“Choose high-fiber and protein-rich breakfasts like eggs, oats, or besan chilla with vegetables to keep you energized and support weight loss,” wrote the dietician as she noted down the five breakfast options that should be avoided.

Chai and paratha with butter or ghee:

Paratha loaded with butter or ghee is high in calories and fats, while chai often contains sugar, making this a calorie-dense and low-nutrient combination, with no protein source.

Puri with halwa or chana:

Puri is deep-fried and loaded with trans fats, while halwa is high in sugar and ghee. The combination is calorie-heavy and lacks fiber to keep you full.

White bread with butter or jam:

White bread is low in fiber and nutrients, while butter and sugary spreads add unnecessary calories and fats without keeping you full for long.

Sweetened smoothies or juices:

Smoothies and juices often contain added sugars and lack the fiber found in whole fruits, making them high in calories but less satisfying.

Sugary cereals:

Most store-bought cereals are loaded with sugar and lack fiber or protein, causing blood sugar spikes and crashes, leading to hunger soon after, wrote Muntaha as she shared the food items to avoid during weight loss.
