So how does this diet plan work? It's very simple. You eat half a grapefruit before every meal. The enzyme it has decreases your appetite so you consume less calories. It also speeds up the fat burning process, helping you to lose pounds.
Everyone understands that if you spend more energy than you absorb from the food you eat, you will drop weight.

Some studies recommend that you could lose up to ten pounds in less than 2 weeks just by introducing this change. Personally, I believe you would have a much better possibility of success if you also cut your portion sizes, ate four or 5 smaller sized meals instead of 3 big ones, and took part in more exercise.
It is completely pointless thinking that one simple change in your lifestyle is going to lead to a huge weight-loss. You have to assess all areas of your life. Do you eat food due to the fact that you are bored? Upset? Do you get enough exercise?
A lot of Americans are not active enough. You do not suddenly need to become a gym fanatic, however, a little extra activity every day will help. I certain you can think of a million ways to include some movement to your sedentary way of life. You can take the stairs instead of the lift, get off the metro one stop early, walk to the store, and so on.
In the same way, you can make good progress by carrying out simple changes at mealtimes. Instead of frying your food, which just includes extra calories, try grilling, baking, or steaming. Find out how to cook rather than counting on prepackaged meals that add dollars to your expenses, in addition to pounds to your waist.
Use herbs and spices to season your meals rather than salt to help avoid fluid retention. Eat more fruits and vegetables. They are high in fiber, low in calories, and very filling. Your skin will glow from all the additional minerals and vitamins you are consuming.
Do not eat carbohydrates after 5 pm at night, as your body will not have sufficient time to use up all the energy they release. The body transforms excess energy into fat. Eat protein, but choose the leaner cuts of meat, and forget about sausages and various other processed foods in the meantime. Don't leave out all treats, rather go for quality instead of quantity.
Stop eating when you are full and not when your plate is empty. Do not mistake being thirsty for feeling hungry. Stop eating hidden calories via flavored waters, carbonated soda, and perhaps the greatest culprit of all, alcohol. You can shrink your midsection by using the 12 day grapefruit diet, but only if you combine it with a healthy eating and exercise program.
