All of these foods are healthy
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But if you’re trying to lose weight, portion size of even healthy foods is important. If you are trying to lose weight regularly check portions- even if you have done so before – as portion sizes do tend to creep up. Also a good example that even when you ensure portions of pasta are moderate, pasta and rice type dishes can become energy dense quite quickly, due to portion size of the base but also the sauces added.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
For pasta and rice- so you don’t simply end up with a tiny meal, replace some of the volume with non-starchy veg such as, broccoli, zucchini, carrot, tomatoes, capsicum, eggplant, cucumber, squash, spinach, kale, cauliflower, asparagus, bok choy, and peas. Choose low GI rice where possible.

For nuts and nut butters, add some veg stick snacks or some popcorn to bulk up your snack if needed.
