Hi Lybrate-user, for weight loss you need to follow customised diet plans and follow below mentioned tips 1. Don?t starve yourself ?rather than not eating anything or on fasting, people should eat small frequent meals. 2. Eat proteins daily-include protein rich food in your diet on daily basis that give satiety or feeling of fullness to maintain healthy weight.
