really want to lose weight by the New Year, and all this ... to the light bulb.

Save this page as a bookmark and re-read it whenever the temptation to yield is stronger than you. I'll do exactly the same!

Lose weight without dieting, without sports and without much effort. Can!

If this section is read by a man or a woman with a masculine mindset, I will, of course, be considered abnormal. I also didn’t really believe in different weight loss conspiracies before. I’ll tell you a secret: everything that I’ll tell you about now really works and contributes to weight loss.

These are small rituals to help you lose weight.

1. We are on a diet. We take a piece of paper and write on it in large letters "The best diet." We constantly sit only on it: we put it on an armchair when we watch TV, on a stool in the kitchen, in an office - on a chair, in a car - on a seat, we carry it in a bag and put it before we sit down in public transport, on a bench in a park and we sit, sit, sit, on the best diet.

2. We lose excess weight and centimeters in the waist. Take the leaf again and cut it into small pieces. On each one we write something like “100 grams of fat from the belly” or “1 cm from my waist”. Constantly, wherever you are and wherever you go, on the way - lose these leaves. Throw out the trash can in the store, forget it on the park bench, leave it in the trash bin at work, etc. If you run out of leaves, write new ones. And so we are constantly losing, losing, losing and throwing away.

3. Letting go of your excess weight. Take a small, clean piece of paper again. We write on it, for example, "my extra 5 kg." Then we fold it, stuff it into a balloon, go to the place where this balloon will be inflated with helium for us. Then everything is simple: we let go of the ball on the street and shout after it: "Goodbye, my extra pounds!".

4. We exchange excess weight for the right things. We write an ad (again on a piece of paper and again by hand): “I will give away 10 kilograms of excess weight free of charge. It is possible to exchange for a size 5 chest, a 65 cm waist or strong beautiful centimeter nails. " The text of the announcement can be changed at your own discretion; of course, you do not need to write contacts. We post these ads anywhere, even in the forest in the trees. With a sense of accomplishment, we return home and go on "the best diet."

It all sounds very funny, but I repeat - it works!

There is another effective way to lose weight: throw out everything unnecessary from the house. You may not believe me, but as soon as you go through all the closets, mezzanines, pantries and throw out ALL that is superfluous, it is much easier to lose weight. Check it out, it won't get any worse - for sure!

Okay, stop poking holes in the monitor. Let's act! Today. As a last resort - tomorrow.

Personally, I have already chosen a diet, bought dietary supplements and creams, bought a subscription to a fitness club, closed my ears from other people's advice and launched my balloon into the sky. So that it doesn't work out like in a joke.

- I want to lose weight again for the New Year.

- What, already lost weight?

- No, I already wanted to!

Almost every woman approaches the meeting of the New Year thoroughly. She carefully chooses the outfit and hairstyle, and also fights with extra pounds. It should be noted that there is a special New Year's diet , which allows you to get in shape in a short period of time. In addition, we will get acquainted with the nuances of food at the festive table.

How to lose weight for the New Year

Elena Malysheva helps both men and women to solve a variety of health problems, and weight loss does not remain on the sidelines. She has developed several recommendations to help you lose those hated pounds before the holidays:

1. Don't let yourself go hungry. Naturally, from a small amount of food, the body begins to lose weight, but this does not mean that the weight will remain in the same position after returning to the previous diet.
2. Fractional meals at the same hours are encouraged. There should be at least 6 meals per day, one serving is equivalent to 200 grams.
3. Keep a calorie count. For those who do not play sports, the daily allowance should be 1200 kcal.
4. Eat food slowly in a leisurely environment, and have fun.
5. Proper nutrition has not harmed anyone yet, so it can be observed at all times. If not, then rationally leave the diet and do not pounce on previously prohibited foods.
6. Half an hour before meals, drink 200 ml of water, and a day you need to drink at least 2 liters.
7. Choose lighter foods instead of high-calorie meals. Eat lean meats and lean fish.
8. The effectiveness of weight loss is based on a salt-free menu. It is this component that retains fluid in the body.
9. Exercise or walk for at least 30 minutes daily.

