Summer diet for losing weight

This diet is good for the summer days when we don’t want to waste so much time in cooking and we don’t want to eat so much meat. It’s called summer diet because there is variety of vegetables in the summer but if you want you can try it in any other season. :)

It is good to drink liquids before the meals, not to water down the gastric juices during the meals. You can drink water after you eat too.

Remember to do the exercises 2 hours after you eat and have one of the main meals right after exercises.
