1. Calorie Deficit
The underlying concept of any weight loss. Read about it. Consume lesser than what your body expends.
Eating healthy with a calorie deficit helps keep full compared to eating junk with a calorie deficit.

2. Go Low on Carbs. Go High on Proteins (within limits).
When there aren’t enough carbs, the body uses the fat. Keep the carbs low so that the fat starts to burn.
I use @Myprotein or Egg Whites for the protein intake.

3. Identify low calorie/low carb ingredients.
Don’t focus on the dishes. Focus on the ingredients - Prepare new dishes by mix and match.
I use @healthifyme or @MyFitnessPal to track calories/macros intake.

4. Avoid Sugar. Biggest factor. Replace with Honey/Jaggery.
Avoid sugar completely. It’s not that difficult.
Keep the usage of Honey/Jaggery also to a minimum. Could spike sugar levels.
Use Listerine Mouthwash once in a while to beat sugar cravings.

6. Zero Calorie Drinks
Green Tea - Improves metabolism. 3 Glasses. Pick flavored.
Plain Soda (Carbonated Water) - Suppresses appetite.
Black Coffee (without sugar) - Reduces inflammation. Boosts energy due to caffeine. Have in moderation.
I love @BoltBrew Shots.

10. Control your ingredients. Avoid outside food.
Never go grocery shopping when you are hungry. You end up buying more non-necessary things.
Give away or hide junk food at home. Keep them away from your eyesight.

Gaining weight is easy.
Losing weight is difficult.
Sustaining it is even more difficult.
Once you lose weight, think about building sustainability.
