Is it possible to lose 10 kg in a short time with the Mediterranean diet ?
As we know, the Mediterranean diet, that is the diet that concerns the countries of the Mediterranean area, is based both on the choice of some foods over others (legumes, vegetables, cereals, olive oil, fish, wine), but also on the moderation and conviviality, and is considered one of the healthiest diets in the world.

Yet, the Mediterranean diet is often under accusation because even the countries living in the Mediterranean today have reached high rates of obesity, especially among young people.
So why, if in theory we eat the healthiest diet in the world, do we tend to get fat?
The problem is that our shopping cart often consists of food that our grandparents did not have available. The Mediterranean diet of the past was, in short, essentially peasant or simple.
How to fix it, especially if we want to lose weight and maintain results?

We see it with a Mediterranean diet scheme to lose 10 kg in 8 weeks and a maintenance one.

The Mediterranean diet to lose 10 kg in 8 weeks consists of two phases . The first allows you to lose about 6 kg in the first month, the second phase, of transition, allows you to lose at least one kg per week. Subsequently, the maintenance plan is followed according to the recommendations of the new food pyramid of the Mediterranean diet.
