Dear Anjuli, Thank you for the question

According to your mentioned Height & weight your BMI is 29.5kg/m2 which is under the overweight BMI range as per WHO classification.
Sustainable weight management requires a holistic approach which involves lifestyle modification which includes Dietary modification, Physical activity and stress management.
With any weight loss diet, changes take time to reflect as your body requires sufficient time to adapt to the changes in order to show results.
An ideal weight loss plan should include a calorie deficit diet and appropriate exercise regimen followed under professional guidance.

Here are few guidelines that can be considered:
- Eat a well-balanced diet, include all the 5 food groups (cereals, pulses, fruits, vegetables, milk & milk products).
- Avoid skipping your meals. Have small quantity of meals at regular intervals.
- Choose healthy snacking options in between your meals.
- Monitor your portion size.
-Try to include whole grains like wheat, millets and multigrain in your diet as they are a good source of fiber and other nutrients.
- Fiber in your meals can potentiate the satiating property, suppress excess hunger and control food intake. All fruits and vegetables, whole grains, nuts & seeds etc., are a good source of fiber.
- Try switching from saturated fats and trans fats to MUFA (mono-unsaturated fatty acids ) & PUFA(polyunsaturated fatty acids) as they are essential fatty acids and are good for your health.
- Consume fresh, seasonal fruits as they contain many essential nutrients and are good sources of fiber.
- Carbonated and alcoholic beverages to be limited or preferably avoided.
- Deep Fried foods to be restricted. Method of cooking like baking, grilling, boiling, steaming is preferable over deep frying with excess fat/ oil.
- Minimum of 8 glasses of water should be consumed to keep yourself hydrated.
- Avoid skipping your meals. Have small quantity of meals at regular intervals.
- Choose healthy snacking options in between your meals.
- Monitor your portion size.
- Engage in at least 30-45 minutes of physical activity of moderate intensity such as walking for at least five days a week.
- Have your last meal at least 2-3 hours before Bed time.
- Try to follow a good sleep regimen that is in terms of both quantity and quality.

For a customized and personalized meal plan for specific conditions and further assistance, please contact your Health care professional.
