“I am a complete foodie and as a food reviewer I often have to eat out, which results in unhealthy eating! To balance this out and to keep my weight in check, I avoid eating carbohydrates at dinner time. In addition, I have two salt-free dinners in a week, where I eat only fruits with muesli and almond milk. I also try and eat dinner relatively early, preferably around 7:30p.m. when I am at home. This doesn’t always happen, but I try to follow this routine as regularly as possible!”

“Though, I am not much of a person who likes to cook but my one tip for eating healthy in a hectic life is PLAN. Planning your meals takes away a lot of stress. When you plan ahead, you ensure all ingredients are there in place and you can prepare well in advance so that at the last minute there is not too much happening. This holds true for moms who cook themselves or for those who have cooks. Planning also prepares you to eat healthy and you do not end up eating unhealthy as an excuse or in panic.“

“For me, healthy eating means eating fresh, eating homemade as much as possible. For creating such recipes, we don’t have to change our grocery list entirely, but adding a few healthy options and changing the recipe little bit can give us the results that we want. For example, if you like Oats in cereal form, then try making Oats Upma or Oats pancake. The same thing goes for lentils, try to make lentil soup or lentil dosa once a week for getting the nutrients.“

Though I’m not a fitness freak, a few things that I try to follow on a daily basis are:  

  • Drinking enough water and keeping myself hydrated. Working long hours in office tempts me to grab multiple coffees but I limit my caffeine intake to morning tea and a coffee.  
  • I munch on healthy snacks like nuts, foxnuts, peanuts, baked samosa and kachoris instead of junk. However, once a week, I don’t mind indulging in fried bhaturas or cutlets. After fried food, I drink hot beverages which keeps my digestive system happy. Raisins or dates or dark chocolate sometimes satiate my sweet cravings. Lastly, I say a big NO to tetra packs, canned and frozen foods. 
    I feel no matter how busy your schedule is, three meals a day are important and not to be skipped. These tips help me stay healthy.

Eating healthy is a lifestyle and shouldn’t be a choice, I have always believed in this mantra. Now that doesn’t mean, I don’t enjoy the samosas or pizza, fried chicken or weekend sundaes. But I make sure to balance out the intake.

  • Eat only when you hungry, and not out of boredom. Instead of munching on snacks or farsaan, eat granola or murmura etc.
  • Have your dinner early, I make sure to eat my dinner by 8 pm. Don’t skip meals. I had this very bad habit if skipping breakfast which resulted in bloating & acidic conditions. Sometimes I follow, no sweet days or no bread month. This helps body adjust to minute change. Most importantly, love yourself and be positive.

Expert advice 

Dr. Amrita Basu from healthwealthbridge.com 

“I am an ENT surgeon and a busy mom, so my air fryer is my secret weapon in cooking healthy. Bengali vegetable dishes need the veggies to be lightly fried for locking in the taste. To lower the calorie content, I boil most veggies, and then air fry them with a dash of oil to give them a light crunch. This helps to lower the total oil content. It’s great for frying fish, chicken, and making many tasty snacks with a fraction of the oil. I also insist on salads with each of our meals, drinking 4 liters of water every day and exercising together. This is what keeps us happy”.

So this is all for now. I had a great time while writing and sharing this round up post for you all. hoping you would like it.
