The Sobchak diet is a diet based on the recommendation of Professor Shelton, who advocates separate meals. The main principle is not to combine products that differ in acidity. There are no forbidden dishes; you can eat almost everything, but only in the right combination.
The results of weight loss will be minus 5 kg in the first 2 weeks and up to 20 kg in 3 months of following the proposed diet. The diet is strict, difficult for the body to accept and can lead to exacerbation of chronic diseases.
The essence of the Sobchak diet
The Sobchak diet is based on the Shelton nutrition method - a doctor, professor, who created a unique meal plan based on the separate consumption of specific foods. He conducted a lot of research and came to the conclusion that it is strictly forbidden to mix alkaline foods with acidic ones in the diet, because this significantly slows down metabolic processes at the cellular level.
Dr. Shelton also emphasizes that you should not combine foods with completely different compositions in one plate. Because of this, the stomach will be overloaded, the digestive system will begin to function intermittently, which will lead to the addition of kilograms.
Shape Options
Ksenia Sobchak has almost ideal parameters, according to many of her fans: with a height of 173 cm, she weighs only 53 kg, chest volume - 86, waist - 63, hips - 85.
Advantages and disadvantages of the diet
The advantages of the diet followed by the TV presenter include:
- within the first 14 days you can get rid of 5 kg of excess weight;
- the full course lasts 3 months and during this period, with strict adherence to the rules and physical activity, you can lose 20 kg;
- the body adapts to the new diet gradually, which leads to improved well-being and increased performance;
- lack of hunger - the menu is varied, you will need to eat quite often;
- The functioning of the gastrointestinal tract is significantly improved - nutrients from food are completely absorbed, there is no lack of vitamins/minerals, and constipation is not a concern.
It is important to know that nutrition according to the Shelton method:
- does not imply a complete ban on the use of certain products;
- does not have a clear menu for every day - you can vary it, focusing on your own preferences;
- Suitable for people with kidney, liver and stomach diseases.
As for the shortcomings, there are none - this is what nutritionists say. The only negative is that you will need to get used to the new diet, because you will have to give up your usual food combinations. For example, Shelton categorically prohibits eating potatoes and meat together.
We recommend reading about the Kamensky diet. From the article you will learn about how Nastya Kamenskikh lost weight, her menu and recipes, fasting days and sports. And here is more information about the principles and results of the Belotserkovskaya diet.
Combination rules
Before starting a diet, you need to learn, remember and constantly apply the rules for combining foods:
- You cannot combine proteins and carbohydrates in one dish. In order for the process of digestion and assimilation of cereals, potatoes and sweet foods to begin, an alkaline environment is needed, and for the same, but in relation to meat, nuts, milk/dairy products, fruits, an acidic environment is needed. If the combination is incorrect, the digestion process is very slow and most nutrients are not absorbed.
- Foods of the protein group should not be combined with fats (metabolism slows down), acids (digestion is prolonged) and other proteins (for example, fish + eggs).
- Carbohydrates do not mix with acids because they inhibit the action of enzymes that are necessary for the breakdown and absorption of carbohydrates. So, it is not recommended to mix cereals with grapes or flour with oranges and apples.
- Melon, watermelon and milk are products that should not be combined with anything at all. Some nutritionists recommend completely abstaining from drinking milk, because in adults it is very difficult to digest and is practically not absorbed.
In general, the doctor believes that the simpler the product, the more beneficial it is. Shelton divided food into several main groups:
- proteins - mushrooms, nuts, lean animals, legumes;
- fats – sour cream, cheese;
- sweet fruits and berries;
- carbohydrates – cereals, potatoes, sugar;
- fruits and berries – unsweetened;
- incompatible products - watermelon, melon, milk;
- vegetables – green, sour, starchy, non-starchy.
According to the nutrition system that the TV presenter adheres to, there should not be more than 3 products on the plate at the same time.
Sports in Ksenia's life
Sports play a big role in the life of Ksenia Sobchak - she does it constantly:
- every morning begins with a run for 60 minutes;
- The TV presenter visits the gym 4 times a day and gets cardio exercises there;
- does yoga and Pilates.
