Fast weight loss diet
If you just need to lose a few extra pounds, fast weight loss diets can help you. Fast diets are a low-calorie diet that is low in protein, minerals and fiber. Note: In general, weight loss tends to come back, especially if you don't change your lifestyle.
How fast weight loss diets work
All tissues and organs of our body have their own weight - bones, internal organs, muscles, fat, blood, water, intestinal contents. Thus, what you see on the scale is the sum of all of the above. Weight loss and fat loss are not the same thing. You lose weight after every trip to the toilet, but in order to purposefully burn fat, you need to create favorable conditions for this through exercise and nutrition, and then follow this regime for a long time.
When people talk about a fast diet, they are referring to weight loss, not fat loss. On a short-term diet, by severely restricting calories, you deplete glycogen stores, and since glycogen binds water, you lose fluid with it. The arrow on the scales is rapidly creeping down, but as soon as you eat a normal meal, the glycogen stores will be replenished and the lost weight will return.
When a strict diet can help
There are a number of situations when you need to urgently lose weight by several kilograms:
