Hi Can u use this diet chart Breakfast: A protein rich breakfast is a must. An experiment by the University of Missouri involving 20 overweight females between the ages of 18 and 20 proved that a high protein breakfast led to reduced cravings and they also snacked less on unhealthy foods. Moong dal parantha, sprouted moong with poha or upma, muesli or flakes with fruits and seeds or oats idlis, eggs in different forms, peanut butter sandwich with a glass of milk or fresh fruit juice. Mid-morning snack: Fruits with buttermilk or green tea. “Green tea increases fat burning and improves physical performance. It can lower your risk of Type 2 diabetes, risk of cardiovascular disease and help you lose weight and lessen your risk of obesity,” explains Singh. Lunch: Homemade dal or legumes, roti, veggies with soup and green salad and raita or curd. A healthy mix of carbs, proteins and fruits is good for you. ( Shutterstock ) Early-evening snack: Protein shake, nuts and seeds, veg sandwich or milk and apple. Researchers at Pennsylvania State University conducted a study which proved that nuts such as almonds have anti-cholesterol benefits and hence should be included in your diet. Dinner: Dal, veggies, with brown rice or roti and vegetable soup. And you should keep in mind that a light dinner is important, since the digestive system should get rest at night. There is no point depriving yourself of food. The mantra is to ‘Eat in moderation’. Indian homemade food can be the best diet plan. ( Shutterstock ) Use less oil or ghee in vegetables, dal, etc. Indian homemade food is the best dietary plan — roti, vegetables, poha, idli, buttermilk, coconut water are all excellent choices. Moderate amounts of rice, controlled portion of ghee daily and once a while homemade fried food such as puri, bhajiya and vada can be tried. These foods give you the energy your body needs. Avoid all junk foods, be it Indian or western. Samosas, kachori, pizza, donuts are all equally bad. Foods with added sugars, and processed foods that contain high amount of trans-fats should be avoided.

I would first check your Thyroid profile, Ser.VitD and serum cortisol. If the above tests are within limits. We can plan a diet and exercise plan.

resistance training/weight training is very good for you. Muscle is very important. indian women are genetically sarcopenic.(That is tend to lose muscle with age.)Muscle is also an endocrine organ.
