Many women hope to shed unwanted fat and achieve a sexy, curvaceous figure in the summer. However, they often hear friends complaining that after trying various weight loss methods, they've spent money and suffered, but their weight just won't go down. Today, we've compiled some healthy and effective diet-based weight loss methods for those eager to lose weight, allowing you to easily shed excess fat without having to tighten your belt or do strenuous exercise:
1. Apple, grapefruit, and skim milk diet
Apples: People who eat apples to lose weight can also improve symptoms such as dry skin, allergic dermatitis, and constipation.
Grapefruit: The "grapefruit diet" was a weight-loss diet that was highly popular among women in Western countries 30 years ago. A recent study in the United States has found that this diet does indeed have unique weight-loss effects.
Milk: Drinking milk on designated milk days is crucial; you can't drink water. If you repeat this cycle several times, you'll definitely lose weight. It will also effectively reduce body fat. It's recommended to do this on weekends as a good way to cleanse your intestines and lose weight.
Dietary regimen: This method should not be used for too long. Consume unlimited amounts of skim milk daily, along with apples and grapefruits. However, a completely fat-free diet is not good for the skin.
2. Substitution method: Replace high-fat foods with low-fat foods.
Losing weight is a form of self-deception. While satisfying your cravings, you can substitute high-fat foods with similar low-fat options. This "substitution" process naturally reduces your risk of gaining weight.
Sesame paste, peanut butter, salad dressing, and satay sauce are the four types of sauces with the highest calorie content. In this case, you can use sauces with a small amount of fat (such as ketchup or soy sauce) to add flavor and reduce the fattening factors.
3. Cactus Weight Loss Method
The mucilage of cactus is cold in nature and bland in taste; it can promote blood circulation and relieve various lumps. Malic acid promotes gastrointestinal motility. Triterpenes promote the rapid decomposition of excess fat and effectively prevent fat absorption in the intestines, inhibiting fat synthesis in the liver.
How to consume: Take a cactus about half the size of your palm, two egg whites, remove the thorns from the cactus, peel off the outer green skin with a knife, chop it up and mix it into the beaten egg whites. Then put about 30 ml of honey into a pot and heat it until it turns yellow and bubbly. Stir it up and it's ready to eat. Consuming it more than three times a week can achieve good results in weight loss and lowering blood pressure.
4. Peach Blossom Slimming Tea
The beauty and weight-loss benefits of peach blossoms are well-documented in ancient texts. The *Shennong Bencao Jing* states that peach blossoms "improve complexion," while the *Qianjin Yaofang* claims they can "slim the waist." Peach blossoms can be picked in spring or dried in the shade. Use a few petals to make tea each time. Do not increase the quantity. If diarrhea occurs after consumption, discontinue use.
