Have You Tried The Tuna and Water Diet?

Do you want know a hardcore diet to get lean in a matter of days? I’ve been told that this diet is used by bodybuilders to prepare before the competition. It requires an iron willpower but guarantees 100% results.

Here is how it works:

• Usually this diet is followed for three full days.
• Take in 6 equal tuna servings. Once every 2,5 – 3 hours.
• Drink lots of water. At least 3-4 liters. Water fills your stomach and helps you not to feel hungry.
• Take some vitamins twice a day. This part is crucial since you won’t get much vitamins from tuna during this diet.
• You will need at least 1 to 1.5 grams of protein per pound of your weight. Here are two handy formulas to calculate your tuna serving size:

  For kilogram calculation: (bodyweight * 3 * 100) / (6 * 26) = bodyweight * 300 / 156 = 1 tuna serving (in gram)
  For pound calculation: bodyweight * 100 / 156 or bodyweight * 150 / 156 = 1 tuna serving (in gram)

Don’t think it’s an easy task, for beginners. I’d recomend to start the diet on friday evening after the work and keep it for two days ( in the weekend). The reason is that you usually can’t control the regular food eating habits very well during a workday as you work normally 4 hours or more, non stop and get only one break to eat. The two days diet is not as hard as the 3 or 4 days diet. If you can follow this diet for two days without any problems, then the next step is try to keep it for one or two days more, simple as that!

Stay focus and be aware of forbidden foods. Your energy levels may go down in the first day. And you may feel very weak as never before. But this is the time of your spirit to stay as hard as rock and keep to the diet! Your body will soon adapt and your energy will come back.
