  Late dinner time 

When talking about dinner, the first thing to keep in mind is the time. Because it has been observed that people who eat their dinner later are likely to overeat so you should have your dinner on time to maintain a healthy weight.  

• You are having fried food

Chicken is a great option for dinner but not fried chicken as when you fry food, you take away its minerals, also fried food is full of fat and calories so avoid having fried items in your dinner. 

• You are using the wrong plate size 

Size matters a lot in dinner. If you eat on a bigger plate, your food looks smaller, so it’s much easier to overload your plate. If you eat on a small plate, the food serving seems to be larger. So start using the right plate size. 

• You are not drinking water

Everyone knows that having sodas and other carbonated drinks is never ideal. So that is why it is important to drink water not only alongside your meal but before it as well. Studies found that drinking water half an hour before eating a main meal such as dinner helps with weight loss. 

• You are adding too much salt 

You might gain weight if you eat too much salt. If you think you need too much salt to add flavors to your food, it’s time to stop. 

• You are eating too fast 

We all are hungry by dinner time, and there is a chance that we eat faster, which makes it difficult to see how much we are eating. So eat slowly, as you might just end up getting fuller quicker than you may think.

Keep these things in mind while having dinner.
