Do fad diets actually help? Is cooking in ghee better than cooking in vegetable oil? Rashi Chowdhary, nutritionist and inchloss expert and the owner of The Protein Bake Shop, on the dos and donts of weightloss
Do you think fad diets are useful when it comes to reducing weight?
Well, fad diets are an absolute waste of your time, effort, money and most often muscle! That’s why the weight drops off so quickly and comes right back on when you resume normal eating. We need to stop treating our health like fashion. You can’t keep going on and off fad diets depending on which one’s in season because your fave celeb went on it! Your body will never change if you don’t change your attitude towards it. Eating in balance and according to your fitness goals will take time, effort and patience but the peace of mind and health it gives your body is unparalleled. People who eat well and focus on fitness exuberate a very different attractive, addictive vibe as compared to those who are always trying different diets and complaining about how nothing works. You need to choose which side you want to live on. Once you choose health and fitness over “deadline” dieting, you’ll never want it any other way.
Which are the foods that can aid the process of inchloss?
Here are my top 10 fave foods that will really accelerate inchloss. Eat them over and over again in different simple preparations to see how your body changes
Whole eggs
Avocados
Paleo almond butter
Pasteurised butter
