Getting rid of excess weight is the cherished dream of many women around the world.Even girls who are fine with their figure always want to stay in shape.To do this, representatives of the beautiful half of humanity exhaust themselves in the gym, follow a drinking regime, and also occasionally adhere to a special diet, including a diet.One of these diets is "Favorite".It got its name because of its high efficiency, because of which many girls fell in love.
GENERAL RULES AND EXPECTED RESULTS FROM THE "FAVORITE" DIET
Due to the fact that such a diet includes drinking and separate food systems, it works in two directions:
- Drinking days are aimed at removing fluid from the body, as well as giving a feeling of lightness;
- A separate diet excludes carbohydrates or fatty foods from the diet.Products from different food categories do not mix in the human stomach, which improves its functioning.
This combination of two methods within one diet seems to give great results, but no.Many experts claim that such a change can negatively affect the functioning of the stomach, which will then be extremely difficult to restore.
Most of the weight lost is water.Due to cleansing the intestines, a little weight will be lost, and only a small part will remain as fat.

WEIGHT LOSS REVIEWS
I felt good throughout the diet, I felt light and cheerful.And the mood was good too, because the volumes were melting before our eyes.
At the end of the diet, I weighed myself.And I found that I lost 5.5 kg.This is a great result for a weekly diet!
Good diet, quite filling, I wasn't hungry... In two weeks I managed to lose 8 kg, of course I was very happy when I saw the result, and I didn't weigh myself during the diet.
The first two days it was quite difficult to get used to the new way of eating (reduced portions, and the exclusion of sweets from the diet, and even without salt was tasteless at first), although I want to say that I did not feel very hungry during that time.As it usually happens.
In a week of eating like this, I lost 5 kilograms, the weight did not return for two weeks.There was a pleasant sense of lightness.
The "favorite" diet will be effective if a person drinks up to two liters of clean water a day.In addition, before embarking on a particular diet, you should consult your doctor about the advisability of the selected weight loss option.