Ksenia eats according to a menu that involves consuming only 1,500 kcal per day, and when playing sports she gets rid of 2,000 - this is the correct lifestyle for losing weight.
Television and journalism
The television biography of Ksenia Sobchak started in 2004. Then she, together with Ksenia Borodina, becomes the host of the famous reality show “Dom-2”. In 2012, the journalist decided not to renew her contract and left the project, giving way to Olga Buzova.
The year 2007 was successful in Sobchak’s initial singing career, when she starred with Timati in the “Dance” video; the same year the yellow press was full of photographs of the couple’s “warm” relationship. In 2010, Sobchak hosted the “Freedom of Thought” program on Channel Five. Then she participated in the program “Girls” on “Russia-1”, but left with a scandal due to the fact that “Russian women cannot laugh at themselves.”
In 2014, the presenter starred in the sketch show “Our Russia” as herself: in the story, famous migrant workers Ravshan and Dzhamshut were renovating her penthouse. In 2015, Ksenia became the face of the show “Battle of Restaurants” on the Friday TV channel.
Sobchak’s participation in a project of any direction and content is a guarantee of prime time, high ratings and a battle of commentators on social networks, observers note. And it doesn’t matter that the young woman has a trail of negativity trailing behind her. Thanks to her scandalous reputation, the character of Ksenia Sobchak is forever fixed in the Russian-language version of the game “World of Warcraft” under the nickname Psenia Kobchak, the main character of which is considered to be Haris Pilton (Paris Hilton).

Ksenia Sobchak in her youth in the show “Dom-2”
The Russian journalist and TV presenter was often compared to the American heiress of a business empire. Ksenia is offended by such parallels. By her own admission, she was a show business star 20 years ago, and now she is engaged in political journalism and writes serious articles.
For 5 years, Ksenia hosted the “Sobchak Live” program on the Dozhd channel. Famous guests were invited to the studio, including Vladimir Zhirinovsky and Alla Pugacheva, Scarlett Johansson and Ivan Okhlobystin, Timati, Milla Jovovich and others. The topic of discussion was the socio-political situation in the country, and the journalist managed to ask “uncomfortable” questions.
In addition, the socialite worked for 4 years as the editor-in-chief of the Russian edition of the French fashion magazine L`Officiel, Ksenia wrote a separate column for GQ magazine, and then became the director of special projects for the Snob website and the tabloid of the same name.
In the glossy publication SNC, the TV presenter published devastating articles about tastelessly dressed people, then received the position of editor-in-chief. In May 2021, Sobchak received the post of general producer of the Super channel.
What Ksenia does not consume
Professor Shelton himself does not indicate a list of foods prohibited for consumption while losing weight according to his system. But the TV presenter refused:
- sausages, including frankfurters, small sausages;
- smoked products - fish, meat, lard;
- Sahara;
- margarine, butter;
- mayonnaise and any other industrially produced sauces;
- canned products, including fish, canned meat and homemade pickles;
- sweet carbonated drinks, tea and coffee, cocoa;
- condensed milk;
- milk powder;
- fast food.
Prohibited foods
Ksenia prefers to use a minimum amount of salt, so she simply does not add salt to dishes/products. But this is not necessary for use if we are talking only about the Shelton diet.
Basic Rules
To get maximum results on the Sobchak diet, you should follow the following rules:
- Start the day by drinking 200-300 ml of clean water at room temperature. It is drunk in small sips; for taste, you can add a few slices of lemon and 1 teaspoon of honey.
- During the day, you can drink herbal infusions/decoctions, weak green tea, compotes and smoothies. They do not add sugar or other flavor enhancers.
- You shouldn’t completely give up desserts - a lack of glucose can lead to a gastronomic breakdown. Ksenia prefers curd mousse and fruit/berry jelly.
- After 18-00, eating should be stopped. If the night's sleep begins too late, then you can drink fruit juice 3 hours before, but it must be freshly prepared.
