Have fish as often as you can and have brown rice sometimes. Chicken sandwiches are not only healthy but also delicious. Keep lunch simple and avoid adding too much oil and salt.A Light DinnerKeep your dinner as little as possible. For dinner, you can have a small serving of vegetables and soup. Having a light dinner is a right way to lose weight. You can also drink a cup of healthy drink, fruit smoothie or milk after dinner.
