You can lose 3 kg in a week, but then you need to adopt new lifestyle habits. This is what the French doctor Michel Cohen , nutritionist explains: in his book, The Cohen method , he explains that to lose weight and maintain results it is necessary to have a healthy and balanced relationship with food.

Concessions, mistakes, are possible and indeed positive, if we then know how to get back to better habits. But motivation is needed to lose weight. And from his experience, Dr. Cohen explains that those with 10 to 20 kilos to lose feel the need to see the first kilos disappear faster.
Only in this way will he continue to keep the motivation alive to continue his journey.

For this reason, it is possible to start your weight loss journey with a rapid diet , which allows you to lose at least 3 kg in one week and a maximum of four.

It is therefore not a suitable diet for everyone, especially if the pounds to lose are less than ten. In this case, a lightning regimen at the beginning of the diet is less suitable.

Instead, by putting the diet into a long-term weight loss plan, this initial week is the push many are looking for to continue losing weight. Dr. Cohen also explains that the diet is useful if the surgeon asks the patient to lose weight in preparation for surgery.

We will then see how to follow the most sustainable weight loss phase. Let’s start with Dr. Michel Cohen’s quick diet to follow the first week of our weight loss journey, after obviously having had the approval of our treating doctor.

LESS 3 KG IN A WEEK: DR COHEN’S QUICK DIET

Breakfast.

Omelette of two egg whites or two scrambled egg whites (100 grams) in a non-stick pan.
150 grams of skimmed Greek yogurt or skimmed fromage blanc or a zero Santa Lucia cheese.
Sugar-free coffee, tea, water or herbal tea.
We can use a sweet zero calorie syrup to flavor yogurt or egg whites.
For example Vitadulce chocolate syrup.
Sugar-free dulce de leche syrup, Dulce de leche topping, Low calorie syrup – Vitadulce.

We can also make a light pudding by heating the yogurt in a saucepan or alternatively a glass of skimmed milk, adding the liquid egg white and stirring continuously over low heat without reaching the boiling time, then for a couple of minutes. Put the cream in the fridge, making it the night before. Use the syrup as a topping or sweeten with stevia and flavoring to taste.

Lunch and dinner.
Water acidulated with lemon juice: one glass.

A dish of pureed minestrone without legumes or potatoes or a vegetable broth or a soup that we can make by blending cooked vegetables apart from pumpkin, carrots and beets with a base of vegetable, chicken or meat broth.
A boiled or scrambled egg.
We can also make an omelette by adding half a glass of egg whites or we can add the egg to the soup to obtain a stracciatella. We use fresh herbs and spices.

At the end of the meal 100 grams of quark without added fat or 100 grams of cottage cheese with yogurt or 125 grams of low-fat 0% fat yogurt or 100 grams of skyr or a zero Santa Lucia cheese.
In one of the meals, if we don’t want to consume two eggs a day, we can double the amount of skimmed dairy product.

I have given you all these options because the same menu applies to every day.

It is up to us to vary it. We can also use shirataki noodles in one of the two meals by putting them in the soup.
Shirataki can be found in large supermarkets and ethnic specialty shops or bio shops.

Alternatively, you can find mixed packages on Amazon.
Slendier Slendier Bio Konjak-Noodle fitness trial package: 2 x Fettuccine 250 g, 2 x Spaghetti 250 g, 2 x Rice 250 g .

Snacks and snacks are not included in this plan .

What can we do if we are hungry?
Your best bet would be to just eat some raw cucumbers or celery.
Alternatively, there are sugar-free sweet jellies on the market that contain no more than 10 calories per serving.
See for example Jello-O Sugar-free gelatin .
