Since you’re a teenager, it’s not recommended that you follow a very strict diet. Instead, concentrate on increasing your outdoor activity through sports and avoid junk food. Follow these tips:
Don’t skip the first meal of the day.

Include low fat milk and dairy products in your meal. Have cottage cheese and yoghurt.

Eat fresh fruits and dry fruits.

Do not eat in front of the TV.

Have small, frequent well-balanced meals including a variety of cereals, pulses, dal, sprouts, vegetables and fruits. Avoid processed, packed foods and flour products.

Avoid fried foods and concentrated sweets, carbonated beverages, chocolates, cream biscuits, cakes and pastries.

I’m 29 years old, my height is 5’4” and I weigh 65 kg. I gained almost 15 kg in the last six months, all of which I want to lose. Please suggest a diet plan as I don’t get time to exercise.

According to your height, your weight should be 55-57 kg, so you have to reduce 8 kg. Without exercise, the diet mentioned below won’t help. Go for morning walk (30 mins). Avoid using road transport for short distances and take the stairs.
