Stop worrying about your
weight, just eat right. Here are five tips you need to keep in mind.
Have a healthy breakfast
The cardinal rule to any weight loss programme
is never to miss breakfast. And oatmeal, a complex carbohydrate is ideal. It is
a satisfying breakfast cereal, and compared to any other grain it provides more
protein per serving. The fact that it takes longer to digest and hence releases
energy slowly makes it perfect because you feel full for longer. Oats also keep
blood sugar and insulin levels stable, which helps prevent fat storage. Have it
with skimmed milk or yogurt.
Opt for skimmed milk
Milk and its products are rich in calcium
and can help keep your bones strong. Skimmed milk, low fat cheese and yogurt
helps to break down fat cells.
Bean it
Foods that are high in fibre and are
good sources of protein, can help you feel full for a very long time. And that,
will help you control unnecessary bingeing. Protein has a very high satiety
index and that is why make proteins an essential part of your meals.
Go for the grain
Grains have complex carbohydrates
which during digestion release glucose slowly. Jowar, bajra and ragi etc can
help in maintaining your blood sugars levels. The fibre and vitamins in them
play an important role too.
Snack on nuts through
the day
Stay away from fried and salted nuts
but you can munch on raw, unsalted ones — almonds, and walnuts. These have
essential roughage, protein, fat, minerals and micro nutrient.
A handful can keep hunger at bay and provide
energy.
