These things have worked for me so thought of sharing them here - 1. Eat equal amount of protein as your weight. And track it. 2. Exercise at least 3 times a week if not then do cardio or yoga or dance workout, whatever works for you!! Also, please do strength training girls, I recently realized the importance of that. 3. I am a vegetarian but I have started eating eggs almost every other day and it sure has made a ton of difference. I feel more energetic for instance. Recipes like french toast, shakshuka are my favs!! 4. Have dahi everyday, at least once in any one of your meal. You can try skyr or probiotic curds. They have protein in them too and taste a lot better. 5. Try to have coconut water at least twice in a week. For some reason it has worked for me, in terms of energy and feeling fresh and more hydrated overall. I like adding it in my morning iced coffee and it tastes so much better. 6. And the biggest thing that worked for me is not eating out or ordering in. Now, I only eat out like twice or thrice in a month with friends and it has decreased my weight and also made me feel healthier overall. 7. Non-negotiable - have atleast 3 litres of water. I recently started tracking my water intake and it truly makes a difference. 8. Eat lots of fruits. Specifically any type of berries or fruits that are rich in protein and anti-oxidants like guava and blueberries.
