Anna Johansson, a registered dietitian in Sweden, is the author of the 6 Petal Diet. To date, the six-petal diet has had rave reviews. It is used by many European women who have successfully lost weight. Statistically, up to 800 g is lost every day, depending on the initial weight.
The author of this diet brings to our attention a diet based on the principle of a single diet. A certain product is provided for each day, while the days must be clearly followed one after another, as specified in the principles of this weight loss method. Anna asserts that by alternating single diets for 6 days, you can achieve the desired results in a short time.
In addition, the author of the diet took into account the psychological aspect of people who lose weight. She offers to describe the principles of the diet in the form of a colorful flower with six petals. To do this, you need to cut a flower with six petals, assign a color to each petal and write the following on them: fish, vegetables, chicken, cereals, cheese and fruit. In the same sequence, a 6-petal diet should be followed, and at the same time, at the end of each day, a appropriately named petal should be cut off. Thanks to that, you can mentally set yourself up for success today and have the will to overcome temptations.
