With a height of 1.55 meters, I have finally overcome obesity and rely on these 6 weight loss staple foods. The first recommendation is to eat them every day

The most painful part of losing weight is not sweating during exercise, but watching others eat big and only being able to gnaw on cucumbers. Who said losing weight means saying goodbye to staple foods? These 6 treasure staple foods can keep you full and slim, especially suitable for people with small body weight. A girl with a height of 155cm tested herself and found that she lost 12 pounds in three months, and her waist circumference decreased by two sizes!

1. List of 6 main foods that make you lose weight as you eat

1. Oats: It is recommended to have them for breakfast every day

Choose raw cut oatmeal instead of ready to eat options to retain more dietary fiber. When cooking, add chia seeds to increase satiety and pair with blueberries to supplement anthocyanins. Pay attention to the ingredient list when purchasing, pure oats only have one ingredient, "oats".

2. Black rice: Eating 3-4 times a week

produces three times more anthocyanins than white rice, and soaking for 2 hours before cooking makes it easier to digest. It can be mixed with white rice in a ratio of 1:3 to ensure taste and control calorie intake. After cooking black rice and letting it cool, it will produce resistant starch with lower calorie content.

3. Buckwheat Noodles: A must-have for satisfying cravings

Choose products with a buckwheat flour content of over 30%, and cook the noodles with supercooled water for a stronger flavor. It is recommended to mix minced garlic, millet chili, soy sauce, and apple cider vinegar to make mixed noodle sauce, which has 80% lower calories than sesame sauce. Paired with shredded chicken breast and cucumber, it's the perfect weight loss meal.

4. Sweet potatoes: The best pre exercise supplement

Medium sized (about 150 grams) sweet potatoes are enough for a main meal, and steaming retains more nutrients than grilling. Eating half an hour before exercise can provide long-lasting energy without causing gastrointestinal burden. Purple sweet potatoes contain more selenium than sweet potatoes and can be eaten alternately.

5. Chickpeas: Protein Champion

Soak for 12 hours in advance and cook until soft. Add olive oil and rosemary and grill for a more fragrant taste. Mashing can replace salad dressing, and 50 grams can provide 8 grams of high-quality protein. Eating twice a week can effectively reduce visceral fat accumulation.

6. Taro: An underestimated slimming helper

Choose the glutinous Lipu taro, steam it and press it into a paste instead of cream to make a thick soup. The mucin protein contained can protect the gastric mucosa, especially suitable for people who are prone to stomach discomfort during the weight loss period. Stir fry with shrimp, low calorie and delicious.

2. Three golden rules for eating the right main food

1. Controlling the total amount is crucial

Each main food should not exceed the size of one's fist, and using small utensils can naturally reduce intake. The staple food should be paired with sufficient protein and vegetables to ensure a balanced nutrition.

2. Pay attention to the order of eating

Drink soup first, then eat vegetables, and finally eat the main food. This can slow down the rate of blood sugar rise and avoid fat accumulation. Chew slowly during meals to give the brain enough time to transmit satiety signals.

3. Cleverly utilizing changes in temperature

Starch based staple foods will produce resistant starch after cooling, resulting in a decrease in heat absorption rate. The cooked rice can be made into sushi or Rice and vegetable roll, which is convenient to carry and reduces calorie intake.

III. Two types of staple food traps to avoid

1. "Fake coarse grains" disguised as healthy foods

Beware of "whole wheat bread" with wheat flour as the first ingredient on the ingredient list. Real whole wheat bread should have a rough texture and visible bran. Those colorful fruit and vegetable noodles often contain a large amount of starch and pigments added.

2. Overprocessed staple food products

Puffed foods, cakes, cookies, and other precision processed foods, even if labeled as "low-fat", cannot change their high calorie nature. Homemade mixed grain pancakes are much more reliable than the mixed grain biscuits sold in supermarkets. Losing weight is not an ascetic self punishment, learning to be friends with food is the long-term solution. These 6 staple foods are like your slimming comrades, they can satisfy your appetite and assist in fat burning. Remember, small girls need to eat enough basal metabolism to lose weight. Extreme dieting will only activate the body's "hunger mode". Starting from tomorrow's breakfast bowl of oats, embark on your happy journey of weight loss!
