A lot of water lunch helps lose weight

Eating foods that are rich in water, such as soup, will help you feel fuller for longer and are considered a key to losing weight.

Nutrition experts believe that dishes such as rice and soup will help people eat longer. However, drinking a large cup of water when eating is not as effective as expected, the British Nutrition Foundation said.

This method is based on studies that have shown that although someone will eat a variety of different foods and different days, the amount of food consumed will rarely change. That is, if we eat a lot, but the energy in those dishes is low, we will only have a feeling of fullness. In fact, there is not much energy in the body.

Foods rich in water tend to contain less energy.

A fund spokesman said: ' Studies have shown that people tend to eat the same amount of food each day but not necessarily have the same amount of calories. So we can soothe the body, avoid hunger and hunger, but the energy intake is very low by eating low calorie foods '.

Dr Elisabeth Weichselbaum, a fund's nutrition expert, advises: ' It is advisable to apply the principle against the energy division table, that is, to eat a lot of low-calorie foods, to' load 'moderately the' standing 'food between the power board low amount and high energy foods '.

And the British Dietetic Association (BDA) recommends: eat lots of vegetables but meat, fish and starchy foods should also be available at every dinner.

Food groups divided by energy tables:

- Food at the bottom of the energy table: most vegetables and fruits as well as vegetable soup, low-fat yogurt, baked beans, baked potatoes.

- Middle standing food includes: strawberries and cream, pizza, steak .

- Top ' standing ' foods include: snacks, cheese, chocolate, mayonnaise and butter
