To lose weight, you just need to reduce the calorie content of your diet.

The techniques described in this article will help you with this.

Eat more protein

Protein-containing products are not only tasty, but also healthy. We need this nutrient for healthy growth and regeneration of body cells, building muscle mass.

And protein is also great at eliminating hunger and reducing cravings for unhealthy foods - this is enough to understand that with an increase in the proportion of protein in the diet, its calorie content will decrease.

Vegetable protein is found in legumes and tofu, and animal protein is preferably obtained from lean meats, dietary fish, cottage cheese, yogurt and egg whites.

Don't watch TV while eating

The habit of having breakfast, lunch and dinner, comfortably seated in front of the TV, leads to the fact that the number of calories consumed only increases. And all because people who are carried away by what is happening on the screen do not monitor the portion size, and the feeling of satiety comes to them later.

Replace the plates

Instead of a standard plate, the diameter of which reaches 30 cm, get a dish with a diameter of 25 cm. As a result, you will eat 20-25% less food.

Cook your own food

If you don't want to go overboard with calories, eat only food that you've prepared yourself. According to the research, the calorie content of food in catering establishments is often higher than what's listed on the menu.
