Best daily diet to gain weight

While most people seem to be interested only in how to lose weight and drop extra kilos, there are others who want to put on a little bit of weight and gain some kilos. Unfortunately, most such people fall prey to unnecessary supplements and unhealthy junk food to put on weight, before checking out healthy natural foods for weight gain. If you want to gain weight, don't rely on high-calorie junk foods that aren't nutritious. Choose foods that are nutrient-dense and energy-dense whenever possible. We give you 25 natural foods that will help you gain weight - the healthy way.

Diet to follow

Breakfast:

A breakfast diet could include a highly nutritious sandwich with 2 or 3 bread slices combined with lettuce, tomato and onion. Spinach and mushrooms could add flavor and taste to the dish. Complement it with a glass of milk.

Lunch

The menu for lunch could be almost anything from rice to pasta to wheat in the form of roti supplemented with vitamin and mineral rich vegetables such as carrots, beans and leafy vegetables.

Include two or three helpings of snacks in between the meals. You could chomp on an assortment of nuts in these snacks.

Dinner

For dinner, include the same amount of rice/wheat roti as lunch along with with leafy vegetables. If you want to add taste to your food, do add a bowlful of curd to your dinner or drink a glass of fresh fruit juice.  

Add this fruit to your daily diet and see the magic in few days.

• Avocado

Avocados can help you gain weight because they are high-calorie, with 322 calories in a large avocado. Avocados are high-fat fruits that are high in heart-healthy monounsaturated fats and low in unhealthy saturated fats. Add avocado slices to sandwiches and salads, and stir avocado into chicken tortilla, beef and vegetable, or butternut squash soup to make it creamier. Make guacamole with avocados, lime juice, garlic and black pepper.

It will be foolhardy to believe in such myths such as a vegetarian rich diet would fail to trigger weight gain in people. Try including foods with greater calories in your diet and you will see change within a few weeks!

Best Daily Diet to Lose WEIGHT

To lose weight, you must eat fewer calories than your body uses

You can create lower-calorie versions of some of your favorite dishes by substituting low-calorie fruits and vegetables in place of higher-calorie ingredients. The water and fiber in fruits and vegetables will add volume to your dishes, so you can eat the same amount of food with fewer calories. Most fruits and vegetables are naturally low in fat and calories and are filling.

Breakfast: Start the Day Right

• Substitute some spinach, onions, or mushrooms for one of the eggs or half of the cheese in your morning omelet. The vegetables will add volume and flavor to the dish with fewer calories than the egg or cheese.
• Cut back on the amount of cereal in your bowl to make room for some cut-up bananas, peaches, or strawberries. You can still eat a full bowl, but with fewer calories.

           

Lighten Up Your Lunch

• Substitute vegetables such as lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, or onions for 2 ounces of the cheese and 2 ounces of the meat in 
• your sandwich, wrap, or burrito. The new version will fill you up with fewer calories than the original.

• Add a cup of chopped vegetables, such as broccoli, carrots, beans, or red peppers, in place of 2 ounces of the meat or 1 cup of noodles in your favorite broth-based soup. The vegetables will help fill you up, so you won't miss those extra calories.

            

Dinner

• Add in 1 cup of chopped vegetables such as broccoli, tomatoes, squash, onions, or peppers, while removing 1 cup of the rice or pasta in your favorite dish. The dish with the vegetables will be just as satisfying but have fewer calories than the same amount of the original version.
• Take a good look at your dinner plate. Vegetables, fruit, and whole grains should take up the largest portion of your plate. If they do not, replace some of the meat, cheese, white pasta, or rice with legumes, steamed broccoli, asparagus, greens, or another favorite vegetable. This will reduce the total calories in your meal without reducing the amount of food you eat. BUT remember to use a normal- or small-size plate — not a platter. The total number of calories that you eat counts, even if a good proportion of them come from fruits and vegetables.

Ramgarh ke Choley errr. Sholey

Ramgarh has a new story

Place: Ramgarh                                                                                            Year: 2015

           Gabbar has escaped from jail. Now Ramgarh is not the same small village, as it was before, it has becomes a city. Basanti got married to Veeru and are living happily. After selling horse cart, Veeru purchased a car and now working as a Ola driver. Basanti is taking care of Thakur and Dhanno.

           With all the happiness in their life, there is some serious tragedy, " Dhanno ka toh thik hai, ghas kha ke khush hai BUT Thakur ke bahot nakhare hai ", the old man wants to eat a new dish everyday.

Frustrated Basanti goes to old Thakur to get answers.

Basanti: Thakurji, you tell me! I am tired of your demands for new dishes everyday. You have to get the vegetables for your demands or just tell me where to buy fresh, affordable vegetables and fruits. Ab mousi bhi nahi hai.

Thakur: Basanti, I am busy in searching Gabbar. Iss bar mai apne hatho se usse ................. SORRY ... apne pairo so use kuchal dunga. Tum apna dekh lo, muje bass meri pasand ka khaana chahiye.

Now Basanti faces too much problems while purchasing daily vegetables.                               

And, this is what she faced with local Ramu kaka's shop.

Stale and Low quality of veggies.

                                                                 Kaka! Its not even Fresh

Bargaining

                                                   Different pricing for different customers
