However, there are several foods, which when substituted in a weight loss diet with other low calorie alternatives facilitate quicker and better results. So here we have put together a few things that you can swap with your regular diet food.
Apples
An apple a day keeps the bulging fat away. This crispy tasty fruit is high on satiety index and is known to cure those untimely hunger pangs, thus ultimately contributing to slimming. Rich in fibres and flavonoids, it eases fat digestion and gives essential nutrients to the body. And the best part is, it’s available in almost all seasons.
Cabbage
This green leafy vegetable in your fridge is the only thing you can eat without caring to measure your portions. Eat it raw, as a mince or cooked in different styles, it is tasty, healthy and filling.
Our tip: make a soup, stalk or salad with this veggie for a fuller tummy.
Oats
Guess what? Mum was right when she said breakfast cannot be missed, especially by people on a weight loss diet. And there is no better breakfast dish than a bowl of oats and milk. Packed with fibre and protein and the added calcium from milk, make it the best breakfast in the world. And you would be more mindful of what you pick for lunch as given to the high satiety you wouldn’t be devouringly hungry.
Our tip: if you don’t have enough time for cooked oats every morning, try mixing it with dry fruits, fruit juice, fresh fruit pieces the night before and refrigerating it.
