The "favorite" diet is a combination of various fasting days. Its principle is as follows:
- Meals must be separate, that is, every day you can eat only one type of food.

- Food is required often, but slowly. For example, you can eat a portion of 200 grams every three hours.

After seven days, the stomach will shrink and you will need less food to fill it.

Vegetable
On this day, you can eat only vegetable friends. And you can eat them absolutely in any form: raw, boiled or baked. You can not fry food, salt it and add various spices during cooking. Women argue that it is better to eat cabbage (broccoli, cauliflower, white cabbage). This vegetable will cleanse the body, fill it with vitamins and rejuvenate. It is forbidden to eat corn or potatoes on this day.
Fruit
On this day, it is better to eat foods that promote fat burning - these are pineapples and grapefruits. Apples, pears, oranges, peaches, apricots, cherries, plums and cherries are also allowed. There are also some limitations. On fruit day, you can't eat grapes and bananas.
Protein
The protein day allows you to support the body, weakened during the diet, "in good shape". Many women neglect this day, believing that eating such a rich meal can lead to weight gain. It is a mistake to think so, because the body will spend more energy processing protein than it absorbs.
You can eat fish, but only boiled and chicken without skin and bones. This useful substance also contains beans, peas, lentils, seafood or egg white. Salt is not recommended. If you want to give it flavor, then you can do it with the help of herbs or lemon juice.
In addition to the main days, there is also a mixed day at the end of the diet. Its essence is that the body must gradually be taught to get used to a normal diet. You can eat vegetables, fruits and protein on this day. Make sure to drink as much clean water as possible.
