Pre-Breakfast: The Power of Gond Katira

Ever heard of Gond Katira? It's a natural gum with some amazing benefits! It aids digestion, is a good source of fiber, and is beneficial for your joints. Plus, it promotes a feeling of fullness and can help prevent constipation.

How do you prepare it? Soak ¼ teaspoon of Gond Katira in a cup of water overnight. In the morning, just stir and drink it on an empty stomach.

Breakfast Options

Let's get to the good stuff: breakfast! Here are a few "cool" options for the warmer months:

1. Mango Milkshake

   • Ingredients: 80g mango, 1 tsp sugar or honey, 200ml low-fat milk, stevia (to taste), and ice. You can order a kitchen scale online if you need one.
   • Instructions: Blend all the ingredients together. Add more stevia and ice to taste.

2. Jau (Barley) Roti with Yogurt

   • Ingredients: Half a jau roti and 10 tablespoons of plain yogurt (without cream).
   • Instructions: Simply eat the roti with the yogurt. You can make a raita (yogurt dip) but avoid adding sugar. Use stevia if you like.

3. Besan (Gram Flour) or Oat Chilla

   • Ingredients: 3 tablespoons of besan or oats, lots of vegetables (excluding potatoes), and oil for brushing.
   • Instructions: Mix the besan/oats with water and vegetables to form a batter. Cook on a non-stick pan with a light brushing of oil. Serve with 3-4 tablespoons of raita.

4. Conventional Breakfast

   • Ingredients: Two slices of bran bread, one egg (with lots of vegetables), and tea (with minimal milk and no sugar or stevia).

5. Oats Porridge

   • Ingredients: 3 tablespoons of oats, water, 150ml low-fat milk, strawberries (or half an apple/banana), and 1 tsp sugar or honey.
   • Instructions: Cook the oats in water. Add milk, fruit, and a sweetener.

Pick whichever option sounds best to you!

The Importance of a Post-Milkshake Egg

Why an egg after the milkshake? About 15-20 minutes after your breakfast drink, eat a boiled egg as a great source of protein. Protein helps you feel full and supports your muscles.

Mid-Morning Snack: Fruit Fiesta!

Around 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM, it's time for a snack. Grab 200 grams of any fruit you like! There are no restrictions here. If you can't find fresh mangoes, frozen mangoes are a great option.

Lunch Options

Lunchtime is around 2:00 PM. Let's focus on fresh and healthy choices.

1. Salad + Legumes

   • Ingredients: A big raw vegetable salad and 1 cup of boiled black chickpeas (or red kidney beans/corn).
   • Instructions: Combine your salad with your choice of legume. If you're using canned corn, rinse it to remove any extra syrup.

2. Grilled/Air-Fried Chicken Shammi Kababs

   • Ingredients: 2-3 homemade chicken shammi kababs.
   • Instructions: Grill or air-fry the kababs until they're cooked through.

3. Dal (Lentils)

   • Ingredients: 3-4 tablespoons of cooked dal.
   • Instructions: Cook the dal with as little oil as possible. You can add more water to make a larger portion.

Evening Snack

Between 5:00 PM and 6:00 PM, choose one of these options:

1. Milk or Yogurt

   • Ingredients: 1/4 liter of milk or 10 tablespoons of yogurt (without cream).

2. Fruit (Again!)

   • Ingredients: 200 grams of fruit (but avoid bananas, mangoes, and grapes this time).

These snacks help you stay full until dinner without ruining your progress.

Tea Time

Around 6:30 PM, enjoy a cup of green tea or regular tea with very little milk (and only 1 tsp of sugar or stevia).

Dinner Options

Dinner should be between 7:00 PM and 8:00 PM. It's important to have a comforting meal for better sleep.

1. Roti/Rice with Curry

   • Ingredients: Half a khushk roti (dry roti, without ghee/oil) or 12 tablespoons of rice (boiled or low-oil biryani/pulao) and 200 grams of saalan (curry, excluding potato-based curries).
   • Important Note: Keep the oil content in the curry as low as possible!

2. Baked Fish/Chicken with Bread

   • Ingredients: One slice of whole wheat/bran bread and 200-250 grams of baked fish or 200 grams of grilled chicken.

3. Cold Cuts

   • Ingredients: About 150 grams of cold cuts.

Late-Night Snack

If you're up late and feeling hungry, have some strawberries, falsa, or a measuring cup of watermelon.

The Walking Rule

Exercise is key! Aim for a 30-minute walk before breakfast AND a 30-minute walk before dinner. If you can, try to increase the intensity of your workouts.

The Oil Caveat

This is super important: reduce your oil intake! Too much oil can completely undo the benefits of this diet plan. Weight loss requires a calorie deficit, which is difficult to achieve if you're consuming a lot of oil.

The Hydration Hack

Drink plenty of water! Aim for 8-10 glasses of water per day. Staying hydrated helps you feel full and avoid unhealthy snacking. It creates a feeling of fullness, so you aren't tempted to reach for unhealthy foods.

Conclusion

Give this diet plan a try and share your results in the comments! Hopefully, it'll help you reach your goals.

Additional Considerations

Remember to adapt the plan based on the availability of ingredients in your region and try to prepare meals in advance to avoid impulsive, unhealthy choices.
