Attention slimmers; an extreme new diet fad has hit our shores, but it’s not one we’ll be trying out in a hurry.
The monomeal diet involves eating just one type of raw fruit or veg for every meal.
Devotees believe eating monomeals gives the digestive system a break and helps the body to recognise when it is satiated, preventing overeating.
If the monomeal in question was chips, pizza or chocolate, then we believe we’d fare pretty well but somehow, a dinner based entirely on broccoli or a banana-packed lunch doesn’t exactly appeal.
In any case, here are some monomeal breakfast, lunch and dinner shots for your amusement…
A brunch of bananas?
What about a nice bowl of cauliflower for tea?
Would watermelon keep you going ’til 5pm?
With a delicious squash for dinner later…
AND as many apples as you can cram in for dessert!
