The prevalence of overweight and obesity in India is increasing faster than the world average. More than 135 million individuals are affected by obesity in India. Obesity is one of the risk factors to lifestyle related disorders and diseases like diabetes mellitus, hypertension, cholesterol, heart diseases, etc.

In an attempt to lose weight, you must have visited a lot of websites and tried every fad diet out there, watched countless videos by famous personalities on how they lost weight, implemented all the tricks mentioned in the health care books. Some may even have started with a fancy exercise programs, bought fancy packages that detox your system and lead to weight loss, measured and eaten every morsel of food with a fear that a little more will add on a few grams on the weighing scale, and so on….
Now, while trying all of the above you must have lost a few kilos but, the question is when you got back to the normal eating habits, did you gain it all back with a double fold? The answer for most of us would be a “yes”.
Does losing weight means fearing food? Or counting each bite that you take? Of course not, it is all about eating right, nutritious, and balanced meals.
