As many nutritionists would say, losing weight is 70% about right nutrition and 30% about adequate exercise.

This is untrue, and to inspire such people, we list out some lip-smacking recipes that are also high on the health quotient.

Breakfast

Start your day with a healthy shake. This will not only keep you full for longer but also ensure that you get all the benefits of papaya, orange and banana. This is an anti-cholesterol shake which means that it is good for your heart as well.

Lunch

If you are a non vegetarian, you can opt for a healthy chicken stew. This dish also consists of a lot of veggies so you get their nutrients too. If you are a vegetarian, you can make chana soya masala. It is a low-calorie recipe but it will entice your taste buds as it has a mix of spices. A healthy lunch will keep you full for longer without many hunger pangs.

Evening snacks

Snacks are probably the most difficult meal to control when it comes to weight loss as there are a lot of options like junk food, frozen food and other quick bites. So it is best if you have a healthier alternative ready before you start gorging on something unhealthy like fries, burgers, etc. Try making cucumber pancakes.

Dinner

A light dinner is a good way to end the day and nothing is more healthy than a salad. Try making this healthy leafy salad which has a host of lettuce leaves. Even if you want to eat something else for dinner, have a bowl of salad before it. This way, you will be quite full and you won t indulge too much into eating the main course.
