The Complete Pakistani Diet Plan for Weight Loss

Pakistani cuisines are rich in flavors. Fresh ingredients and oil improve the taste of every food prepared in a Pakistani Kitchen.

But, when it comes to going on a strict diet plan, most Pakistanis – and not to mention Asians – believe that eating vegetables and drinking green tea is the only choice left to do. They totally avoid the traditional foods and limit their dishes to boiled meat and vegetables.

Regardless of what we do, it is difficult for most of us to strictly follow the above diet, because we are Asians and we just cannot avoid eating spicy and traditional foods. After all, you can’t take “chat pata khana” out of an Asian cuisine. Now, can you?

Nonetheless, obesity (Motapa) is becoming a major problem in not only US or China, but many other countries across the globe. In fact, according to the latest studies, Pakistan is now ranked 9th out of the 188 countries that have been found to have the most obese population.

Therefore, to fight off obesity (Motapa), it is important to do something about weight loss. But keep in mind that a weight loss plan isn’t limited to a vegan diet. No, that’s not the right way!
