Compliance with a diet allows you not only to lose weight, but also to improve your health. Naturally, if you approach it correctly. However, this does not mean at all that you need to starve yourself or eat only fresh foods. Sometimes it is quite possible to please yourself with delicious and low-calorie meals.
Seafood
Properly prepared seafood can be consumed even if you need to lose weight. The thing is that they contain only healthy fats, and even then in small quantities, and there are no carbohydrates at all. You can indulge yourself on a diet with shrimp, squid or red fish boiled in salted water, steamed or grilled in foil. This preparation does not require oil, and lemon juice can be used as a flavor enhancer. It is better to cook such dishes for lunch or dinner - in small quantities, they will not harm your health or figure at all.
Meat
It is also not worth giving up meat dishes during a diet, because they also lack carbohydrates and sugar - the main enemies of the figure. True, it is best to use lean meats: veal, beef, rabbit or white chicken meat. From beef, you can cook, for example, an unusually tasty boiled pork. Simply rub a large piece of meat with salt and pepper, sprinkle with garlic and raw carrots, wrap in foil and let stand for a couple of hours. And then bake in the oven - you get a hearty, tasty and healthy dish. Well, the rabbit can be cooked in a double boiler, sprinkled with your favorite spices.
Dishes from vegetables and herbs
Vegetables and greens are allowed to be consumed in almost all diets, even medicinal ones. If you are tired of ordinary salads from them, try to cook a dish of boiled shrimp, cherry tomatoes and various herbs, for example, arugula and lettuce leaves. You can use olive oil and lemon juice as a dressing. You can also pamper yourself on a diet with a snack of pink tomatoes and oregano - cut the tomatoes into large pieces, salt, sprinkle with chopped oregano and pour with lemon juice.
If fresh vegetables are not recommended, bake them in the oven. Zucchini, for example, can be stuffed with herbs and minced chicken. And eggplant is a mixture of herbs, garlic and tomatoes. Sweet peppers, eggplants and tomatoes can be used to make a delicious, low-calorie sauté. Simply bake them in the oven right in the skins, then peel, cut into cubes and simmer a little in their own juice with onions and herbs.
Paste
Once a week on a diet, you can indulge yourself with durum wheat pasta. It contains complex carbohydrates that are absorbed by the body for a long time, giving a boost of energy and a feeling of fullness for a long time. Only it is better to cook it with seafood or simply with tomato sauce without high-calorie additives in the form of cheese and cream.
