8 Rules That Actually Work

No fads. No supplements. Just the habits that consistently produce results in Pakistani households.

Rule 1

Drink 2 glasses of water before every meal — reduces intake by 15–20%.

Rule 2

Cut cooking oil to 1 tsp per person per meal. This single change saves 200–400 kcal daily.

Rule 3

Switch to chai without sugar. 3 cups/day with sugar = 180–240 hidden calories.

Rule 4

Walk 20 minutes after dinner. Burns 100–150 kcal and improves insulin sensitivity.

Rule 5

Eat dinner by 8pm. Late eating disrupts sleep quality and promotes fat storage.

Rule 6

Fill half your plate with sabzi or salad at every meal — volume without calories.

Rule 7

Weigh yourself once a week, same day and time. Daily weighing creates false discouragement.

Rule 8

Daal at least once daily — high protein, high fibre, keeps you full for 4–6 hours.