If you follow these tricks, then the extra pounds will not return, Malysheva claims, and her diet for the new year allows her to look brilliant. In addition, the dietary menu is not at all complicated and is represented by affordable products. Let's take a look at an example diet:

• Breakfast - oatmeal with apple slices, 250 g of low-fat yogurt, or yogurt.
• Second breakfast - a couple of apples or tangerines.
• Lunch - boiled chicken, or fish or chicken eggs, as well as green vegetables.
• Afternoon snack - the products are the same as for the second breakfast.
• Dinner - vegetable salad, a little boiled chicken protein, 250 ml of kefir.

The most correct New Year's diet

If there is very little time left before the onset of the main holiday, then a 10-day diet before the new year will help. Eat without added salt and cut out sugar, sweet baked goods, and breads. and implies daily nutrition with a certain set of foods. It is broken down into several small portions and consumed throughout the day.

How to eat at the festive table

If the diet before the new year has captured a festive feast, then you should adhere to the principles of nutrition. It is clear that the diet will be interrupted a little, but proper preparation of the body for the feast will not allow you to gain extra pounds. Let's take a closer look at the nuances of nutrition:

1. Do not starve before eating at night. Better eat half of the portion for dinner.
2. Choose one hot dish and a couple of salads for yourself.
3. Don't eat bread or sandwiches.
4. Choose white or red dry wine from alcoholic drinks.
5. Take part in outdoor games or competitions, don't forget about dancing.
6. Eat vegetable salads and cuts, fish and chicken.
7. Avoid cakes and other sweets that are harmful to your figure.

The first step to success is thinking about how to prevent overeating. An extensive tasty menu and pleasant surroundings often lead to an abundant absorption of food. Therefore, experts have developed several recommendations so as not to overeat:

1. Drink 200 ml of water about 20 minutes before a meal.
2. Instead of water, you can eat 2 tablespoons half an hour before the celebration. bran.
3. Before the gala dinner, do not starve, eat as usual, and do not skip breakfast and lunch.
4. Don't focus on the holiday menu, but rather dance or chat with a friend.
5. Eat small meals and choose protein foods.

The New Year's diet is an effective program for burning excess weight. Do not wait to the last and start your diet a month or a week before the celebration. And at the New Year's table, do not pounce on fatty foods.

On the Internet, you can find diets with tempting headlines "Minus seven kilograms in a week" or "How to lose 10 kg in a month." We are offered to sit on an egg, pineapple, chocolate or protein diet, refuse dinners, switch to a raw food diet or stop eating after 12:00, 14:00, 15:00 - you can set any numbers. There are so many diets and food systems that you can get confused in them - among them there is even a beer, pome and candy weight loss system. But in fact, it is impossible to lose one kilogram a day - this is what experts say.

It's simple - in the early days on a very strict diet, you can actually lose one kilogram and even more - due to cleansing the intestines, dehydration and loss of muscle mass. But then the process of losing weight is inhibited and may even stop due to a slowdown in metabolism. The fact is that when the diet is drastically reduced, the body perceives this as a threat and, thinking that these are difficult times, slows down metabolism to a minimum and does not want to use up reserves. It turns out that strict restrictions on food do not give any result, and those kilograms that went away at the very beginning quickly return, and in excess, one has only to return to the previous diet. In fact, it is quite realistic and natural to lose weight by 700-1000 g per week, everything else leads to exhaustion and disease.

Why fast weight loss is dangerous

Of course, if a woman is going to lose weight by the New Year at any cost, then she does not care much about what will happen next, because any means are good to achieve the cherished goal. However, any rigid food system, such as a mono diet, liquid diet, fast diet with a poor diet, detox diet, or fasting leads to a deficiency of vitamins, minerals and trace elements. A woman who sits on such a diet develops weakness, decreases her working capacity, worsens memory and concentration. But this is not the worst thing yet. Endocrinologist Elena Odintsova does not recommend experimenting on her body and explains why you should not get carried away with radical weight loss systems.

