Whether you want to maintain your existing weight or lose a bit of extra weight, it does not necessarily have to be about eating less! This is because there are many foods you can eat in relatively big portions, that are actually a dieter or weight watcher’s best friend.
Foods that are high in fiber and water content, but low in kilocalorie counts are included in this group. These foods fill you up and can be eaten in good sized portions. This also means you don’t psychologically feel like you’re missing out because of small portions! As always, include these foods as part of a balanced daily diet or meal plan to help manage your weight and nutritional requirements.
