The order of diet is very important if you want to lose weight successfully

When it’s time to eat, there’s a table full of delicious dishes: fragrant and soft white rice, crispy roasted chicken legs, stir-fried cabbage, and miso tofu soup. Which one would you eat first?

I believe that most people would first take big bites of meat with rice, or choose the dish that goes best with rice, and then slurp down the rice. After that, they can't eat much vegetables, so they just take a few bites casually to prove that they have taken in fiber, and finally drink the soup. In fact, this way of eating is the main reason why you get fat!

[Adjusting the order of eating is the first step to lose weight]

1. Eat plenty of dietary fiber first

This step is the most important in this weight loss diet. You need to finish eating vegetables, seaweed, mushrooms and other ingredients rich in "dietary fiber" first. The amount will be the largest among the three steps, and you should at least eat enough to not feel hungry.

2. Finish eating protein

The next step is to eat "protein" foods such as meat, fish, and soy. If you are mixing the two together, such as stir-frying meat with vegetables, divide it into two parts before eating and control the amount.

Generally speaking, the amount of protein our body needs every day is approximately "1 gram of protein per kilogram of body weight". During weight loss, it is better to choose protein with as little fat content as possible, such as soy protein (such as soybeans, tofu, dried tofu) or white meat such as fish, chicken, duck, and goose; pork, beef, and mutton are red meat and have a higher fat content, so try to eat less of them.

Protein is less likely to be used as a calorie priority in the body, which can help prevent a sallow complexion and thin body caused by nutritional imbalance during weight loss, and it is easier to feel full when paired with carbohydrates. Therefore, eating more protein first will make you less likely to become fat easily than eating a lot of carbohydrates or fats at the beginning.

3. Eat carbohydrates last

Eat "dietary fiber" and "protein" first, and then eat "carbohydrates" last. It doesn't matter if you eat very little food at this stage. If you have done the first two steps, you will naturally reduce the amount of food you eat.

Rice, noodles, pasta, and root vegetables are all rich in carbohydrates, and when they are consumed in excess, they will form body fat. Try to choose rough whole grains, which will make you feel full easily and won’t raise your blood sugar level too high.
