Is the Japanese Diet your New Years Resolution?

We have just returned back to work from the Holidays and after a few days I couldn’t help but notice this pungent smell in my office. I then asked my coworker Tali who I share my office with what she was eating for lunch the last few days, she laughed and began to tell me about her New Year’s resolution. Tali has decided to start her new year off right.  Her resolution as I am sure the majority of the world’s resolution is to lose weight. So I asked her how she was going to lose the weight and she began explaining to me the “Japanese Diet”.

What is the Japanese Diet?

The Japanese diet is a very powerful diet which will help you to lose 7-8 kg approximately 16 pounds fast. This diet is suppose to speed up your metabolism within 13 days but will last for 2 months or longer after only one week spent on this diet plan. At first glance there is nothing special in this diet but it is a balanced diet which should be followed strictly to reach best results.

How the Japanese diet works?

During this time you may only drink water between your meals. It is important to drink at least 8 cups of water per day. Did you know that water increases your metabolism? Cold water can even help burn calories. Cconsidering that the definition of a calorie is based on raising the temperature of water, it is safe to say that your body burns calories when it has to raise the temperature of ice water to your body temperature.

This diet does not allow any salt, sugar, alcohol, bread and any other foods except for the ones in the menu, which makes this diet a low calorie diet, and difficult to follow.

For best results do not make any changes to the Japanese diet menu. If you strictly follow this diet you will loose up to 15 pounds or even more depending on your initial weight and age.

Japanese Diet Menu
Day 1

Breakfast: black coffee without sugar.
Lunch: 2 boiled eggs, salad (med size bowl) made of fresh cabbage mixed with one teaspoon of vegetable oil, a glass of tomato juice or 1 fresh tomato.
Dinner: fried or boiled fish, salad (med size bowl) made of fresh cabbage mixed with one teaspoon of vegetable oil.

Analysis Day 1: Coffee suppresses appetite and increases metabolism. Eggs are a good source of protein and fat, It takes just as many calories for your body to digest cabbage as you would get out of cabbage itself Basically this is a low calorie, low carb, and high protein diet.

Day 2

Breakfast: black coffee without sugar and one toast.
Lunch: fried or boiled fish, salad (med size bowl) made of fresh cabbage mixed with one teaspoon of vegetable oil.
Dinner: 200 g of boiled beef, a glass of organic low-fat yogurt. (protein)

Analysis Day 2: Again low calorie, low carb and high protein diet.

Day 3

Breakfast: black coffee without sugar.
Lunch: raw egg, salad made of 3 big boiled carrots mixed with one teaspoon of vegetable oil.
Dinner: apples, as many as you want. (fiber)

Day 4

Breakfast: black coffee without sugar.
Lunch: 1 big parsley fried in vegetable oil, 3 apples.
Dinner: 2 boiled eggs, 200 g of boiled beef, salad (med size bowl) made of fresh cabbage mixed with one teaspoon of vegetable oil.

Day 5

Breakfast: salad made of 2 big raw carrots mixed with lemon juice.
Lunch: 500 g of low-fat fish fried or boiled a glass of tomato juice.
Dinner: fried or boiled fish, salad made of fresh cabbage mixed with one teaspoon of vegetable oil.

Day 6

Breakfast: black coffee without sugar.
Lunch: 500 g of boiled chicken without skin, salad (med size bowl) made of raw carrots or fresh cabbage.
Dinner: 2 boiled eggs, salad made of raw carrot mixed with vegetable oil.

Day 7

Breakfast: tea without sugar.
Lunch: 200 g of boiled beef, fruit.
Dinner: everything you want from menus of previous days except day 3.

Repeat the same menu for next 5 days beginning from day 1.

After being on The Japanese diet, you can return to their normal diet without fear of restoring the original weight. But it’s recommended every 2-3 years to repeat this procedure for prevention.

Don’t be fooled!

There are many different versions and variations to the Japanese Diet. Also on some days my coworker substitutes ingredients.  For instance one day she did not have cabbage and substituted it for lettuce. Any diet not followed the way it is stated could give different results, so it all depends on how strict you are in following the diet. During this diet as well as other diets it is encouraged that you do some sort of physical activities.

The Results

If the Japanese Diet is followed correctly and religiously you will experience the weight loss. The Japanese Diet is very restrictive. Some dieters may be intimidated by the view of such a dramatic change in dietary style compared to there regular diet or eating habits. When you stop following the Japanese Diet or any diet for that matter weight does tend to come back, sometimes even double, so be cautious of what diet you follow and how it will affect you later. As of Day 9 Tali has lost approximately 7 pounds, and counting. So I guess the smelly lunches and dinners do pay off for her.
