(Instagram)    <\/p>\n<p>He explains in his post that many people unknowingly sabotage their meals by stacking <a class=\"backlink\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hindustantimes.com\/lifestyle\/health\/fitness-expert-shares-4-tips-to-manage-carbohydrate-intake-on-a-weight-loss-journey-portion-control-with-whole-foods-101761565534865.html\" data-vars-page-type=\"story\" data-vars-link-type=\"Manual\" data-vars-anchor-text=\"carbohydrates\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">carbohydrates<\/a> on carbohydrates. &#8220;If your lunch looks like a big bowl of sabzi and just rotis, you&#8217;re essentially eating carbohydrates with carbohydrates. Let&#8217;s try to balance this plate,&#8221; he advises.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s his simple guide to a healthier, balanced meal:<\/p>\n<p> <strong>1. Go easy on the roti<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Don\u2019t have 10 rotis. Have 1 or 2 instead,&#8221; says Siddhartha. He adds that people often think more rotis mean more energy, but too many can spike <a class=\"backlink\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hindustantimes.com\/topic\/blood-sugar\" data-vars-page-type=\"story\" data-vars-link-type=\"Manual\" data-vars-anchor-text=\"blood sugar\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">blood sugar<\/a> levels and slow down weight management. Reducing the number of rotis allows room on your plate for other essential nutrients without feeling deprived.<\/p>\n<p> <strong>2. Watch your sabzi portions<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This is aloo ki sabzi, and yes, aloo is a carbohydrate, but that doesn\u2019t mean it\u2019s bad for you. Your mom probably made it with a lot of love, but we are going to go easy on it,&#8221; he explains. A smaller bowl of homemade sabzi can help cut down excess calories without compromising on taste.<\/p>\n<p>   3. Add fibre and roughage<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;To balance it, add a small bowl of salad. This gives you more fibre and roughage,&#8221; he suggests. Siddhartha emphasises that adding raw vegetables or greens helps with <a class=\"backlink\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hindustantimes.com\/topic\/digestion\" data-vars-page-type=\"story\" data-vars-link-type=\"Manual\" data-vars-anchor-text=\"digestion\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">digestion<\/a>, keeps you full longer, and adds essential vitamins and minerals to your meal. It\u2019s an easy way to boost nutrition without adding extra calories.<\/p>\n<p> 4. Include protein<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Where is the protein? For protein, you can either add Greek yoghurt. If you\u2019re at the office, it\u2019s easy to carry, and half a cup gives you almost 20 grams of protein. If you\u2019re not into Greek yoghurt, you can swap it with some high-protein paneer,&#8221; Siddhartha adds.<\/p>\n<p>By following this simple structure, your plate now has protein, good carbohydrates, and plenty of fibre, exactly what a balanced meal should look like. &#8220;This small adjustment can make a huge difference in your fitness journey,&#8221; concludes Siddhartha.<\/p>\n<p>Note to readers: This article is for informational purposes only and not a substitute for professional medical advice.
