What are the best edibles for weight loss?

I recently lost quite a bit of weight, and honestly, the 'best edibles' were just simple, whole foods. Lots of dal, roti (whole wheat), sabzi, and a good amount of fruits. Avoiding processed snacks and sugary drinks made the biggest difference. It's about consistency, not some magic food.

As a working professional, I find that meal prepping with nutrient-dense edibles is key. Things like brown rice, millets, grilled chicken/paneer, and a variety of veggies. They are easy to prepare, keep you full during busy days, and prevent unhealthy snacking. Realistic and sustainable choices work best.

I'm just starting my weight loss journey. So, you mean things like salads and fruits are good? Should I avoid all rice and roti? What about evening snacks, what can I eat that's healthy and helps with weight loss?

For vegetarians focusing on weight loss, I highly recommend increasing intake of lentils (dals), chickpeas, sprouts, paneer (in moderation), and a wide variety of vegetables. These are high in protein and fiber, keeping you satisfied. Replace refined grains with whole grains like oats, quinoa, or millets. Always balance your meals.