Elena Odintsova

Endocrinologist

“I perfectly understand a woman’s desire to lose weight by the New Year, transform, fit into the cherished dress and cause admiration of relatives, friends and acquaintances. But sometimes you have to pay a high price for this, because radical weight loss weakens the body, as a result, immunity falls, chronic diseases become aggravated and many new diseases appear. I see girls and women whose menstrual cycle is disturbed during the diet, and I have to make a lot of efforts to restore normal hormonal levels. In addition, due to a lack of nutrients, the body "eats" itself, as a result of which teeth are destroyed, the condition of the skin, hair and nails deteriorates. Yes, you can, if you wish, lose weight before the New Year in a month, but at the same time look tired, sick and haggard. In such a state, it is usually impossible to have fun and enjoy life. "

Side effects of dieting include kidney and liver problems, abnormal blood pressure, constipation, stone formation in the bladder and gallbladder, gastritis and heart problems.

Losing weight before the New Year: fractional nutrition

Do not set hard-to-reach goals for yourself and get ready to part with 4-5 kg ​​of weight - it will not be muscle, but fat. Believe me, 5 kg is already not bad, and the changes will be noticeable not only at the waist, besides, you will preserve your beauty and avoid the pre-New Year's hungry depression.

The best way to lose weight without experiencing painful bouts of hunger is fractional meals. Eat every 3 hours with a serving fits in a 250 ml cup. But this does not mean that you can only eat chocolate and cakes, carefully tamping them into the dishes. Choose only healthy foods - vegetables, mushrooms, fruits, cereals, legumes, cottage cheese, yogurt, meat, fish and eggs.

Refrain from baked goods and sweets, season salads with olive oil, not mayonnaise, limit the use of nuts, sour cream, pork, dried fruits, honey and other fatty ones, etc. The advantage of this eating system is constant satiety and small portions of food, which will help to reduce the volume of the stomach, as a result of which you will eat less food in the future.

How to quickly lose weight for the New Year with calorie counting

Nowadays, there are many different mobile applications with calorie calculators, so counting calories has long ceased to be a tedious task. If you stick to a calorie diet of 1200-1500 calories and eat a balanced diet, you will easily part with 5 kg without hungry fainting. And to increase the amount of food and eat from the heart, prepare meals from low-calorie foods. The lowest calorie meats are beef, veal, turkey, partridge, chicken, brains, liver and kidneys of cattle. From fish, give preference to trout, catfish, bream, cod, carp, pike perch, pike and seafood - their calorie content does not exceed 100 kcal per 100 g. Eat low-fat cottage cheese, season salads with kefir, and eat cheese and eggs in moderation, like nuts with honey. There are a lot of calories in them, but no satiety! For the duration of the diet, you can completely abandon butter, sugar and bread, but low-calorie vegetables, fruits and mushrooms must be contained in the diet. Remember that avocados, bananas, grapes and dried fruits, despite their benefits, are very high in calories, so it is better to limit them slightly. For sweets, make desserts from low-fat cottage cheese with berries and fruits, or healthy meringues made from whipped proteins, sweetened with natural stevia sugar substitutes.

Some tips for losing weight

On any diet, be sure to take a tablespoon of unrefined vegetable oil on an empty stomach and then do not eat for 20 minutes. Oil is necessary to maintain hormonal levels, to nourish the skin, hair and nails, while the calories from the oil are not taken into account in the total calorie content of the diet. Try to drink 1.5-2 liters of water so that toxins are actively removed from the blood: this is the key to good health on any diet.

Pay attention to the so-called zero-calorie foods - much more calories are spent on their digestion than they contain - these are berries, citrus fruits, greens, cabbage, celery and non-starchy vegetables.

An indispensable product on the diet is Japanese shirataki noodles, 100 g of which contains only 9 calories. It is white and transparent, but don't confuse it with funchose, which is made from bean or rice flour. Spaghetti shirataki, which is made from the tubers of the konjac plant, contain useful plant fiber, normalize blood glucose levels and the functioning of the gastrointestinal tract.

How to cheat the body on a diet?

There are many different tricks - drinking a glass of water before a meal, putting food in a small cup to create the illusion of an overflowing plate, eating very slowly, chewing food thoroughly - in this case, satiety will come much faster. Don't combine breakfast, lunch and dinner with watching a video or reading a book - have fun with your food and enjoy every bite! Gourmet table setting helps a lot, even if you are going to eat a small serving of cabbage salad. If you eat cabbage not in a hurry in front of a computer monitor, swallowing unchewed pieces, but on expensive porcelain with starch napkins and cupronickel cutlery, you will eat up less food, because aesthetic pleasure also plays a role in the feeling of satiety.

