There is a delicious and varied diet with which you can live your whole life. Not only will it allow you to regain your slimness in four weeks, but it will also make you healthier and younger. We offer the Maggi diet - a menu for every day.
Characteristics of the Maggie diet
This method of achieving harmony is not based on reducing calories. You will eat enough calories without giving up fruits, vegetables, meat and dairy products. And even bread! The mechanism of action of such a diet is that the body receives all the necessary nutrients, and at the same time triggers the mechanism of those chemical reactions that speed up metabolism, release toxins and restore all the disturbed processes in the body.
Food means a lot for health, mood, longevity.
It is this correct combination of foods, as with the Maggi diet, designed for the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Margaret Thatcher. Hence, probably, the name - Maggie.
How many extra pounds can you lose?
You can lose 10 to 25 pounds in 4 weeks. Proven in practice by many people. But there is no need to hurry. Furthermore, the body will return to normal and the person will lose exactly as many pounds as he needs for health. Our body is naturally unique and perfect, it is able to get rid of disease and excess weight without pills. But we have to help him in only one thing - to listen to his demands and moderate gluttony. So, diet, that is, discipline in nutrition, which we lost in the search for pleasure.
Food should be pleasant and useful. By following Maggie's diet rules, you will learn to enjoy the food that every body needs. When you lose weight, you will not lose your health, because you will not have to give up either carbohydrates or protein.
Dietary rules for diet
If you want to get the expected result, and not for a short time, but for a lifetime, you should follow the rules at all points. And that means that there is only what is prescribed by the diet, that one product is not replaced by another, that it is eaten at the same time, that it is not eaten 3 hours before bedtime. And drink two liters of water a day.
On the other hand, you can eat after 6pm if you go to bed after 9pm. Your figure will not suffer from this. Another nice plus is that you choose the menu yourself, according to your wishes. But the emphasis will be on proteins: eggs, cottage cheese, not fatty meat. Another indisputable plus: everyone can afford a diet.
It is worth mentioning all the benefits of this food:
- no need to count calories;
- all products are simple;
- coffee and tea are not limited;
- there are no restrictions in product selection.
Maggie allows you to eat fruits and vegetables in sufficient quantities, as well as bread. You can make toast for breakfast, why not. In general, Maggi is divided into two types: egg and cottage cheese. You should eat three times a day, snacks are possible. You can alternate the curd variation with eating eggs.

Maggie diet with eggs: a detailed menu for 4 weeks
It should be said right away that eggs will not increase blood cholesterol. Excess cholesterol is excreted on its own, and is disposed of only if there is vascular inflammation. Eggs are not harmful to healthy people, they are a storehouse of vitamins and minerals. So, it's 4 weeks for me.
In the first 7 days you have to adjust to the change in diet:
- for breakfast, always half an orange or grapefruit, as well as one or two hard-boiled or soft-boiled eggs;
- for lunch: fruit you want (from allowed), or boiled chicken, turkey and tomato, or fresh cheese 9% fat plus one tomato, a piece of cheese, two loaves;
- dinner: a piece of boiled pork, skinless chicken, turkey or beef, plus a salad of lettuce or tomato, cucumber or vegetables, two loaves of bread, two boiled eggs.
for the second week:
- the same for breakfast;
- for lunch and dinner - the same, but you can add lean fish.
The third week is shocking. Dietary changes:
- any fruit in any quantity is allowed on Mondays;
- on Tuesdays: any of the permitted vegetables, cooked, stewed or raw;
- Wednesday: any fruits or vegetables, but not in one common meal;
- on Thursday: boiled or stewed fish and cooked vegetables or lettuce;
- on Friday: lean meat and vegetables in any quantity;
- on Saturday and Sunday: any fruit of what is allowed by the heart.
The last 7 days have been interesting. During the day, you must eat four slices of chicken, beef or fish, a slice of cheese (100 g), 1 orange or grapefruit, 4 cucumbers, 3 tomatoes, 1 toast. All this must be arranged during the day. Drinking without restrictions.
Maggie curd diet for 4 weeks
The curd version of the diet is not far from the one with eggs. The only difference is that instead of eggs you need to eat low-fat cottage cheese of 150-200 gr. in one go. The first and second weeks include a boring breakfast of half a fruit and cottage cheese. But you can take turns taking eggs for breakfast. Thus, on the menu for 4 weeks, two breakfasts can consist of fruit and eggs, and two of fruits and young cheese.
By the way, a diet with cottage cheese is not suitable for those who have increased stomach acidity.
Recipes for cooking
Let us remind you, the diet according to the Maggi system does not include fried food, nor the use of meat and even vegetable soup.
Cooking should be easier.
For example, Red Trio salad:
Large red peppers must be roasted, then peeled and cut into squares. Cut the red onion into rings, 20 cherry tomatoes in half. Mix everything with a handful of red pomegranate, a whisper of ground black pepper, wine vinegar or lemon juice, parsley and cilantro.
"Spicy salmon" is steamed. Pour two steaks with a teaspoon of lemon juice and marinate in two tablespoons of soy sauce. Then put in the pot for just 2 minutes. If you do not have steam, you can put the fish in a pan without oil and add a little water. Two minutes, you can shoot. This fish goes great with roasted vegetables.
Exercise with the Maggi diet
No diet can be effective without physical activity. You need to perform the simplest exercises, starting with bending and turning the head and neck, then the shoulders, arms, lower back, legs. Separately, you can do press exercises, because the stomach will be reduced by diet. And if the skin does not hang, it would be better to tighten it.
Even with a lack of time or other problems, you should walk for at least half an hour, but every day.
Swimming is a great alternative: 20-30 minutes a day.
And in a month, your figure will be the one you dreamed of. And eating habits will change and become sweeter, more pleasant. The need for a healthy diet will become the norm, not coercion.
