Aug 24, 2014

Dr. Rania Mousa General Medicine
Wrong food choices and a sedentary lifestyle are the leading reasons behind obesity these days.
Weight loss follows a simple equation: burn more calories than what you consume. In order to lose weight faster you can reduce the calorie intake

Fortunately, there are many healthy foods that can curb the appetite naturally. These foods are low in calories, so your diet plan doesn't get derailed.
these foods are good choices :

>>fruits and vegetables high in fiber and which are low in calories are of good choice ,they bulk your stomach making you feeling full ,you can eat a bowl of salad and satisfied since the quantity doesn't matter ,you will feel eating much but the fact is that you eat low caloric diet which make you full and thus no hunger .
Eat salad before the main meal to avoid overeating,you can add apple vinegar to your salad for better effect .

The high fiber content would delay the entry of glucose into the bloodstream and you won't feel hungry very quickly.

>you can choose eating apples ,he fiber helps you feel full longer because it expands in your stomach so it takes less food to satisfy your hunger and prevents you from overeating.
Apples also contain natural sugars which maintain a healthy blood sugar level. This prevents your body from developing the urge to ingest more carbs.

>Oatmeal, another fiber-rich food, contains good carbohydrates that burn slowly and thus makes you feel less hungry.
The high fiber content also makes you feel fuller faster. Moreover, oatmeal is ideal for diabetics as it is low on the glycemic index.
You can have this power-packed breakfast food with some low fat milk or even better sprinkle some flaxseed on the top

>Pine nuts contain an appetite suppressing chemical called pinolenic acid, a naturally occurring polyunsaturated fat (PUFA) that naturally curbs your hunger.
Also, pine nuts have the highest amount of protein and this ensures a constant supply of energy to your body. So, have a healthy serving of pine nuts throughout the day to suppress your appetite as you try to lose weight.

>flaxseeds are also rich in fiber with 30 grams of flaxseeds providing 8 grams of fiber.
The more flax seed you eat with each meal, the longer it will take for your sugar level to rise. As a result, your hunger hormones are kept at bay.
The best part about flaxseeds is that you can sprinkle them on anything you want to eat, be it salads, smoothies, sandwiches or curries.

>If you are craving for food and you know that your body has everything it needs, then drink water instead. Water, a zero calorie drink, is perhaps the best appetite suppressing agent when you are on your plans to lose weight.
Drinking water throughout the day and anytime you start to feel hungry deceives the brain into thinking the stomach is full.
A recent study on people following a low calorie diet found that people who drank 2 cups of water prior to their meals lost about 7 kg in 12 weeks as compared to 5 kg weight loss in people who did not.

>Green tea is known for its antioxidant benefits. However, it can also stimulate the release of hormones that can control or limit food cravings.
Green tea works by promoting thermogenesis, which increases the metabolic rate, inhibiting fat digestion, and boosting your energy. It is also a natural fat burner and helps you burn up to 43 percent more fat.

>Two servings of low calorie soup if you are on a diet plan is very good choice
Soups suppress appetite because of their high water content, and aid in weight loss due to low-calorie content. Broths and vegetable soups are the best options especially cabbage soup .

>surprisingly you can eat a small portion of black chocolate bar ,only a small portion ,The bittersweet taste of pure dark chocolate helps in suppressing appetite. Some studies indicate that dark chocolate antioxidants can act as an appetite suppressant helping you lose weight and control blood sugar.

So these are the foods you can increase them in your diet plan to suppress and count less calories beside exercising well remember if the diet plan is so hard you can't continue on it ,but eating foods that don't count and make you full is a wise option concerning a diet plan longer effect to lose weight .
