Is polenta good for weight loss?

I tried including polenta when I was trying to cut down weight. It actually worked well for me as a substitute for rice or pasta because it felt lighter. But you have to cook it plain, like with just water, and then add grilled veggies or lean chicken. The creamy, cheesy versions? Definitely not for weight loss!

Beta, for weight loss, sabse pehle toh ghar ka khaana aur thodi walking. Polenta toh videshi cheez hai, par agar kam tel mein aur sabzi ke saath khaoge, toh sh शायद theek ho. Par koi bhi ek cheez se vazan nahi kam hota, poori lifestyle sudharni padti hai. Aur thoda subah jaldi utho.

Polenta for weight loss? My brain says 'yes, healthy grain!' but my stomach says 'add cheese, add butter, add cream!'. So, if you have more willpower than me, then yes, it can be. Otherwise, it's just another delicious way to gain weight. Ugh, just let me sleep.

I've been looking into polenta as a carb alternative. It seems pretty good because it's gluten-free and can be quite filling with less calories than some other grains. But I guess it totally depends on how you cook it, like if you drown it in butter it's probably not great for weight loss anymore.
