I always feel very uncomfortable in eating freely when I'm with my friend group. I always feel that because of my weight I'll get judged by them for my portion size and diet. I'm scared to eat anything in front of them. How can I overcome this problem?

My friends have all gone vegan and they are forcing me to do the same. And I am kind of liking the changes. How can I inculcate more vegan options in my diet??

You can explore protein-rich plant sources like beans, nuts, and seeds to replace meat.

You can start with a few vegetarian or plant-based meals each week, gradually increasing the frequency. ❤️

I’ve been trying to lose weight but find it hard to stick to a diet. How can I create a sustainable meal plan that I’ll actually enjoy?
Hi there, I hope you are well. I hear you, and you are not alone :) Here's how you can adopt a healthier lifestyle. - Firstly, understand that you just don't have to go on a diet to lose weight. Rather, you need to adopt a lifestyle which will stay with you for longer. - Along with a balanced diet, you need to incorporate exercise ( for 4-5 times a week, 30mins at least) , drink enough water ( 8-10 glasses), sleep well( 7-8hrs), and manage stress ( by meditation or yoga). - Enjoy the food that you consume, and take small bites, and chew your food well. - Incorporate fresh fruits, vegetables, beans, lentils, nuts, seeds, eggs, lean meat, wholegrains, dairy and dairy products to your diet. Avoid restricting a particular food group. - Eat your favourite foods once in a while, so that you aren't missing on to anything. - Avoid distractions during meal time. Keep your phone, tab, and laptop away. - Learn to practice moderation and stick to your portions rather than over-indulging :)

what type of food should be avoided by a thyroid patient?
hina4d
Thyroid patients should generally avoid foods high in iodine, such as seaweed and iodized salt, as well as soy-based products and certain cruciferous vegetables like kale and broccoli, as they can interfere with thyroid function. It's always best for them to consult with a healthcare professional for personalized dietary advice.
Hi there, I hope you are well. If you've been suffering from Hypothyroidism, then it is important for you to do the following things. 1) You can consume Cruciferous vegetables like cauliflower, broccoli, cabbage, kale etc. but in the cooked form only. Avoid having it as a salad. These vegetables can be eaten once in 3-4 days. - Reduce the consumption of soy and soy based products. - Avoid packaged, ultra processed, and refined foods. - Keep a tab on your sugar and salt intake. - Go slow on the consumption of peanuts as well. - Please feel free to get in touch with me for a one-one consultation as I can guide you better on the same :) Take care ✨

I often feel pressured to eat a certain way or follow strict diet rules to fit in with my peers. Is there a way I can stay true to my own nutritional needs and preferences without giving in to external pressures?
If you force yourself into a diet, it might not be as effective as it could be. Additionally, it's not necessary to eliminate all foods; there are always alternatives available. I would suggest consulting a nutritionist who can help you create a personalized plan to manage your cravings and calorie intake

There's no need to feel pressured about it. You eat what you like and want to eat.

I’m a busy parent and often rely on fast food. How can I make healthier choices without sacrificing convenience?
Na_Dia18d
You must stop fast foods as soon as possible. You must try healthy foods that get cooked within no time such as oats
Hi there, I hope you are well. Here are ways in which you can eat healthy even when you are busy. - Chop all the vegetables on a Saturday/Sunday or whenever you get a holiday and place it in a ziplock bag. You can use these veggies to prepare fried rice, poha/upma, sabji, sauteed veggies, stir-fry, etc. - Puree the curry or gravy base in advance and place it in your freezer. You can defrost it and use it as and when needed. - Prepare wrap, sandwich batter in advance and place it in your fridge. You can use this for 3-4 days based on the veggies used. Don't keep it for too long. - You can have sandwiches, roti wraps ( use the leftover sabzi in it), curd rice (easy to prepare), a basic vegetable rice or pulav, protein salads ( you can boil chana, moong) and place in in the fridge. - If you eat non-veg, then marinate Chicken, fish in advance, refrigerate it and grill it as an when needed. Let me know if this helps, Take care ✨ and eat healthy!

I sometimes experience [digestive issue] after eating certain foods. Can you help me identify potential triggers and suggest dietary modifications? @drsuruchi
Hi there, I hope you are well. Certain foods such as spicy foods, alcohol, chocolate, dairy products (to a certain extent), oily or fried foods, caffeine, salty foods, baked goods, salad dressings, fizzy drinks, citrus fruits, beans, legumes, cauliflower, cabbage, tomatoes can lead to digestive issues. Even raw garlic, and onion can cause cramping. How to tackle it? 1) Firstly try to rule out the triggers, you can start by eliminating a few foods listed above, one by one, and see if your symptoms are better or if the episodes have reduced. 2) Don't give large gap in between your meals. 3) Eat your food slowly and chew it well, eating in haste can be a big reason for indigestion as well. 4) Begin your day with a healthy meal, and avoid sugary cereals or a heavy unhealthy breakfast (cheese sandwiches, burgers, bakery items, etc). 5) Avoid overeating. I hope this helps :)

Consuming smaller meals more frequently can prevent excess pressure on the stomach and reduce the risk of reflux. 💕✨

I often feel bloated after meals. Are there certain food combinations I should avoid to improve digestion? @DrHimabinduKS
Heyy my fellow She-ro. I feel bloating is one of our existential enemy. Always embarrassing us. There are some food combos that definitely help. On the top are fermented foods and pre-probiotics. They improve your digestion too. Foods to avoid would be spicy foods, any sour foods.

I struggle with portion control. Do you have any tips for managing portion sizes and avoiding overeating? @Virtual Nutrition Club
Hi there, I hope you are well. Here's how you can stick to portion control. 1) Start by eating in a small plate, the smaller the plate the less likely you are to eat more. 2) Before beginning your meal have a bowl of yogurt and a small bowl of salad. This will fill you up and you won't eat much. 3) Drink small sips of water in between, this will also fill you up a little. 4) Once you've eaten one helping on food, distance yourself from the table and take your plate along. 5) Avoid remaining the vicinity of food. 6) Chew on to some fennel seeds or jeera to make yourself feel that you've eaten enough. 7) Whenever you eat a meal, ensure to chew your food well. This way you will feel full soon. 8) Ensure to eat your mid-meals or healthy snacks to avoid over -eating during lunch or dinner. I hope this helps. So more personalized inputs and tips, you can get in touch with me for a one -one consultation :) Take care.
