Gesta, the Weekend Diet The Gesta Diet was created by dietician Madeleine Gesta initially for the stars that needed to change their body weight in a very short period of time.
The diet is both a weight loss diet and a method of general regeneration. It is very important to note that this diet lasts for 2 days and is based on foods rich in proteins, calcium and vitamins in order to energies the organism.
The principles of the diet:
The diet is characterized by balance, relaxation and a lot of rest,
The diet has 2 phases: the detox treatment and the stabilizing period.
It is made of:
– 3 meals a day
– at each meal the 4-2-1 ratio is respected (4 parts carbs, 2 parts proteins and one part lipids)
– a maximum of 500 g of food for one meal
– 1,5 l water a day, but drink before lunch (in the morning water flows better in the organism) and never during meals
– Choose foods that are not industrially processed
