Diet Menu : What to Eat to Lose Weight<\/strong><\/h1>\n

This question keeps coming back. Who wouldn\u2019t like to combine the useful with the enjoyable \u2013 that is to say, eating without depriving yourself while still losing weight? Dietitians have pondered this issue and provided us with answers that point us in the right direction. Generally speaking, it\u2019s best to break our meals or snacks up to ensure that our body has a regular intake to prevent our blood sugar levels from falling. The two watchwords, therefore, are: avoid eating too much and eat regularly. However, you shouldn\u2019t neglect physical activity either!<\/span><\/p>\n

A diet based on clear principles<\/span><\/h2>\n

The key to everything: motivation and a healthy diet! When starting a diet, it\u2019s best to be open to preparing food that will contribute to your success.<\/span><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t deprive yourself. Instead, choose nutritious foods and get moving! Remember that a balanced diet and a little working out will improve your metabolism. Between breakfast and dinner, you\u2019ll burn all your calories from the day. In the evening, therefore, opt for light meals, since you\u2019re less active at night! Vegetables and legumes, such as chickpeas or lentils, which are sources of protein and fibre and high in antioxidants, red kidney beans or black beans, and quinoa are ideal. Prepare soups or \u2013 better yet \u2013 broths. <\/span><\/p>\n

If you struggle to go without meat, choose lean meats, such as chicken or turkey. Make varied salads for yourself, focusing on dark leafy greens, which have more nutrients, and peppermint, which suppresses your appetite. However, pay attention to the dressings, which should remain light and absorbed in small quantities.<\/span><\/p>\n

While dried fruits are good for your health and your diet, it\u2019s best to avoid them at night, as they\u2019re too rich. Vanilla is also an appetite suppressant. A vanilla-scented candle or infusion will dissuade you from snacking on sweets after meals!<\/span><\/p>\n

Low-calorie foods with high nutritional value<\/span><\/h3>\n

As for drinks, green tea is recognized as a fat burner. That\u2019s not its only asset. Low in calories and high in fibre, it\u2019s also an antioxidant. In addition, it contains catechins, which burn fat and make it a diet partner of choice. Drink 4 to 6 cups a day and go for a walk. You\u2019ll be amazed!<\/span><\/p>\n

Certain foods are also success factors in your weight loss endeavour.<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  • Grains such as oats and barley, if they\u2019re whole grains, are a perfect accompaniment to losing weight. Dietitians recommend three portions of these per day. Along the same lines, flax seeds, which are high in lignans, garlic, dried apricot, sunflower seeds, and pistachios reduce body mass.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Low-fat dairy products provide you with calcium, a necessary and essential nutrient. If your calcium levels are low, your body will tend to retain fat so you don\u2019t lose it. A good calcium intake is an appropriate response to the cells in your body.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Fruits and vegetables such as apples, pears, peppers, onions, and leeks promote energy expenditure, much like green tea. Bursting with flavonoids, they effectively burn fat. Bananas are another appealing fruit due to their high potassium and carbohydrate content, which promotes energy, and their fibre, which suppresses the appetite. It\u2019s also a good antioxidant.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Fatty fish, especially sardines, help melt away fat. Excellent for your health, they\u2019re high in vitamins B12 and D (eat the thin edges!) and omega-3 fatty acids, but low in calories. They help cover a good portion of your energy needs. Salmon, mackerel, and tuna also help reduce body fat while filling you up.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Contrary to all expectations, dried fruits such as dried apricots and sources of protein such as almonds and walnuts promote the elimination of fat! They\u2019re high in fibre, but should nevertheless be consumed in small quantities.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Finally, eggs help protect your muscle mass thanks to their protein content. They also promote weight loss while filling you up.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Don\u2019t punish yourself with overly strict diets. The better you eat, the more weight you\u2019ll lose!<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
