Junk food during weight loss

Importance of fruits during weight loss:
Dhruv shared a picture of a fruit bowl that he consumed every day. Fruits are an excellent way of adding the necessary nutrients and fibres to the body. It helps in keeping the body satiated, boost immunity and support the weight loss journey.
Dhruv emphasised that to lose weight, it is not important to stop having the food items that we like. It is important to maintain a healthy balance and be consistent through the process. Also read | Woman shares she lost 10 kg by eating these 6 high-protein, vegetarian dishes for breakfast daily
Portion control: is it important?
In an earlier interview with HT lifestyle, Ruchi Sharma, certified nutritionist and founder of ‘EAT FIT REPEAT’ spoke of the importance of portion control, especially when we are trying to shed the extra kilos. “Bulking your meal up with vegetables and fibre is an effective way of cutting on calories as they are high-volume foods with minimal calories while making you feel full. For example, you can use a whole multigrain roti instead of plain bread,” she said.
