BANANA DIET

hey, it's Gaby again.
guess what's really happening in Japan right now, especially among girls?! (you can easily guess by the title)
yap! it's banana diet or in Japanesse, banana daito.
I've checked several website and they said that this diet is the simplest and easiest diet in the world (too dramatic, isn't it?)
so, I'll tell you something about it . . . .

THE RULES

1. First thing's first, you have to eat your meal very mindfully.
Do NOT eat until you're full, but until you're satisfied!
The Japanesse have a proverb, "Hara hachibu ni isha irazu" - A stomach eighttenths fill needs no doctor.
this is the key of this diet actually.

2. Eat raw banana and sip a glass of water for breakfast.
you can wat more than one, and if you still hungry 15 or 30 minutes later, you can eat other food.
the Japanesse sometimes eat onigiri or riceball about 2 hours later. but the other suggest oatmeal. but it's not as portable as riceball.

3. Eat normally for lunch and dinner, but NO DESSERT please.

4. Drink only water.
a few forum said, you can drink herbal tea or coffee. but softdrink and alcohol are extremely unacceptable.

5. You may eat afternoon snack at 3 pm

6. Early to bed
bed before midnight. and make sure you eat your dinner before 8 pm

7. Keep diet journal


WARNING: This diet haven't tested professionally, so there's no guarantee of how much your weight will be decreased for sure.
