There are a lot of diets available online that promise quick and effective results, but very few of them are as effective as the cucumber diet we are about to present to you. If you combine this remarkable diet with regular exercise, it can help you lose a few pounds. It lasts for two weeks. Cucumbers are the main food in the diet.
Most importantly, you can eat it whenever you're really hungry. You can eat it in unlimited quantities at meals. Additionally, it benefits your entire body because it improves digestion, purifies the body, and stimulates the metabolism, in addition to cleaning the intestines.
Here’s how the diet plan looks like:
Breakfast: slice 200 gr. of cucumbers and add them to a cup of low-fat yogurt, and eat an apple or a few peach slices if you’re still hungry.
Lunch: for lunch, you’ll need to take a bowl of cucumber salad and a piece of bread. Alternatively, you can prepare the following recipe:
Ingredients
- 1 cucumber
- 2 potatoes
- 300 gr. of fresh fruits
- Tea or coffee with no sugar
Instructions
Boil or bake the potatoes and eat them with a piece of wheat bread and sliced cucumbers. For a snack, have some dried fruits or a fruit salad. You can also have a cup of coffee or tea with no sugar.
Here’s another great meal you can have for lunch:
Ingredients
- 150 gr. of tuna or 2 eggs or 2 150 gr. of white meat
- 3 slices of whole wheat bread or 2 potatoes
- 1 cucumber
You can either choose potatoes or bread and eat them with some tuna or cucumber – it’s up to you. If you don’t like the taste of tuna, eat grilled white meat and hard-boiled eggs.
Here’s a few ideas for snacks while on the cucumber diet:
