Lose 10 Pounds in just 7 days with Lemons

This is an easy and efficient diet that will help you lose 10 pounds in a week. The ingredients have many health benefits and the diet is proven to be efficient in short period of time.

Lemon Diet

Breakfast:

• Start the day with a glass of cool lemonade – it will help you activate the metabolism and detoxify the body. 
• After half an hour, eat 2 apples or 2 oranges or 1 big grapefruit. Besides the fruit, take a handful of nuts, almonds or hazelnuts, which are a great source of antioxidants.

Lunch:

• Diet bread and yogurt.

Snack:

• A fresh salad with olive oil and a little salt.

Dinner:

• Try eating dinner before 6 p.m. Make some lettuce salad with olive oil and little salt.
• Drink 1 liter of green tea (put 4 bags of green tea in 1 liter of water) before going to bed.

Follow this regime for a week or 10 days, depending on how much weight you want to lose. It is to expect to lose 10 pounds in a week.

Fresh Lemons

How it Actually Works:

Like other detoxification diet programs, lemon diet allows us to take a break from solid and processed food to allow our metabolism to ‘breathe’ and cleanse itself. We love our food so much that we are no longer aware of putting too much junks into our bodies. Combine that with the toxins we inhale everyday and we have an overworked digestive system that contributes to our continuous battle with weight.

The citric acid in lemon (at seven to eight per cent, it has the highest concentration of all fruits) significantly helps boost our system and cleanse our ‘dirty’ system. Whereas, the pectin found in lemon peel helps with weight loss in two ways: 

• it slows down the absorption of sugar from the food we consume and also makes us resist hunger for up to four hours (Journal of the American College of Nutrition). 
• Besides, the acid in lemon affects our digestive system in such a way that it absorbs more calcium – which helps in the fat burning process.

Lemonade

The best is, you don’t have to starve yourself in a lemon diet. True, you only have to watch your food intake – but you don’t have to live on lemon juice and cayenne pepper like other mentally-testing detox diet. Take note of your assigned menu for the next seven days, starting next Monday!
