Diet on eggs and oranges for a week
Sometimes you only have 7 days to get rid of 3-4 extra pounds. It is for such cases that a diet on eggs and oranges for a week has been developed. Although this method of losing weight is short-term, it is quite effective.
The diet is based on eating eggs and oranges. Provided that a person is allergic to oranges, these citrus fruits can be replaced with grapefruits. The egg is a source of protein, and also allows you to saturate the body with vitamins and minerals. Oranges, when eaten, stimulate metabolic processes in the body, cleanse the intestines, removing toxins from it, which is possible due to the abundance of fiber in these fruits. At the same time, both eggs and oranges are low-calorie foods that allow you to lose weight.

Reviews and results of those who have lost weight
Tatiana: “I cannot call the experiment with a diet on oranges and eggs successful. At first everything was fine, the weight was gone. However, by the end of the week, there were problems with the kidneys, which previously did not make themselves known. I had to go to the doctor, I needed treatment. I spent a lot of money and time on therapy, on finding a good doctor, on medications … Is losing 4 kg worth such torment? I think no.
The menu is very meager. On the Web, you can find information that you should eat 3 eggs 3 times a day per day. I ate only proteins, only 3 eggs a day. I also ate 3 oranges. The state of health was bad, my nerves were giving up.
In addition to kidney problems, I also developed dental problems. I think the acid from the oranges is to blame. I am glad that I got rid of the pain in my teeth quickly enough. The weight I lost has never returned. Now I feel good, but when I remember all that hell I had to go through, I shiver. I do not recommend this diet to anyone, as it can harm even an absolutely healthy person."
Alena: “This diet will help you lose weight only if you need to lose a small amount of extra pounds. I have 25 of them, so the diet did not make a strong impression on me.
First, you can stick to it for no longer than a week, which is very little. Secondly, eggs help to increase the level of cholesterol in the blood, which is already abundant in it. It will be difficult for the liver to handle large amounts of protein foods. Also, nausea bothered me from time to time. I think that not only the eggs are to blame, but also the constant feeling of hunger. Thirdly, it is very difficult to abruptly give up large portions and switch to such a meager diet. Three eggs and three oranges are very little, the energy is only enough to lie in bed all day. Although you can eat 9 oranges and eggs a day, but I think that with this menu you can quickly get to the hospital.
Pros of the diet: it helps to lose about 4 kg per week, chubby cheeks quickly go away, cheekbones appear. With its help, you can bring yourself into shape, for example, before some important event in life."
Marina: “After 3 days from the beginning of the diet, my body began to demand a different meal. I really love oranges, so sitting on them a day is not a problem for me. In the evening I also ate an omelet with fresh cucumber and felt great. For more than 5-6 days I cannot master such a monotonous diet. During this time, more than 3.5 kg will not go away. In general, if you figure it out, then only excess water leaves, and fat deposits remain.
I am glad that you can eat eggs that can replace meat. I did not experience energy deficit during the diet. Another little secret: I replaced a full meal with an orange. To do this, I cut it into slices, put it on a plate and eat it, while drinking a mug of green tea. If you add watching your favorite movie to such a meal, then you can call this pastime bliss. For about 2 hours, hunger completely recedes. Therefore, they can call the diet quite normal."
