I tried a different version of this diet but the rules and menu wasn’t as clear as this version… I was already on a very low calorie eating plan before I started so the low calories didn’t effect my daily eating much. I lost about 3 kgs in 13 days and that to me is a big win and I lost a whole bunch of cm’s. I will try this version in a few months because according to this I “cheated” a lot 🙂
Look I’m actually all for lifestyle changing instead of diets… but if your mindset is right a diet can teach you some key lessons on how and what to eat.
And remember after your diet, keep to a healthy lifestyle otherwise you will just pick up all the weight you’ve lost.
The 13 Day Metabolism Diet
- Due to the strength of this diet, it is recommended that you plan it so that you do not have any big events planned during your next 13 days.
- The best starting time is on a Sunday, which only gives you one miserable weekend. This allows you to lose min 9 Kg only if it is done strictly. From the 14th day you can start eating normally again, without putting on weight for three years because the diet has altered your metabolism.
- WW (Wholewheat bread) – only to be eaten with A SCRAPING of butter/margarine – nothing else.
- Please note that you need to drink a minimum of 2 liters of water per day. The purpose of this diet is to change your metabolism, with the result that after this diet you can eat normally again. Please note that this is not a traditional crash diet, but a diet to change your metabolism digestion as it continuous working after 13 days. If the diet is followed in a strict manner, you should lose all excess body fat, between 9-20 kg. This diet must be followed for 13 days only-no longer and no less.
- If during the 13 days you consume 1 beer, 1 glass of wine one piece of chewing gum or any extra food, you might as well stop diet because it becomes pointless and the diet will have no effect in this case, you may try again after 3 months.
- If you have followed this diet perfectly for 13 days, you must not repeat it under any circumstances before 12 months have passed. It is recommended that this diet is repeated every 2 years if so required.
- no cheating, not even slightly.
- no chewing gum (even the sugar free types)
- no alcohol: beer, wine, champagne, ciders, etc
- no milk, sugar (exception of day 8!) Or honey are allowed.
- you may use sweetener (aspartame free), lemon juice, balsamic vinegar, onions and salt and pepper for seasoning. No other spices or fresh herbs, no salad dressing (even if it’s light)
- ham can be substituted for lean beef (silverside)
- no diet coldrinks allowed – only coffee for breakfast 7am – 12pm (lunch) the rest of the day you must drink water (lemon juice can be added)
- salad consists only of lettuce & cucumber
- no oil for cooking (even if it’s extra virgin olive oil) spray & cook may be used.
- this diet is set out the way it is to detox your metabolism and to give it a boost, if you change food in it there is no certainty that the diet will work the way it is suppose to.
