How to eat diet dinner?
Chen Baifang, a nutritionist at Xiao Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital of Beijing Normal University Union Hospital, pointed out that you should still pay attention to the balanced nutrition of dinner when losing weight. You can eat less, but not all. It is common for people to eat nothing for dinner to lose weight, which is not only difficult to maintain, but also easier to get fat when they are hungry and crazy. In addition, there may be problems such as insomnia and constipation.
It is suggested that when you lose weight, you should eat 7 minutes full at dinner, accounting for about 30 ~ 35% of the calories needed for a day. Suppose you plan to eat 1500 calories a day when you lose weight, and about 450 ~ 525 calories for dinner.
The main meal can avoid polished rice, flour, bread and so on. And choose whole grains such as brown rice, sweet potatoes and potatoes. Strengthen the nutrient density and phytochemicals beneficial to the body by ingesting natural original ecological food. In addition, avoid greasy and spicy food and eat it 3-4 hours before going to bed.
If you feel uncomfortable at first and still feel hungry before going to bed, you can eat tomatoes, guava, apples and other fruits with a low glycemic index less than your fist. The best way is to go to bed early instead of staying up late, so that you won't have the idea of eating midnight snack again, which will add more variables to the road to losing weight.
