DIET DESSERTS
Diet desserts do exist. The main thing is not to confuse business with pleasure, and not to get carried away with sweet dishes, because not a single healthy nutrition system considers them the basis of the diet. No matter how low-calorie your sweets are, try to stick to the norm - no more than one sweet dish a day if you are physically active, or one or two desserts a week if you have not yet become friends with sports. Well, the basic rule of dessert diets sounds something like this: “Do not combine fat and sugar in one dish, use only natural products, if possible, add sources of protein, and do not overeat.” So, let's learn how to cook the right sweets.
Where to buy dietary products?
At home, you don’t always have time to prepare dietary meals - that’s not a problem. You can choose and order healthy food online on the Internet: in Utkonos stores, 4fresh.
There are also prepared food stores: Grow Food, Gym Meal, General Food, Just Food and others. They bring dishes according to a menu compiled by a nutritionist with calorie counts. You can look for healthy food in vegetarian and organic food stores.
You can lose 15 kg in a month only on very strict mono-diets. But all of them are not complete, they expose the body to stress and often do more harm than good. Proper nutrition is a mindset for life. By using dietary products in your diet, you can forget not only about excess weight, but also about many chronic diseases.

I was especially depressed by my weight; at 41, I weighed as much as 3 sumo wrestlers combined, namely 92 kg. How to completely lose excess weight? How to cope with hormonal changes and obesity? But nothing disfigures or makes a person look younger than his figure.
But what can you do to lose weight? Laser liposuction surgery? I found out - no less than 5 thousand dollars. Hardware procedures - LPG massage, cavitation, RF lifting, myostimulation?

Sweets for weight loss
Sweets are prohibited when losing weight, as they contribute to rapid weight gain and a decrease in metabolic rate. But this effect is caused only by carbohydrate sweets. Since they are digested for a long time and are not eliminated from the body for a long time, which causes digestion to slow down. But there are low-carbohydrate compounds that are well absorbed by the body and do not lead to the appearance of fat deposits.
However, they also cannot be overused, since excessive use can still affect the figure.
Those who are not particularly concerned about their figure should also not overindulge in goodies, as excessive consumption affects the health and condition of the skin. Because what a person eats directly affects his physical and mental health.

