In the rush to lose weight we can find many diets that promise to let us into better shape without suffering much from hunger. These methods are backed by people who say they have had remarkable results and in some cases are true. One of the most popular diets of the moment is that of the points.
The diet of the points is to give a score to each meal and only eat a limited amount of points depending on weight and metabolism. For example the number of points that a person should eat per day based on weight is as follows: 61 to 70 kg to 18 points a day. 71 to 80 kg to 20 points a day. 81 to 90 kg to 22 points a day. From 91 to 100 Kg up to 24 points a day. Over 100 Kg up to 26 points a day.
The classification of foods according to points is the following: Cheese: 0 points. Ham: 0 points. Arepa with cheese: 5 points. Tuna in oil: 5 points. Hamburger with onions: 12 points
Coffee without sugar: 0 points. Tea without milk and sugar: 0 points. Cappuccino without sugar: 2 points
Meat, fish or chicken into pieces of 100 gr: 0 points.
Foods that have zero points can be taken at any time of day, but if more than twice should be added as a point.
Importantly, each diet should be supervised and approved by a nutritionist because each person is different and it is for one may not work for another.
