The Forking slimming method is also called the fork diet. And for good reason, meals should only be enjoyed with this single utensil in order to reduce their food consumption. Lose weight in a few strokes of forks.
Proposed by Ivan Gavriloff, a polytechnician, the Forking method relies not only on the sole use of the fork but also on a daily dietary organisation based on three postulates: a "king's breakfast", a "prince's lunch" and a "poor man's dinner". The Forking diet exists in two versions. The Forking Strict and the Forking Soft. It's up to you to decide which one suits you best.
The method
In this diet, the focus is on the way you eat. As with chrono-nutrition, it is a matter of setting our stomachs back on track. To do this, the day begins with a "king's breakfast", which is supposed to provide the energy fuel we need. Then comes the "prince's lunch", rich in proteins, slow sugar and vegetables. Finally, to counteract the phenomenon of fat storage, which is facilitated during the night, it is recommended to eat lightly by offering a "poor man's dinner". But be careful, the evening meal has a specificity: the use of the fork. We abandon the spoon and the knife to use only this one. The aim? To reduce food consumption, since this cutlery does not allow you to eat large mouthfuls and, in addition, its tines filter the sauce. It goes without saying that eating with the fingers or sautéing is not allowed. And why does this principle only apply to dinner? Simply to avoid deficiencies and frustrations caused by strict dietary rules. You will therefore need the willpower to adopt a healthy diet on your own and apply it to every meal.
In practice
Strict forking
As soon as dinner is prepared, it is strictly forbidden to use a knife or spoon. Don't panic! To help you make the right nutritional choices, this variant includes a list of "blacklisted" foods:
Forget all the foods you eat with your fingers:
- - snack biscuits, crisps, olives, nuts, almonds or chips... ;
- - sandwiches, hamburgers, pizzas, quiches, sausages, or fried chicken..;
- - cheese
- - fresh fruit
- - biscuits, sweets and other chocolates...
- - bread, whether fresh or toasted and pastries
Do not eat anything that you spread with a knife:
- - cheeses and spreads ;
- - mayonnaise, butter, margarine, ketchup or mustard...
Leave out anything you swallow with a spoon:
- - soups, soups...
- - yoghurt or cereals
- - ice cream, sorbets, and other desserts...
- - sauces
Certain vegetables that are too energy dense are also banned:
- - pumpkin, avocado, artichoke hearts, and radishes.
Soft Forking
In this variant, the use of a knife during the preparation of the meal is permitted. But as soon as you sit down to eat, you forget about it and use only a fork. Some foods that are forbidden in the strict version are allowed here:
- - raw vegetables and salad
- - white meat, cut up beforehand
- - shellfish