The dream of most women in the world is to lose weight by the New Year. From the advice offered by "experts" literally eyes run up. And if a separate piece of advice helps one woman to lose weight, then another, following the recommendations, can gain weight. Even on a tough mono diet. What's the matter? Let's figure it out. After all, the New Year is approaching.

Why are we losing weight. Our goals

Just to lose a couple of "extra" pounds for the fair sex is not a goal, but a means. In an effort to lose weight, ladies want:

• Maintain or enhance attractiveness in the eyes of men;
• Improve the body;
• Carry out body rejuvenation;
• Increase mobility and lifestyle changes;
• Raise vitality;
• Raise self-esteem;
• Improve mood and communication with others.

As a rule, women for weight loss set several goals and achieve them consistently. Men lose weight for other reasons:

• To fit in the workplace;
• To create a new or adjust the existing image;
• For the purpose of recovery.

It is worth noting that although maintaining physical fitness and good health is becoming fashionable, the vast majority of men do not seek to literally lose weight to the last.

The role of New Years in weight loss is controversial. Speaking from one side as a starting point, they serve as both the “last outlet”, and a test for the ability to control oneself, and the finishing stage of a kind of quest. Especially for ladies trying to bring their body shapes closer to the ideal of beauty. The process becomes especially important in December, when you really want to lose weight by the New Year.

How to choose a diet for sure

The selection algorithm is reduced to a sequential answer to the questions:

1. What are the goals of the diet?
2. What are the tasks of losing weight for the New Year?
3. How much time is left until the New Year holidays?
4. How much weight should you lose?

Let's go in order.

Diet goals. Roughly speaking, what should follow the weight loss. Purely psychological goals, such as improving self-esteem, require diets that are combined with exercise. To increase the attractiveness, diets with a varied menu are needed. For recovery, a combination of diets and fasting days may be required. Physical activity (fitness, pilates) is optional, but desirable. Changing the image, increasing mobility, changing lifestyle requires a change in the approach to nutrition and a comprehensive revision of the daily routine.

Fast weight loss forces you to turn to mono diets or separate meals. Smooth weight loss allows you to eat most products, but at different times and in small portions.

Why is it important to lose weight by the New Year?

Indeed, why do you need to lose weight just for the New Year? Are you planning a new stage in your life without monotonous work, but with an exciting job? Or is it important to prove to yourself the ability to control your own body? Or maybe the "eternal companions" of excess weight, illness, literally reached the brain and bones, but there is no desire to endure? And the New Year is a good occasion for the implementation of our ideas.

The answers to these and other questions are not at all a whim. This is the motivation to achieve health - and maintain it for many years. The reason "not to break" at the New Year's feast is in the desire to try everything. After all, after a diet, it is so important to maintain the achieved figure.

Time left.

This is one of the important criteria for choosing a diet, associated loads and a New Year's table menu. Losing 4 - 5 kg in a couple of days is a task on the brink of an achievable and frankly harmful to health. And forever part with a dozen kilograms in about a month can be comfortably and safely for health.

There is a rule: the slower a person loses weight, the less noticeable the process is for the body and the longer the newly acquired weight remains. A similar principle applies to physical activity.

How much should you reset?

The answer is one of the key questions for healthy weight loss. Different ways to lose weight provide different options. The basic principles of body care and medicine are: it is optimal to lose up to 15 kg per month, or about 500 grams per day.

It is highly undesirable to limit the diet for more than 3 weeks: the body's consumption of its own tissues can become irreversible. Depending on the severity and nature of the restrictions, this can occur from 4 - 6 weeks to 10 - 12. To lose weight by the New Year holidays, we start dietary restrictions from the beginning of December.

Too slow weight loss (250 grams per day or less) makes losing weight nervous. The process seems to be on the verge of statistical error.

Minus 5 kg two weeks before the New Year

The task is doable and has a positive effect on the body. You can lose 5 kg by using the following measure:

• rejuvenates important organs and systems;
• allows you to increase mobility;
• improves health.

It is important to stick to a normal weight while doing this. The World Health Organization has developed a simple formula for calculating the optimal body weight for an adult. It is necessary to measure the height in centimeters and subtract 100 from the received one. The result will be the optimal weight. Seasonal fluctuations in weight are allowed within 10% of the received number. The change is triggered by a natural reaction to the weather.

