Nutritious Diet For Weight Loss And Better Health

Healthy mind rests in healthy body. Yes, this is a proven saying that if you have a fit and balanced body then only you will be at the charm and peace of your mind. To lose weight or shed off those extra pounds of fat, it is not at all necessary that one has to go on dieting and later starving, but, it actually means intaking a healthy and balanced diet, that contains sufficient amounts of all the nutrients required by us. As none of a single food is suffice of fulfilling all our requirements so, one should take a good variety of diet from across all the food groups, according to our daily needs and age. Different types of foodstuffs when taken together provide us with vitamins, minerals, salts, proteins, fibers etc. For maintaining a good and healthy body, one has to make a very wise choice regarding the food to be eaten and should also consume it with a happy mind.

Now lets schedule our menu for the most important plates of our day. After fasting for the whole night of about 6- 7 hours our body becomes almost empty. At this point of time we need to break up our fast and reenergize ourselves with a meal called as breakfast. But people with an intention to lose weight have a very fake belief that skipping their breakfasts will make them slim. Instead it will make you thaw on the next meal that you will take and you will probably do overeating and will finally end up putting on much more weight. But rightly saying one should take a very healthy breakfast and then if you are not in a mood you may skip the lunch.

Do not skip meals:

A nutritious breakfast comprises of stuffs like skimmed milk or yoghurt, boiled egg, cereals and oats, roasted and baked grain cookies, popcorn and of course fruits which are alone even more than enough to give you a delicious breakfast or lunch. People always give the excuse of running short of time for skipping their meals, but it is not so. In 10 minutes you can get yourself a sandwich of whole grain bread, with lots of tomatoes and cucumbers inside alongwith cheese or yoghurt instead of jellies and butter.

You can also have a ready to eat bowl of cereals or oat dipped in low fat, skimmed milk with fruits of your choice on the top. You can also do some preparation from last night like boiled eggs, sprouts or pulses etc. that will give you strength from within. Even for kids you can give a bowl of cut carrots, cucumbers, bananas or apples dipped in yoghurt or cream, which will be really worth.

There is a whole range of fruits like apples, avocados, peaches oranges grapes watermelon etc. They can form 60% of our diet any time. Fruits like oranges; sweet lemons and grapes are very good for losing weight. Apples, apricots and bananas give us minerals, vitamins and strength from deep within. Watermelon and peaches are good for beauty and are more effective in summer. For dinner you can always look forward to soups and pulses along with roasted chicken or leafy vegetables, thus keeping you full and fresh.
