Do you start lunch with soup and dinner with meat and a side dish?
If you are not on a diet, then this approach is correct.
But if you want to get rid of excess weight, then it is advisable to start your meal with a low-calorie, but at the same time satiating food.
We are talking about a vegetable salad.
Why you should start lunch and dinner with a salad
The fact is that a mixture of chopped vegetables fills the stomach perfectly and does not pose any danger to the figure.
Thanks to the “salad” start, a person will get rid of the feeling of hunger even before starting to eat the main dish.
As a result, to be completely satisfied you will need a very small portion of soup/pasta/porridge.
In such conditions, the process of losing weight is significantly simplified.
By the way, to achieve the same goal, you should drink a glass of water before lunch or dinner.
"Requirements" for vegetable salad
The dish should be as light as possible. There is no need to season the mixture of chopped vegetables with mayonnaise or sour cream.
It is better to limit yourself to adding lemon juice and a very small amount of mustard.
In addition, you should not add cheese or other high-calorie ingredients to the salad.
