MELT     THAT     FAT
Simple changes make a big difference. Losing weight can be tricky business. Small changes in your menu as recommended by us can make you feel full but actually see that those extra pounds melt away.

  • Toss in a few Salads
    Image Want a quick and nutritious meal? Chill out with a refreshing, salad. Low-calorie tomatoes, cucumbers, lettuce provide an excellent crunchy treat. However, leave the culprit out - salad dressing. Try using flavoured vinegars. Stock up a variety of low and non-fat salad dressing.


  • Water
    Say no to the refreshing cold drinks, stick to plain water and have plenty of it. It not only replenishes lost liquids and fills you up, but also diminishes your hunger level and unlike sodas, nourishes your body.

  • Join the Grill Gang
    Cooking on the grill not only saves time but also introduces a refreshing way of cutting out the fats used while cooking.

    Simple and Quick Soups
    This premeal food is the simplest way to cut on bulky food. Studies have proved that people who have consumed soups before meals lost more weight than people who didn't have any soups. The high water content making it very filling.

  • Fresh Fruits
    Image Fresh seasonal fruits can actually help your body melt away fat. Fruits likes watermelons, berries, papayas are sweet and water dense, too, so you fill up fast and stay satisfied longer. Fresh fruits and vegetables are also low in sodium, which helps you avoid fluid retention and after-meal bloat.

  • Mini-Meals
    Eating five or six mini-meals throughout the day, will keep your insulin (fat-making hormone) level steady. Be it a simple sandwich or a bowl of fresh salad or simple butter-milk (made of low fat milk, naturally), they can help ward off habit of the big binches at the traditional two meal sessions. Break away from the traditional sandwiches with butter and try quick variations in them.
