Protein diet: breakfast

Drink 1 glass of water, which is warmed to room temperature, and after a quarter of an hour (not earlier) you can have breakfast. You do this to help your digestive tract better process food.

For breakfast - coffee without sugar, but with milk to 1% fat. Either a glass of tea, too, without sugar, but with milk.

If it's hard for you to do without sugar, take a substitute or fructose. Also for breakfast, you can add 100 - 150 grams of cottage cheese (up to 1% fat content)

An hour after breakfast

If you want to eat, do not starve yourself. Drink 250 grams of tea without sugar, you can green.
