Special Recommendations

When preparing food such as meat or fish, it is best to use a tablespoon of olive oil at lunch and another at dinner. In order to add some flavor, it is always advisable that instead of using salt or sauces, we do so by adding spices. Since they will add flavor but not calories. On the other hand we must drink a lot of water, also in the form of infusions throughout the day. A liter and a half will help us eliminate toxins and purify the body.

We must keep to the letter the five meals that we mentioned. It is true that we can change the vegetables or chicken for turkey or vary between the different types of fish that we have. But always in an amount as recommended to be able to comply with the 900 calorie diet. As for the recommended cooking, the oven, steamed or grilled is always preferable.

Guidelines to carry out this hypocaloric diet

• First of all we must have a good motivation. To do this, it will be to think about our objective and add willpower to it, because it is achieved. As soon as we see the first results, we will take the 900 calorie diet much better.
• Try to get some exercise, but without overdoing it. Going for a walk can be one of the most beneficial.
• Avoid sweet or fatty foods at all times. When you have a moment of weakness, it is always better to have an infusion or some fruit filled with water such as a piece of watermelon or a handful of strawberries.
• In the same way, we will forget about carbonated soft drinks or those with high concentration of sugars. The best thing is to opt for a piece of fruit or to make a natural and homemade juice.
• Once a week, you can introduce red meat, although turkey or chicken is always better, for its protein and also for its low fat content.
• If you always get tired of chicken or turkey meat, you can also add a handful of lentils and make a plate of these with vegetables. They provide us with protein at the same time as fiber and other vitamins.
