These are specialised diets for reducing weight without losing muscular mass, with the control of the TANITA method, which is capable of measuring the quantity of fat, water, and muscular mass in each session.
For rapid weight loss, if there are no contraindications, we use protein diets.
PROTEIN DIETS
Protein diets, which provide an adequate amount of protein while restricting sugars and fats, are an effective option for losing weight and avoiding complications by so called 'miracle diets'.
Protein diets are based on the consumption of protein for weight loss. By reducing the quantity of food in the diet, whilst consuming enough protein, the body uses the body's fat for energy. When it needs energy, it takes it from fat accumulated in the body, and in this way, weight loss occurs.
In this diet there is a lower amount of calories consumed, but hunger is not experienced as much as in other strict diets. Also, the loss of weight (or volume) occurs rapidly, which is a good sign, and which very much helps the person following the diet. Another factor to keep in mind is that the protein diet maintains muscular mass and protects the toning of the skin; it also does not cause a feeling of fatigue often experienced in other diets.
Protein diets are especially indicated for those combating excess weight and obesity, as well as for correcting hyperinsulinism metabolic disorders.
It's important that these diets are used in the correct way, with medical analysis and physical exercise; if the previous are not carried out, there's the possibility that the weight will be regained.
These diets should be carried out in three phases:
Active phase: the amount of weight to lose, and the suitable date to start, are determined. This phase is characterised by consuming vegetables and easy-to-prepare packets of protein.
Transition phase: the patient can consume new foods, acquiring new habits.
Stabilising phase: an adequate balance of foods is sought, which guarantees the maintenance of the new weight and habits, for which continued maintenance medical visits are advised.
Is it possible to lose weight and maintain the loss?
Yes it's possible, so long as the patient adopts healthy habits, and exercises.
Are protein diets healthy?
Achieving a healthy weight is always healthy. With these diets, the adequate proportion of nutrients which the body needs daily is consumed.
Furthermore, for weight loss maintenance, one must follow correct nutritional guidelines, and a regular physical exercise pattern.
Is it possible to lose cellulite with a diet?
No. With a diet, weight loss is achieved, and each patient learns how to eat correctly. It's important to differentiate between weight loss, localized fat, and cellulite. In fact, cellulite has nothing to do with an excess in weight. The medical specialist will select the adequate treatment for cellulite elimination

How many sessions are necessary?
Normally, between 4 and 6 sessions, depending on the extent of the cellulite and the level of obesity.
