Eating a healthier diet does not mean you have to stop eating food that you enjoy. It means choosing the healthier options available in your food. All we need to do is balance out each category of food i.e. protein, fat, carbohydrates, fibre, vitamins, and minerals in our diet. Changing our eating habits and having plenty of water makes a lot of difference. In very less time the result is obtained without starving or over-exercising.
Adding colourful salads enhance the mood of eating something healthy so add more salads in your lunch… it will help reduce the intake of carbs and still make you full. Keep a watch on the calorie intake during the day. Limit food which is high in calories and low in nutrients. The best practice is to cut your food intake into small portions. Most recommended style is eating three meals and two small snacks each day. Also is it good to avoid eating after dinner? Late-night eating is the biggest culprit of weight gaining.
Leafy greens are low in calories and loaded with fibre. It’s a good idea to add them to your salads. Having food which is low in carbs and high in fibre is the key to weight loss as well as good health. Beans and lentils are also rich in protein and fibre which can help in weight loss.
