DO YOGA AND EXERCISE:

Limit intake of sugar and starch.  cut back on pasta, rice, potatoes, white bread and breakfast cereals. Corn, peas,sweet potatoes and very sweet fruits are loaded with carbs: eat instead papaya, apples and oranges.  

Limit the intake of biscuits, cakes, cookies,broenies and piles, deserts and sweets.  Instead of avoiding them totally, cut down their portions.  Keep healthy, low calorie snacks handy: low-calorie yoghurt, fresh fruit, unsweetened wholegrain biscuits, roasted channa or tofu/paneer.

Eat a balanced diet.  Combine food from all groups-cereals,pulses,milk/curd with liberal amounts of fruits and vegetables.  Control the consumption of meat/chicken/fish/eggs as well as fat/oil and sugar. Processed food, fast food and deserts/sweets should be indulged in only occasionally.

BALANCED DIET PART I

BALANCED  DIET:

At first step, write down everything you eat for a week.  The diary will mirror all that is good and bad about your food intake.  It will also help you to understand the unconcious triggers that make you eat the wrong food.

Eat about five small, frequent meals during the day rather than three big ones.  But don't eat anything in between these five meals.

Do not miss meals.  skipping meals causes sudden hunger pangs that lead to bingeing.  Eat when you are hunggry, not when you are bored.  Before putting anything in your mouth, ask yourself: Am I really hungry?  If the answer is no, put the food down.

Eat slowly. This stops you from eating before you load up excessively.  At any meal, stop eating before you are full.  Avoid second helpings- serve yourself food and keep the serving bowls away.
Don't eliminate the food you love.  Eat your favourite once in a while but only a small portion.
