Today we will talk about healthy and delicious way to lose weight and become or stay fit and healthy.

Watermelons are the perfect snack to cool of on a hot summer day but they can also help cleanse our bodies and assist in weight-loss. Watermelons are about 91% water and contain only 6% sugar.



They also have some essential nutrients to offer: vitamin C, beta-carotene, vitamins B1 and B6, lycopene (an antioxidant), potassium and magnesium. Concerning calories, watermelons don’t deliver much of that as 100 grams of watermelon translates into approximately 30 calories.

We will show you two types of Watermelon diet, one that works on a longer term (9-13 days) and a shorter one that consists of a 5-day meal plan.

Long-term plan

There is one long-term Watermelon Diet which is in fact a detox diet, but since it cuts back calories, it’s also an effective way of losing weight. This diet is easy to follow although like with any diet, it’s recommended you seek the doctor’s advice before following it. The Watermelon diet consists of two stages:

Stage 1

The first stage is actually a mono diet. For three days you have to eat nothing else but watermelon. It is restrictive in both calories and nutrients, although for a healthy individual there shouldn’t be any problems, since it only lasts 3 days.



 

Stage 2

The second stage will include 2 meals a day, watermelon being used as a snack between them. This stage lasts between 6-10 days. It’s not as restrictive as the first phase of the diet, but it does provide little food variety. We recommend following this stage for the minimum period, meaning 6 days.

Since watermelons have a lot of water, you might not feel the need to drink plain water. You should only drink plain water if you feel thirsty between meals and snacks.

The 5-days Watermelon Diet

This means you cannot add any extra calories to it.

Both long-term and short-term meal plans are in fact low-calorie diets. If you don’t have any health problems the Watermelon diet won’t do you any harm. Nevertheless, the severe calorie restriction and little food variety can make you prone to overeating once the diet is over.  As soon as you get off this diet plan try to incorporate whole, nutritious foods in your meals and stick to regular-sized portions.

If you’re also exercising during this diet you should keep your workouts light. Since the Watermelon diet provides only few calories, you may feel tired, dizzy and/or lightheaded if your workouts are too intense. If you experience these or other unpleasant symptoms it’s definitely recommended you stop following this diet.