The healthiest sweets for losing weight
Pampering your body with treats is sometimes beneficial.
For sweets to be beneficial, they must be eaten in the first half of the day (morning), not immediately after eating, but an hour later.
It is very useful to replace sweets with berries and fruits. You should avoid high-calorie bananas, persimmons and grapes, and instead take pears, apples, apricots, peaches, and citrus fruits. A very small amount of watermelon, melon, and mango is acceptable.
By taking up to 500 g of berries daily, you can lose up to 3 extra kg per month. Honeysuckle, raspberries, currants, cherries, blueberries, and strawberries are considered beneficial. Sugar is almost always replaced with honey. This very useful product improves metabolism. Up to 2 tbsp is allowed daily. l. honey to increase energy production.
Candied and dried fruits
You can consume candied fruits and dried fruits in very small quantities when losing weight. The first are dried pieces of fruit coated in sugar. You can eat no more than 20-25 g of them per day, choosing healthy citrus fruits, apple or pumpkin slices, because the calorie content of the product is about 215 kcal per 100 g.
A small handful of dried fruits (dried apricots, raisins, prunes, figs) will replace a snack. They are high in fiber, which supports digestion, vitamins and minerals. Calcium, iron, magnesium and sodium ensure normal functioning of the body.
Marshmallow
Natural marshmallows contain apple pectin, agar-agar and a minimum of sugar. The sweets have almost no fat, but a lot of fiber. You can eat 1 piece per day, dividing it into two doses. You need to choose a product with a minimum amount of chemical ingredients.
Pastila and marmalade
The composition of apple marmalade contains pectin and there is almost no fat. Pectin is a natural product obtained from apples, therefore it removes waste and toxins from the body. If the component is replaced with agar-agar (a substance from seaweed), then the marmalade will be doubly useful. Agar-agar swells and reduces appetite. You can take 25-30 g of marmalade daily.
Pastille also consists of agar-agar, marmalade mass, molasses, and syrup. If it is made from apples, then it is suitable for the diet. In small quantities, marshmallows are good for skin, nails and hair. It saturates the body with fiber and keeps you feeling full for a long time. You can consume 1-2 small plates daily.
Black chocolate
Natural dark chocolate is a leader in the content of cocoa beans, which help cope with depression, normalize blood pressure during hypotension, strengthen the cardiovascular system and improve the overall functionality of the body.
You are allowed to take 30 g of chocolate per day subject to physical activity and 10-15 g with a passive lifestyle.
Diet sweets from the store that you can eat while losing weight
When choosing sweets in a store, you should pay close attention not so much to the minimum number of calories, but to the fat it contains. This is due to the fact that if the excess energy can still be used up, the fat folds will remain for a long time.
So, acceptable sweets include:
- berries and fruits - when choosing these products, the main emphasis is on knowing their glycemic index. Fruits and berries with a glycemic index of less than 50 are desirable. They will not harm the diet and will promote weight loss;
- marmalade is the lowest calorie sweet product. There are only 250 kcal per 100 grams. It is quite appropriate during a diet in the first half of the day in a small volume;
- marshmallow – consists of apple pectin and egg white. When properly prepared, its calorie content does not exceed 300 kcal per 100 g. Consumption is allowed in small quantities before 16.00;
- ice cream – you need to opt for a simple form without fillers or additives. The best option is considered to be a delicacy prepared at home from low-fat milk with the addition of berries. Acceptable limits – 2 times a week, 100 g;
- biscuits - these dietary sweets are also allowed, since they are prepared on the basis of water, flour, salt, sugar and corn starch;
- dark chocolate – helps cope with depression and normalizes blood pressure. A daily norm of 30 grams is considered acceptable if you lead an active lifestyle, and otherwise 10 - 15 grams;
- dried fruits - dried apricots, raisins, prunes, figs, dried cherries. A high level of fiber can dull the feeling of hunger for a long time, and slow carbohydrates provide a sufficient level of energy. In this case, nothing is deposited in fat. The optimal dose is 3-4 prunes, 3 dried apricots, 2 figs, 70 grams of pears or 100 grams of apples per day;
- candied fruits - given the fact that all dried fruits undergo heat treatment, they have a much higher glycemic index than fresh fruits, so their consumption should be limited to 40-50 grams per day;
- marshmallow - in addition to pectin and egg white, honey is also added here, so its calorie content is higher than that of marshmallows. Only 320 kcal per 100 grams, this means that you can eat marshmallows in very small quantities;
- berry or fruit jelly - this dessert is rich in gelatin, which makes it beneficial for muscles, tendons and ligaments;
- desserts made from low-fat cottage cheese. Adding dried or candied fruits will help add variety; sprinkling with dark chocolate or crushed nuts is allowed. Raspberries, cranberries or cherries go harmoniously with cottage cheese. Using this product you can prepare soufflés, mousses, puddings or casseroles;
- rye gingerbread - given the high content of carbohydrates in their composition, you should not get carried away with them, because 100 g contains 350 kcal;
- halva - no more than a teaspoon or a small piece is allowed if you have a strong desire to eat sweetness.
As for marmalade, marshmallows, oatmeal cookies and muesli bars, it is better to include such sweets in your diet in the first half of the day and in small quantities. Oatmeal cookies can be considered the most harmless for your figure.
How to eat sweets while losing weight
Anyone can prepare dietary sweets when losing weight. The recipes are varied and delicious.
During a diet, many people give up sweets first. But this is wrong, since prolonged restriction inevitably leads to breakdowns.
You need to listen to your desires and learn to satisfy them in a way that is safe for your figure.
According to nutritionists, people gain weight not from the sweet foods themselves, but from their quantity. Weight gain is also influenced by the time of consumption of desserts and the conditions under which a person eats them.
Carbohydrates contained in sweet foods enter the bloodstream after consumption. Then the blood sugar level increases.
The hormone insulin distributes carbohydrates in the body. Some of the glucose remains in the blood, some goes to glycogen, and some is stored as fat. If you learn to eat sweets correctly, you can avoid fat deposits.
What you need to do to eat desserts and lose weight:
- Consume desserts in small doses to prevent weight gain. Thus, you should eat no more than 70 g of simple carbohydrates per meal. This amount is easily absorbed by the body without consequences for the figure.
- Know the prerequisites for proper absorption of carbohydrates. To convert carbohydrates into glycogen, the body must have a need for it.
- Glycogen stores must be depleted. There should be a low blood sugar level. It decreases if it is not replenished for a long time. This occurs after sleep, physical activity and at the end of the working day.
Be careful! There are many dessert products sold in stores that contain fats (margarine, trans fats, palm oil). They are very poorly digestible and have a high calorie content.
It is better to prepare your own dietary sweets when losing weight. Homemade recipes are available in large quantities today.

