Diet requirements
The 1400 Calorie Rule allows you to consume any food. But in order to provide the body with the necessary substances, it is necessary to introduce into the diet lean meat and fish, vegetables and herbs, fruit and berry products, milk and sour milk. Minimize the consumption of fast food, convenience foods, baked goods and baked goods, sugar, soda, alcohol, unnatural juices.
It is recommended to eat 5 times a day, planning the menu so that dinner is about 4 hours before lights out. So that it is not problematic to fall asleep with an empty stomach, shortly before a night’s rest, you can drink a little sour milk drink of low fat content.
Do not forget to drink clean water (1,5-2 liters per day). It is much healthier to add natural honey to tea and coffee instead of sugar.
It is recommended to adhere to such a diet for 3-4 months. If you need to lose weight slightly, the diet course can be reduced.
If the weight does not drop for several weeks, increase the calories for 7-10 days to about 1800 energy units, and then reduce it again to 1400 calories. The results will be more noticeable if you do morning exercises, Pilates or yoga.
As you exit the diet, gradually increase your calorie intake and monitor your weight. After losing weight, you need to reach the golden mean – the daily calorie content, at which the weight indicators will be stable.
