Green Smoothies - first thing in morning instead of coffee or glass of milk. Remember - no sugar, only fruits. Have it all fresh and it takes less than 10 minutes. Best is to replace your breakfast with green smoothies. And drink your smoothies slowly sip-pause-sip. Take half an hour to drink 1 glass. Recipe
2. Whole food plant based - many diets come and go. Whole food plant based (WFPB) diet is not a fad or a trend. It is holistic and curative in nature. If you are serious about weight loss, you will have to change the perspective on healthy food. For eg, eggs, dairy, meat is not healthy. Animal products have growth hormones, residual antibiotics and higher concentrations of other toxic compounds found in food chain. Simply avoid them. If you haven't tried plant based diet yet, then it is the time to. And yes, WFPB meals can be as delicious as any other meal. Recipes
3. Fifty % raw - Oh dear, you don't like raw. I don't believe you. Avocados, cucumber, tomatoes, lettuce, carrots, fruits, nuts..... all these are eaten raw. We don't cook them always. And we are not asking you to eat raw potatoes or rice. Eat raw whatever you like, but eat it more....a lot more....enough more so that it is almost your 50% of diet. Raw food has natural enzymes that improves the digestive system and help you absorb more nutrients. When nutrition is met, you feel less hungry. Replace half of your breakfast or lunch with fruits and half of your dinner with yummy salads. Remember the dressing of salad is not oil-based but healthy fat- based like nuts /avocado/ peanut.

4. Intermittent fasting - No its not dieting or eating less. It's eating but only during fixed hours. Our body is constantly digesting food and gets tired. Following this practice, digestive system gets a break and body is able to put its energy to restore and heal itself.
Best is to start with 13-14 hours fasting and slowly move to 16 hours of fasting. What does that mean? If you finished your dinner at 8, then next day the first food should not be before 10 am. This is fasting for 14 hours. Intermittent fasting shows best results when 16 hours of fasting is practiced. It is not hard. It just need gradual adjustments in your eating pattern and thinking pattern. Technique
