does dahi increase weight - #25516
I am really curious about this whole dahi thing and weight gain, you know? A couple weeks ago, I started eating more dahi because I read somewhere that it's super healthy and good for digestion. But now, I’m kinda freaking out. My friends say that dahi can be heavy, and I worry that it might actually lead to weight gain. I mean, I want to be healthy but not at the cost of packing on the pounds. Like, I usually have it in my morning smoothie with fruits, which seemed like a great idea, but recently I've noticed my jeans feel a bit tighter. Ugh. Does dahi increase weight for real? I've also heard some people say it's great for managing weight, while others claim the opposite. Am I overthinking this? I mean, I guess moderation is key, but how much is too much? Should I cut back on my dahi intake? Really hope someone can clear this up for me!

is khakhra healthy - #23687
I am really curious because I’ve recently started including khakhra in my diet after hearing about it from a friend. Like, she said it’s a great snack and generally healthy. But then I found myself wondering, is khakhra healthy? I mean, I'm trying to eat better and shed some pounds since I've noticed my energy levels dropping and I feel bloated after meals, especially when I munch on those store-bought snacks that are just full of junk! Last week, I had a little too much of that packaged stuff and felt awful... anyway, I've been munching on khakhra now instead and it feels lighter, but I don't really know the nutritional side of it. I've read that it’s made from whole wheat. Does that make it significantly better? I hear some folks say it's a good source of fiber, but are there any hidden ingredients to watch out for? My friend often pairs it with curd or chutney, but, like, I don’t want to load up on extra calories if I can avoid it. Any tips on whether khakhra can help in managing weight or if I might be just tricking myself into thinking it's a healthy option?
