Weight loss does not necessarily mean starving or not eating
anything at all. There are a number of diets which include certain foods
that will help you lose weight. These weight loss foods are tasty and
do not let you feel disheartened at having to stop eating all that you
always liked.
There are a number of weight loss foods which
contain fewer calories and are tasty. They also do not contain too much
fat. Some foods are rich in fiber, some take longer to eat and thus you
consume lesser amount of calories per gram. The following foods can be
consumed while you plan losing weight:
1. Sprouted pulses: Sprouted pulses contain fiber and vitamins. Raw sprouts help you in slimming. Sprouts can be made from pulses like moong, rajma, dried peas and broad beans. Moong does not take too much time in sprouting and tastes good raw. There are only 140 calories in a 50 gram serving.
2. High Fiber Cereals: There are certain cereal based foods which help to fill you up but with comparatively lower intake of calories. These would include roasted corn on the cob, chapattis, idlis, white rice upmas and dhoklas. You could also eat poha, rice wheat, oats or cornflakes which contain lower levels of sugar. Eat cornflakes with skimmed milk and if you like them sweet, you could add some freshly chopped fruits.
3. Potatoes: This is something you were never expecting to be a part of this list. But in fact, the problem is not potatoes but the way they are cooked. It is obvious that you will put on weight if you are eating French fries, fried potatoes. However, if you eat baked or boiled potato without any fatty foods, it will help you in losing weight. You could mash them and sprinkle some pepper on top. You could also reduce the amount of fat and calories by making french fries in the microwave. There are only 97 calories in potatoes. Sweet potatoes have more calories than potatoes. When boiled, they have a rich taste and creamy texture.
4. Chocolate bar: There may be times when you feel like binging. To avoid such situations, you should remember to indulge yourself once in a while. A 20gram chocolate bar won't do too much harm if you are taking care of the other things. But remember that the bar should be as small as the size of a 5 star and it's better and less risky than ice creams and cakes since it is individually packaged.

This leads to a stronger flow of blood, a better heart beat, which widens the blood vessels and allows the blood to pass more easily, relieving pressure.Jessica S. Williams