- While eating, you should completely avoid watching news on the phone, working on a laptop, or even talking. The calmer the meal, the faster the feeling of fullness comes.
- Eating should begin slowly, absorbing food in small pieces, each of which is thoroughly chewed.
- You cannot get up from the table with a feeling of fullness in your stomach. A slight feeling of hunger (“I could eat a couple more spoons”) is an indicator that after 5-10 minutes the brain will receive a signal of satiety.
Ksenia recommends keeping a diary where you write down all the products, their combination and the amount consumed per day. This will help control the amount of food and adjust it.
Movies and books
In addition to television projects, Ksenia Sobchak also has a filmography. The journalist's film debut took place in 2004 in the film “Thieves and Prostitutes.” Then the aspiring film actress appeared in the popular film “The Best Film,” the first film product of the TNT channel and Comedy Club, played the role of Hitler’s mistress in the comedy “Hitler Kaput” and other projects.
The famous TV presenter and interviewer writes books. In 2008, Ksenia presented the publication “Masks, glosses, curlers. The ABC of Beauty" and "Stylish Things of Ksenia Sobchak", in which she talked about styles in clothing and cosmetics. In 2009, co-authored with Oksana Robski, a unique guide “Marrying a Millionaire, or a Top-Class Marriage” appeared.
Another book in which Ksenia’s writing talent was demonstrated was “Encyclopedia of a Sucker.” This essay, like its author, also caused a storm of emotions and controversial criticism. Some admitted that here Sobchak showed herself to be a good satirist, while others in no way recommended the work for reading.

The creative activity of a popular TV presenter sometimes becomes less interesting to society than her talent for getting into high-profile scandals. In 2008, Sobchak got into an altercation with Mayak radio host Katya Gordon, as a result of which Alexander Gordon’s ex-wife was fired from the radio station.
Ksenia's conflict with ballerina Anastasia Volochkova has already entered a sluggish stage. Even the women themselves do not remember what caused the disagreement, but they continue to stubbornly publicly insult each other at every opportunity. According to rumors, they did not share the men; the names of oligarchs Suleiman Kerimov and Vyacheslav Leibman were mentioned on the Internet.
In 2013, Ksenia started a “cold war” with her former friend Tina Kandelaki. Colleagues suddenly had different ideas and plans for their future lives, disputes about which still pop up on social networks and on television to this day.
In 2015, a religious scandal involving Ksenia broke out. The Russian Investigative Committee for Moscow began an investigation into Sobchak because the journalist published a photo on Instagram dressed as a priest. The case of insulting the feelings of believers never took off.
An example of a menu and diet for different diets Sobchak
Since there are no prohibited foods, creating a menu is quite easy. You can choose one of three options - classic, long-term and macrobiotic.
Classical
The classic Sobchak diet involves 4 meals a day, eating a large amount of cooked foods and allowing snacks. This type of weight loss is designed for 21 days; there is no need to salt ready-made dishes (or during their preparation).
| Monday |
|
| Tuesday |
|
| Wednesday |
|
| Thursday |
|
| Friday |
|
| Saturday |
|
| Sunday |
|
This diet will help you lose weight in a short time. The menu can be changed at your discretion, but to achieve the desired results you will have to introduce physical activity into your daily routine.
Long lasting
The long-term diet is identical to the classic one, it is simply followed not strictly for 21 days, but for any amount of time, until the desired result is achieved. All meals for such weight loss should be light, lean; for dinner and breakfast you can cook boiled or stewed vegetables. If at first the proposed menu is difficult to perceive, then it can be “enriched” with sour cream, kefir and even whole milk, but in minimal quantities and consumed in the first half of the day.
During a long-term diet, you need to monitor your own well-being. The diet is low in calories, so chronic fatigue may develop. In this case, you need to seek help from a doctor, reduce the intensity of physical activity or slightly increase the caloric content of food.
Macrobiotic
The macrobiotic diet is strict, and it is advisable to carry out such a weight loss course under the supervision of doctors. What is meant by this method:
- half of the diet is cereals;
- 20% of the menu - vegetables, but only seasonal and steamed;
- 15% of the diet - fresh fruits and seafood;
- 15% - vegetable soups and nuts.