Scientists from the Royal College (London) have proven that from the fall cold snap, the body stores subcutaneous fat and moisture. A biological measure allows you to better endure near-zero temperatures in autumn and winter frosts, and to maintain good health longer. To lose 5 kg 2 weeks before the New Year, you need:

• refuse fried foods and muffins;
• exclude fatty sauces (mayonnaise, etc.) from the diet;
• refuse meals 2.5 hours before bedtime;
• limit salt intake to 2 grams per day, sugar to 10 grams;
• increase the proportion of vegetables in the menu;
• switch to five meals a day;
• reduce serving size.

So the body will rebuild and, thanks to the constant feeling of satiety, will cease to require an extraordinary "dose" of food. The result, smooth weight loss, will not keep you waiting long.

An extremely useful measure for losing excess weight, body shaping and recovery is a fasting day. Optimally, once a week. Have time to spend at least 3 fasting days before the New Year.

Ideally, the fasting day is spent exclusively on the water. But it makes sense to withstand such strict restrictions in the summer, when there are no costs for heating the body, and little food is required. In winter, a fasting day is a short version of a mono-diet. Can be used:

• Kefir. Contrary to popular belief, the optimal fat content is 2.5%. the daily dose of the drink is 1 liter. The method will help get rid of 2 - 3 kg and establish the correct ratio of microbes in the intestines.
• Varenaya beets. Beetroot salad with the addition of onions, garlic, salt and a tablespoon of vegetable oil is allowed. Gently relieves 2 - 4 kg of weight, cleanses the intestines. Due to the laxative effect of beets, it is better to combine a fasting day with a root crop with a weekend.
• Milk. One of the versatile products, but its use for weight loss is controversial. Normally, the production of enzymes that break down casein (milk protein) in children stops by the 4th year of life. In adults, milk, even without showing a laxative effect, can cause fermentation in the intestines.
• Dryefruits, vegetables help to lose 1 - 1.5 kg, depending on the initial data. It should be taken into account: the body's need for fluid increases.
• Fresh apples, pears. An average person weighing about 70 kg eats about 700 grams of fruit per fasting day. "Run away" about 2 - 2.5 kg, improves digestion and bowel function.
• Meat. The average serving per meal is about 70 grams, or an average of one steamed cutlet. In the morning and evening, instead of meat, drink a glass of vegetable juice.
• Chocolate. The delicacy is used as an addition to the main diet during the day. For breakfast, a protein shake is prepared: mix a tablespoon of cottage cheese, one banana and ½ cup of milk with a blender. For the second breakfast - a glass of green tea and ¼ a bar of chocolate. Lunch consists of a tomato, a glass of tea and half a bar of chocolate. For an afternoon snack, you need to finish it. Dinner includes a glass of vegetable juice and a sandwich.

It should be noted: dietary restrictions alone will not lead to sustained weight loss.

What will help you lose weight, besides dietary restrictions

The basis for sustainable weight loss is physical activity, from walking in the morning and evening to regular exercise. If there is no time for classes in the hall under the guidance of an experienced instructor, there is another way out.

Complexes of exercises with breathing exercises, cardio training systems, aerobics, and jogging will help. The basic rules are simple: during classes, an untrained person's heart rate should rise by no more than 30% of the norm. Duration of classes is from 25 minutes in the first 2 months and up to an hour. This duration of training should be approached smoothly, with a gradual increase in loads. Fresh air and proper nutrition are essential for weight loss.

Other weight-loss measures include not eating after 6 pm, quitting bad habits, and working at night.

Experts say: after completing diets in 90% of cases, after 3 months, excess weight returns. Experts see the reasons for the phenomenon in maintaining the wrong diet and returning to bad eating habits. Recommendations come down to:

• exclusion from the permanent menu of pasta and snacks;
• eating no earlier than an hour of waking up;
• the interval between dinner and sleep is at least 2 hours;
• the inclusion of vegetables and fruits in the menu in an amount equal to a portion of the side dish.

Following these simple tips will help you achieve your optimal weight and maintain your ideal figure for years to come. And you do not have to look for ways to lose weight for the New Year - you will always be ready for it and for more important events in life.
