I am doing diet and eating healthy but don't know when to speak
For e.g. if I am having poha for breakfast , I eat about 3 plates .my mind says it's healthy
But when I am eating chapati ,I can control myself after 2 chapatis .
@angeloak Make a diet chart , buy a weight machine for food (around rs 300 on Amazon) and promise yourself that u won't eat anything without measuring. I also eat Poha for breakfast but it's 35 gm of rice i measure before prep. Always measure food raw (before preparation)
@angeloak Good luck for your fitness journey. Also one imp to keep in mind is to take fitness as a lifestyle. Try to make your diet sustainable and exciting
@angeloak You need to use a calorie counter. Poha isn't any healthier than chappatis. Both are carb rich foods. Not that there's anything inherently wrong with carbs unless you're doing keto but calories are still calories and depending on your goals you need to start counting and setting your macros.
@angeloak You can reduce the portions and increase the serving count to trick your brain into believing you ate a lot, but I also don't see any problem with overeating lentils or whole grains as long as you remain active post eating
@angeloak I had a similar predicament, but what I've been recently doing is have a bowl which I will top once with rice and transfer it to a plate. This way I'm sure I'm not eating more than I should as I'm not really into counting calories n stuff
You can do it with poha, vermicelli upma and oats as well
