Hungry in the Evening?


The secret to avoiding hunger pangs in the evening is to spread your calories fairly evenly over the day.  This means always eating breakfast and never skipping a meal. This, in turn, will help keep your blood sugar levels stable, which is important in keeping hunger under control.  Also, try to eat little and often, never going longer than 3-4 hours without a small healthy snack.

 

I also recommend eating high fibre, nutrient-dense foods, which take longer for the body to digest and absorb and should fill you up for longer.  The best way to accomplish this is to avoid foods, and drinks, that contain sugar and ensure that your diet is rich in low glycaemic index (GI) foods. This includes eating wholewheat, brown carbohydrates in place of processed white ones e.g. wholemeal bread, wholewheat pasta or noodles and brown rice. When you have potatoes, make sure that you eat the fibre-rich skin too.

 

Make sure that you have some lean protein with each meal, and snack, as this also tends to fill you up for longer.  For example, a jacket potato and salad is very quickly digested, but by adding some tuna or cottage cheese you can create a much more filling and satisfying meal.    

 

Finally, if you know that you are going to want to have an evening snack it is a good idea to save a few calories and plan one into your day.  That way you remain in control and are less likely to eat something that you may later regret!  Good luck.

Meaning of Life?

Why build or own something or bind with someone when we know very well that

Death takes away what we hold dear

And Life takes away whatever is left

Shiv Mahadev says

Shiv Mahadev says

There's no God. Why do you need one? Nobody is going to come and save you. You have to help yourself. But then again Do you need saving? If so, from what?

There's no Heaven or Hell. Only Birth is the beginning and death is the end. There's no previous life or next life. No punya or paap follows you from any life to the next. All your punya paap will be dealt in this life only. There's no cycle of birth and rebirth.

Human life is no special from any animal's life. That's why one has to respect all life on earth.

No one single man is any special. Each and every one of us can be God for ourselves. Everyone of us has the potential to be GOD.

There's no question that cannot be answered. The universe is made in such a way that every question has an answer. All One has to do is look keenly for them. Help, in answering the questions, is always extended to one who truly seeks it. The more important thing is whether one has the right question to start with.

Society and social order are human creations and have no significance in the real world. The universe doesn't come with a manual of rules and principles. Freedom of the self is the key word in this universe. Social orders are only for inter personal socially acceptable interactions. But still these social orders bind you in several ways in the name of individual Liberty. How ridiculous is this. Liberation of the self is actually a liberation from these bonds. One has to rise above not only this social order but also above one's own self to the level of the universe to become One's own God.

This is what that IAS guy had also meant when he said there is no difference between you and not you in this universe, you and everything else in the universe are inescapably interwoven. There is no boundary between you and the rest of the universe.
