Losing weight quickly can sound really appealing, right? The idea of dropping 5 kg in just one week can make anyone curious. But before you start a drastic diet, fitness expert Ekansh Taneja warns that these quick fixes can have serious side effects.
Ekansh, who lost an amazing 35 kg himself, often shares weight loss tips on Instagram. He recently shared a “guaranteed” diet plan that might help you lose 5 kg in a week. However, he wants everyone to know that while this plan might work, it isn’t the healthiest or most sustainable way to lose weight.
If you’re ready for a challenge and can stick to it, here’s the diet plan Ekansh suggests:
Ekansh’s One-Week Weight Loss Diet Plan:
Morning Ritual – 6:30 AM
– Fennel Seed Water: Soak 1 teaspoon of fennel seeds in water overnight. Strain it and drink on an empty stomach. This helps with digestion and bloating.
Breakfast – 8:00 AM
– Avocado Bowl: Have one whole avocado sprinkled with black salt and lemon juice. It’s full of healthy fats and has very few carbs.
– Green Tea: One cup, unsweetened, to kick-start your metabolism.
Mid-Morning Snack – 10:30 AM
– Cucumber & Mint Detox Water: Infuse water with cucumber slices, mint leaves, and a pinch of pink salt. It’s a refreshing, calorie-free drink!
Lunch – 1:00 PM
– Zucchini Noodles with Olive Oil: One cup of spiralized zucchini, cooked with garlic and chili flakes in one teaspoon of olive oil.
– Green Salad: Lettuce, cucumber, and a few almonds (5-6) with lemon vinaigrette. This is hydrating and low in carbs.
– Fennel Seed Tea: A soothing drink that aids digestion.
Afternoon Snack – 4:00 PM
– Coconut Water: Good for hydration, but it has no protein.
– Herbal Tea: Choose unsweetened peppermint or chamomile tea.
Dinner – 7:30 PM
– Vegetable Soup: A clear broth made with boiled spinach, celery, and mushrooms, lightly seasoned.
– Steamed Asparagus: One cup, with a drizzle of lemon juice.
– Green Tea: A calming cup to help you relax before bed.
Evening Detox – 9:00 PM
– Fennel Cinnamon Water: Boil fennel seeds with a small cinnamon stick in water, cool it down, then strain and sip slowly.
Ekansh’s Important Warning: Quick Fixes Can Backfire!
Ekansh is clear about the risks of losing weight too quickly. He says: “If you follow this diet, along with one hour of cardio each day, you might lose 5 kg or more in a week. But there are problems: you could become unhealthy, your metabolism might slow down, and you could gain back all the weight (or even more) once you start eating normally again.”
Rapid weight loss sounds fun, but it can lead to an unhealthy cycle of losing and regaining weight. Instead, Ekansh suggests focusing on healthy habits that you can keep long-term.
So, are you still thinking about this quick challenge? Or would you rather take a slower, healthier approach? The choice is yours!
