Food.NDTV offers simple ways to prevent binge eating and aid weight loss.

Follow a balanced diet

A balanced diet includes all food groups and healthy snacks. This makes it easy to stick to your routine without being too restrictive and lacking in calories.

Drink enough water

Our brains can confuse thirst with hunger. When we are dehydrated, the electrolyte balance in our body becomes imbalanced, which messes with our brain's hunger signals.

To overcome this, try to drink 8-10 glasses of water every day. Drinking water before meals also helps you feel fuller, so you are less likely to overeat.

Plan meals and snacks

If you don't plan ahead, you're more likely to binge, especially when you're trying to lose weight. Keep healthy snacks like nuts and bananas on hand to grab when you feel hungry.

Try to shorten the gap between dinner and bedtime, a suitable gap is 2-3 hours.

Use smaller plates and bowls

Portion control is one of the ways to prevent overeating and support weight loss. At the same time, eating meals on smaller plates and bowls makes your portions appear larger while still ensuring your weight loss goals.