It is strictly forbidden to eat proteins, animal fats, tomatoes, exotic fruits, potatoes, coffee and alcoholic beverages. Food is taken in small (literally microscopic) portions and only in case of a strong, unbearable feeling of hunger.
The macrobiotic diet is very difficult for the body to accept; it is contraindicated even if there are minor problems in the functioning of the gastrointestinal tract. In addition, Ksenia herself complains that with such a limited diet, she managed to lose only 2 kg - and this in two weeks and with constant physical activity.
Political activity
Until a certain point, most people associated the name of Ksenia Sobchak exclusively with “yellow” scandals and “House-2,” until in 2006 the girl announced the creation of the youth movement “Everyone is Free!” According to Sobchak’s plan, the main goal of the organization was to be “a fun and relaxed struggle for rights,” but these plans remained unrealized.
Ksenia Sobchak adheres to liberal views
Ksenia Sobchak began to actively demonstrate her civic position in 2011. In December 2011, she actively rallied against the falsification of the Duma elections, in March 2012 she participated in the rally “For Fair Elections,” and on May 8, the girl, along with Alexei Navalny, was detained at the Nikitsky Gate. After this, her career as a presenter on state channels went downhill. First of all, she was excluded from the list of presenters of the Muz-TV anniversary award. In the summer of 2012, a search was carried out in Ksenia Sobchak’s apartment and significant sums of money were seized, but the investigation did not find anything illegal in the origin of the funds, so they were returned to the girl.

The experience Ksenia gained over the years of working on television helped in publicly expressing her political views. So, in 2012, the MTV-Russia channel aired the first episode of the talk show “The State Department with Ksenia Sobchak,” which was called “Where is Putin leading us?” It was attended by the coordinator of the “Left Front” Sergei Udaltsov, a member of the Solidarity movement Ilya Yashin and the head of the movement “In Defense of the Khimki Forest” Evgenia Chirikova. After the first episode, the show was closed by the channel's decision, although low ratings were announced as the official reason for the cancellation. Two weeks later, the first episode of the State Department-2 program was released as part of the online version of Snob magazine. Since February 2012, Ksenia Sobchak has regularly appeared on the Dozhd TV channel as the host of the author’s program “Sobchak Live.” Her studio was visited by many media personalities and political figures, with whom the girl discussed topical problems of society and the state. The first guest of her program was Gennady Zyuganov. Interview with Ksenia Sobchak Jen Psaki
How to get out of a diet
In general, Shelton’s nutrition principle can be taken as a basis and constantly maintain the recommended diet. But if the goal is achieved, then you need to exit the diet wisely:
- introduce each “new” product no more than once every 2 days and in minimal quantities;
- drink a lot of clean water;
- Do not start eating fatty meat.
Contraindications to this method of losing weight
The Sobchak diet is not suitable for everyone, because it is low in calories. Moreover, some doctors consider such separate nutrition even harmful - without mixing carbohydrates/fats/proteins in the stomach, it is impossible to fully absorb nutrients from food. Therefore, people with the following health problems should not lose weight using the Shelton diet:
- obesity 2-3 degrees;
- pathologies of the heart and vascular system;
- recovery period after any surgical intervention;
- disturbances in the functioning of the hormonal/endocrine system;
- menopause in women;
- diseases of the digestive system;
- any chronic diseases of internal organs in the acute stage.
You should not eat in the proposed way during periods of bearing a child and breastfeeding, in childhood and old age.
We recommend reading the article about Selezneva’s diet. From it you will learn about the advantages of the method, dietary requirements, drinking regimen, permitted and prohibited foods, and diet menu for every day. And here is more information about Jasmine’s simple and effective diet.
The Sobchak diet is very effective, but difficult for the body to accept. Gastronomic breakdowns often occur on it, the psycho-emotional background will be disturbed in those losing weight, and insomnia may develop. And this together slows down the metabolism and stops the process of weight loss.
