Smart Weight Management and Dieting

Keeping at your most comfortable weight means focusing on a healthy lifestyle, combining healthy foods with plenty of regular exercise.

A young woman with long hair and wearing a pale green strappy sundress sits at an outdoor table enjoying breakfast. In the background, sunlight filters through trees.

The best way to obtain all the nutrients you need is to eat a variety of foods from these five groups every day:

  • Plenty of vegetables, including different types and colours, and legumes/beans.
  • Fruit.
  • Whole grains such as breads, cereals, rice, pasta, noodles, polenta, couscous, oats, quinoa and barley.
  • Lean meats and poultry, fish, eggs, tofu, nuts and seeds, and legumes/beans.
  • Milk, yoghurt, cheese and/or their alternatives, mostly reduced fat.
  • Drink plenty of water.
  • Limit foods containing saturated fat, added sugars, added salt and alcohol.
