Oatmeal with berries and nuts

Oatmeal is rich in fibre, which keeps you feeling full for longer, and it stabilises blood sugar levels. Add fresh berries, which are low-calorie fruits packed with antioxidants and vitamins. Top it off with some chopped nuts, for a dose of healthy fats and protein

Greek yoghurt with honey, granola

Greek yoghurt is a protein powerhouse. Layer it with honey and granola for added texture. The protein in Greek yoghurt helps you stay full, while honey provides a touch of natural sweetness. Just be mindful of portion sizes when adding granola, as it can be calorie-dense

Avocado toast with poached egg

Avocado has healthy fats and fibre that curb your appetite. Top your whole-grain toast with mashed avocado and a poached egg. The combination of protein, healthy fats, and complex carbs will keep you energised and satisfied

Smoothie bowl with greens, protein

Blend spinach, kale, or other leafy greens with protein powder. Add fruits like banana or berries for sweetness and some almond or coconut milk for a creamy texture. Finish with a sprinkle  of chia seeds or flaxseeds for added fibre and omega-3 fatty acids

Idli with coconut chutney and sambar

Idli is a low-calorie breakfast perfect for weight loss. Pair it with coconut chutney and sambar. Idli is light and fluffy, while the coconut chutney adds good fats and sambar adds proteins and fibre to your meal. Down it with a hot cup of filtered coffee (without sugar, of course)!

Poha with sprouts

Poha is light on calories and easy to prepare. Add sprouts, which are a rich source of vitamins and minerals. Toss  in some diced vegetables like bell peppers or carrots for extra crunch  and nutrients, and top it up with  roasted peanuts for healthy fats

Scrambled eggs with spinach

Eggs are rich in high-quality protein, which promotes feelings of fullness and helps control cravings. Scramble your eggs with spinach and tomatoes for a nutrient-packed meal. Spinach adds fibre and vitamins, while tomatoes bring a burst of flavour and antioxidants