Strawberry marshmallows made from kefir and Greek yogurt
Classic marshmallows are an elegant and, oddly enough, healthy treat. It is prepared from apple pectin, which is why children and women who are losing weight are allowed to eat it. But I found an interesting recipe online for homemade marshmallows made from kefir with the addition of gelatin. I modified it a little and prepared a treat for myself, and slightly diversified the desserts for my family.
Of the products we will need:
- kefir (I had 1%) – 700 ml.,
- Greek yogurt (can easily be replaced with sour cream) 3 tablespoons
- strawberries (I used frozen) 200 g.
- gelatin 2 tablespoons,
- sugar - 1 glass.
Cooking method:
- Initially, I defrosted the strawberries and completely drained the excess liquid. Then I soaked the gelatin in warm water for 20-30 minutes and left until it swells.
- Start whisking kefir and sugar with a whisk (or mixer). After 4 minutes, add one spoonful of yogurt (or sour cream) and beat the mixture for 7-8 minutes. Then I added strawberries to the mixture. You can grind it in advance or continue to beat the mixture with a blender.
- When the gelatin increased in size, I placed it in a water bath and brought it to complete dissolution. It should come out liquid.
- After cooling it a little, literally for a minute, I slowly poured it into the kefir-strawberry mixture and stirred.
- When the marshmallows froze, I cut them into squares and gently took the dessert out of the silicone molds. Served with berries and fruits.
The end result of this dessert is so tender and airy that it simply melts in your mouth! Be sure to try it, you won’t regret it!

bitter chocolate
It is a drink with a calorie content that is similar to that of other types of chocolate. There are about 500 kilocalories per hundred grams of product. Dark chocolate contains a much larger amount of cocoa powder than other types. The composition of this sweet includes theobromine and caffeine.
A healthy, tasty fructose-based treat. It is different from regular white or gray sugar. Natural honey does not contain glucose. Thus, the use of this product does not provoke an increase in insulin for the absorption of the treat. But when consuming honey, you must remember that fructose is a simple, not a complex carbohydrate. In order not to harm your figure, you must refrain from abusing this product. It is recommended to eat no more than 8 grams per day.
Dried fruits and candied fruits
They have the most diverse glycemic index. Therefore, when choosing this delicacy, you should take into account that dates and raisins have a glycemic index similar to that of sugar. Heat treatment makes this indicator of delicacies higher than that of fresh fruit. The permissible daily dosage of this product is from 40 to 50 grams.
It should be noted right away that we are talking exclusively about properly prepared delicacies. Real marshmallows are made from two ingredients - egg white and apple pectin. Sweetness without any foreign impurities or substitutes has a relatively average calorie content. There are no more than 300 kilocalories per hundred grams.

Features of preparing dietary desserts
It's hard to know what sweets you can eat on a diet. To navigate among the many recipes, use the following recommendations:
- Switch to carbohydrate-free sweets. Eliminate or minimize “short” carbohydrates. Sugar and refined fructose are not suitable for diet desserts for those losing weight.
- Avoid dishes that contain fats in addition to “short” carbohydrates. Their calorie content may be low, but such desserts will not benefit the body.
- It is advisable to use not whole eggs, but only whites for cooking. However, many dietary recipes do not take this into account.
- If you are preparing low-calorie sweets, use fruits and dairy products as a basis. It is not necessary that the fat content of cream, sour cream, yogurt, milk, and cottage cheese be minimal. The taste of dietary desserts for weight loss does not benefit from this. Products with medium fat content are suitable.
- The fact that desserts are dietary does not mean that you are allowed to eat them in unlimited quantities at any time of the day. Eat no more than 150 grams of sweet food. It is advisable to do this in the morning.
- Diet sweets will not help you lose weight if you do not adhere to the principles of proper nutrition.
