The diet of Margarita Koroleva is a popular diet plan for weight loss. Margarita Koroleva is one of the most famous nutritionists in Russia, many eminent people use her services. Margarita helps to achieve the desired result for each of her clients. She has been practicing in the field of aesthetic medicine for over 20 years and was one of the first to create individual comprehensive programs to combat excess weight. The Queen’s clients are such celebrities as N. Baskov, F. Kirkorov, N. Babkina, Valeria and many other Russian pop stars. The fact that diets by the Queen really work is proved by living examples – the most popular people who always look fit and slim. And Margarita herself, despite her age, has an excellent figure. The fact is that her nutrition schemes allow not only to correct the weight, but also to consolidate the result.
Of course, getting an appointment with an eminent nutritionist is almost impossible for an ordinary person. However, Margarita Koroleva offers a nine-day diet for public use that allows you to get rid of extra pounds.
The main idea of the diet of Margarita Koroleva
The nine-day eating plan involves eating only certain foods. Moreover, the dietary scheme is divided into three blocks, each of which consists of three days. Thanks to this, a person does not have an aversion to eating the same foods, and a variety of useful substances, vitamins and trace elements enter the body.
The nutritionist warns everyone who decides to try this nutrition scheme for themselves that it is not intended for global weight loss, but only in order to lose 2-3 kilograms of excess weight. For people with severe obesity, such a diet is not suitable, as it can harm their moral and physical health.
The base of the diet table is rice, chicken and vegetables. Thanks to this set, the body will not suffer from a lack of carbohydrates, proteins and vegetable fiber.
Each of the stages has its own purpose:
Thanks to the “rice days” it is possible to cleanse the body of toxins.
During the “chicken days” the body is enriched with protein and intensive fat burning.
The vegetable stage is designed to reduce the volume of the abdomen, cleanse the intestines and saturate the body with vitamins and useful trace elements.
Rules to be followed
At least 2,5 liters of water should enter the body daily. This applies to pure water without gas. It can be alternated with green tea. Before you start the next meal, you need to drink at least a glass of water (250 ml).
You need to eat food in small portions.
Starving is strictly prohibited.
Breakfast is present in the diet of a person who is losing weight without fail.
After seven o’clock in the evening, it is necessary to refuse to take any food.
The only acceptable heat treatment of food is boiling (steaming).
All products must be consumed without the addition of salt and spices.
During the diet, the use of alcoholic beverages is unacceptable.
Physical activity during this period is allowed, but they should be moderate.
First 3 day cycle on rice
The first three days of the diet involve eating rice. This product is rich in carbohydrates, while it satisfies hunger well and envelops the walls of the stomach and intestines. Sometimes one or two tablespoons of rice is enough to feel full. At the same time, B vitamins enter the body, which in ordinary life a person most often lacks. Thanks to a three-day rice diet, you can strengthen your hair and nails, improve skin condition and increase brain performance.
Golden and white rice, which has long grains, is suitable for the diet. You need to cook rice in advance, that is, on the eve of the day that precedes the start of the diet. To prepare six servings of rice for one day, you need to take 250 g of grain. It is best to soak the rice overnight, and in the morning drain the resulting water, and then start cooking it. If there is no time for pre-soaking, then the grits must be thoroughly washed, then placed in cold water and put the pan on fire. After the rice boils, the gas is reduced and the cereal is brought to readiness. The proportions of water and rice are 2 to 1, the average cooking time is 15 minutes.
During cooking, do not add salt to rice or add any spices to it. The resulting volume of rice is divided into 6 equal portions and eaten throughout the day. The last portion of rice should be consumed no later than seven o’clock in the evening. To diversify your lean and tasteless menu a little, you can eat three teaspoons of honey throughout the day. However, honey should not be added to rice.
Second 3 day chicken cycle
After the three days of the rice diet are over, you can proceed to the meat stage. To do this, over the next three days you need to eat chicken meat. It is an excellent source of protein, which is very easily absorbed by the body. Weight loss is possible due to the low calorie content of chicken and the acceleration of metabolism. In addition, the body along with chicken meat will receive the necessary amino acids for it.
Every day you need to eat 1,2 kg of boiled chicken. We must not forget about water – it should still be drunk in a volume of 2,5 liters per day. If a person replaces water with green tea, then sugar cannot be added to it.
As for the method of cooking chicken, it can not only be boiled, but also steamed. Previously, poultry meat is cleaned of skin and fat. The amount of chicken that is obtained after cooking must be divided into equal parts – you get 5-6 servings – and eat them during the day. During cooking, salt and spices are not added to it. Honey is not used at this stage.
You can find information regarding the fact that on these three days it is allowed to replace the chicken with fish. To do this, they suggest taking 0,8 kg of hake, pollock or cod. It’s over, on which option to stop, each person decides for himself. However, the “official” diet of Margarita Koroleva involves the use of chicken meat.
Third 3-day cycle on vegetables
The last three days of the diet are aimed at cleansing the body of toxins. For this, vegetables are used that are rich in coarse indigestible fiber. It, like a brush, “sweeps” everything superfluous from the intestines and absorbs unnecessary mucus.
Vegetables are allowed to be consumed both cooked and fresh. You can make salads out of them. However, it is forbidden to eat pickles, marinades, spices, sauerkraut. During cooking, vegetables are not salted. To make vegetable days not so bland, you can boil half of the vegetables, and eat the other half raw.
You can eat up to one kilogram of various vegetables per day. On these three days, it is also allowed to diversify your menu with three teaspoons of honey.

Противопоказания
Despite the fact that the dietary scheme of Margarita Koroleva is quite balanced, it can not be used by everyone who wants to lose weight.

How to get out of the diet?
The exit from the diet is the correct and smooth completion of the dietary nutrition scheme. You need to leave the diet carefully so as not to harm your own body, which has already become accustomed to the intake of small amounts of food that have undergone gentle heat treatment in more than a week. In addition, the correct exit from the diet will allow you to consolidate the results achieved and not gain extra pounds.
So, gradually you should start introducing more vegetables into the menu. Meat should be lean – beef, turkey, white fish and rabbit are suitable. You can gradually introduce pork into the menu.

Cons of Margarita Koroleva’s diet

As for the feeling of hunger, which is an integral part of any diet, then, using the scheme of M. Koroleva, a person will not suffer from severe attacks. It is important to eat small meals and drink enough water.
Useful Tips
After completing the diet, you need to continue to eat right.
Well, if it is possible to calculate the calorie content of foods eaten per day. Of course, the number of kilocalories that allows you not to gain excess weight is purely individual for each person. However, the average values for an adult woman are about 2000 kcal, and for a man – 2500-3000 kcal.
In order to maintain the result achieved after following the diet, you need to remove all very salty foods from the menu and generally limit salt intake. Pickled cucumbers and tomatoes, sauerkraut, salted fish, etc. fall under the ban.
It is equally important to refuse various sausages and sausages. Cheese should be consumed in limited quantities, no more than 30-50 g per day.
As a snack, vegetables, fruits, dried fruits, boiled eggs, steam cutlets are perfect.
Physical activity should be at a high level. Do not be lazy to visit gyms and fitness centers. This is the only way to keep fit.
Water should enter the body in a volume of 2,5 liters per day. This is one of the basic principles on which almost any dietary scheme from Margarita Koroleva is built.
As for the repetition of the nine-day diet of Margarita Koroleva, this can be done no earlier than in three weeks. If a person feels that a repeated course will be fraught with certain difficulties for him, then he should not test his body for strength. It is enough to limit yourself to fasting days on kefir, rice, chicken, vegetables or other products.
