Anna Johansson, a Swedish nutrition expert author of the 6 Petal Diet. To date, the six-petalled diet has had positive feedback. It is used by a lot of European women who have successfully lost weight. According to statistics, up to 800 g per day is lost depending on the initial weight.
The author of the diet draws our attention to a diet based on the monodiet principle. A certain product is provided each day, while the days must be clearly consecutive, as required by the principles of this method of weight loss. Anna says you can get the results you want in no time by alternating monodetails for 6 days.
In addition, the author of the diet took into account the psychological side of weight loss. He suggested that the principles of the diet be depicted in the form of a colorful flower with six petals. To do this, cut a flower with six petals, assign a color to each petal, and write the following: fish, vegetables, chicken, cereals, cottage cheese, and fruit. In the same order, a diet of 6 petals should be followed, at the same time cutting a petal with an appropriate name at the end of each day. This way you can psychologically adjust yourself to how successful the day was and the willpower overcame the temptations.
