A three-day quick diet that I chose to tell you about because it’s not restrictive, but curiously it includes a lot of good things, like chocolate. If it goes for three days, you will have eaten a little less but without making sacrifices, so no contraindications even if it is a fast diet.

It is also very simple to do. Just follow these rules and combine the fast diet with a daily physical activity of 20/30 minutes, but you don’t have to count calories.

It was developed by the British nutritionist Fiona Kirk, of whom I also spoke for the post-holiday diet and for her most famous diet, the Fast Lane .

DR. KIRK’S 3-DAY FAST DIET

– Every morning drink a glass of warm water with lemon juice before breakfast and immediately after getting up.
– Eat only when you feel really hungry.
– Snack with walnuts / hazelnuts / almonds or pistachios or fresh fruit when you’re hungry: eat fresh fruit for breakfast.
– Eat at least 35 gr. 70 percent bitter dark chocolate throughout the day, for example for breakfast with fruit.
– Eat vegetables for both lunch and dinner.
– The main meals in the three day fast diet must be three: breakfast, lunch and dinner five hours apart + two snacks.
