What will not go to losing weight in the name of the desired harmony! It is sacrificial to refuse food, eat only watermelons for a week, meticulously measure portions and count calories. This rating is about the strangest diets that were once popular among those who want to lose weight.
Cabbage Soup Recipe
Surely this diet helped a lot in losing weight. And it’s not at all about the exceptional properties of this vegetable. The whole diet is scheduled every day in this way: cabbage soup plus vegetables or fruits, and at the end protein and complex carbohydrates are added in the form of cereals. In principle, if you remove the main course, the diet is so limited that you can lose weight without it. And yes, the recipe for the soup itself could be called cabbage, in addition to it, there are 9 ingredients, including rice!
Vatoedstvo
History is silent about who came up with such a wonderful idea: before eating, eat vata. The diet is relatively young, so the author, we hope, is still alive and well, despite his stomach full of fibers. Which, in theory, should want to eat less and be content with the little that the owner swallowed after cotton wool.
Sleep for breakfast, sleep for lunch and dinner
Don’t know what to eat to lose weight? Sleep! The trendsetter for “sleep your dinner” Elvis Presley, as legend has it, took sleeping pills to sleep longer, and therefore eat less. It didn’t help Elvis himself, but he had a lot of followers.
However, there is some truth in this approach. In order to consistently lose weight, it is very important to get at least 8-9 hours of sleep.
Enjoy the taste – no more
A close anorexic approach: the food must be chewed thoroughly and then spit out. Thus, all the necessary nutrients will enter the body, and the processed recyclable materials will save your stomach from unnecessary work. Horace Fletcher, the founder of this diet opus, was right about only one thing: chopping good food is very healthy. But depriving yourself of fiber and not loading internal organs is fraught.
Aromadiet
This strange diet is designed to blunt your appetite before the main meal. It’s simple: you need to heat the food and inhale its aromas. A list of recipes for inhalation is attached. The main thing, says the founder of the diet, is to suppress emotional hunger, so to speak, the impulse to eat it here and now. If it did not work out, you should sniff directly the food that you are going to eat before using it.
Borgia nuts
Nothing interesting really comes down behind this exotic name. A certain medieval count-nutritionist suddenly decided that he needed to eat the kernels of a walnut, served on a gold tray by a servant. The golden tray seems to be an important part of this approach to nutrition, because the diet did not take root. Alas, alas.
Wine by the river
Only five days of the diet. The basis of food is wine, which should definitely end your day. If you do not lose weight, you will at least have fun. The diet is a limited set of products, with which, without wine, one will lose weight well, only sadly. But alcoholism, especially female alcoholism, is a rapidly sticking phenomenon and is practically incurable. Only a cigarette diet is worse! (and she also exists)
Movement is life!
Life and a slim body! American traveler William Buckland urged those who lose weight to eat everything that moves – from insects to large animals. Of course, after catching and preparing it all beforehand. It is not known whether the author of the diet lost weight, but all of these proponents of protein foods endorse the American’s enthusiasm. The body takes a lot of energy to process protein, the very kilocalories that it uses. It doesn’t matter if it’s chicken fillet or bear fillet, there is no secret.
Juggler
“Sports for weaklings!” – so the followers of such a meal probably think. You can hardly call it a diet. Sit down, push up, run a few kilometers? No, you haven’t. Why, if you can just juggle what you are going to eat before eating. Surely the diet is calculated on the fact that the food will be consumed just such foods that can be thrown.
Fork diet
This diet first won the hearts of those losing weight with its subcontrast: there is certainly something that is pricked onto a fork and prepared without the aid of a knife. The authors probably thought that this way they would turn away lovers of sandwiches and beans, for example. In fact, this approach has deprived people of dairy products, fresh fruits and vegetables, as well as nuts and liquid meals.
Many eccentrics have become famous, trying to impose their approach and prove that with some miracle product you can easily turn your body into a standard of beauty and health. But, as always, common sense won out: nevertheless, the majority lose weight, choosing the right diet, a balanced diet and sports.
