The Warrior Diet

The Warrior diet allows people to eat in the evening as much as they wish, without any calorie restrictions, while during daytime it allows for only small amounts of food. The diet, which controversial due to the fact that it does not use any form of calorie counting, was designed by a former Special Forces soldier, who reportedly relied upon military methods of dieting.
After a few weeks, this diet reduces hunger during the day. However, if there it is the urge to eat something during the day, this diet allows for only healthy food like fruits, fresh vegetables and low amounts of proteins. Carbohydrates are not allowed.
Long periods without proteins are thought to increase their efficiency when they are consumed. Those who follow this diet aim for burning fats, cleaning the body of toxins, and making hormones reach the maximum level of efficiency.
The Warrior diet has two phases. During the first phase, only low amounts of food are allowed, while in the second phase larger portions are permitted.
Those who follow this diet need a period of accommodation of up to three weeks to get used to it. During the overeating phase the body`s tissues and muscles are rebuilt, metabolism is increased, and glycogen reserves are refilled.
Between morning and lunch, a glass or two of water, coffee, tea, fresh fruits, or fresh juice are allowed. From lunch to dinner, dieters are allowed to drink tea, coffee, fresh juice from fruits or vegetables, or eat fruits.
During the accommodation period of up to three weeks the recommended foods are green salad with or without dressing, lean proteins, and raw peanuts.
In the evening dieters may eat anything as long as they follow the rules of the Warrior diet. They should start with green vegetables with leaves, continue with proteins, vegetables and fats, and then finish with carbohydrates only when they feel more thirsty than hungry.
