For those who plan of losing weight in a healthy manner with the new year as a part of their New Year’s resolution, here are some diet plans to follow to maintain your weight and well-being.

A new year means new opportunities, beginnings, promises and on top of that new resolutions. Many people want to kick start their year with good intentions and motivation, and what is a better source of motivation than actual guidelines?
For those who plan on losing weight in a healthy manner with the new year as a part of their New Year’s resolution, here are some diet plans to follow to maintain your weight and well-being:
Low-fat diets
These diets are among one of the most popular weight-loss diets. These are easy and very doable.
All you have to do is to regulate your body’s fat intake. The reason behind this is that fat leads up to twice as more amount of calories in comparison with other nutrients like protein and carbs. There are other benefits to these diets. Following a low-fat diet can reduce risk of getting heart diseases and strokes. These diets also help with diabetes.
The DASH diet
DASH stands for Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension. Hypertension is the clinical term for high blood pressure. DASH diets are designed to prevent hypertension.
These are very healthy as well as effective. A person following a DASH diet has to intake fruits, vegetable, lean meats and vegetables in ample quantities. Salt, added sugars, fat and red meat should be avoided. ‘
Even though Dash diets are not weight-loss diets, a number of people have reported healthy weight-loss after following them.
Intermittent fasting
Intermittent fasting has emerged as one of the most popular ways of losing weight. It doesn’t regulate what you eat. Instead, it focuses on the duration and periods between food intake.
In simple words, the time of eating is restricted as a meaure to limit calorie intake. During the hours you’re allowed to eat, you just have to focus on the calorie intake and you’re good to eat any quantity of food you like.
Low-carb diets
Low-carb diets are one of the most followed and preferred types of weight loss strategies. Keto diets have been very popular for more than a decade.
Low-carb diets restrict the inclusion of carbs in diets. More protein and fat is consumed. There is no scientific proof as of yet, but a number of people have claimed that low-carb diets are more beneficial that low-fat diets.

Priyanka Chopra has launched a homeware collection brand called Sona Home in New York City. Here are the prices of some of the products listed on the website of Sona Home.

Priyanka Chopra Jonas has always taken Indian culture and heritage to a global level. Glorifying the Indian tradition, the Desi girl, has launched a homeware collection brand called Sona Home in New York City. After the successful venture of her restaurant Sona in the US, the actor has launched her own homeware line along with the business partner Maneesh Goyal.
The Sona Home collection includes table linens, playful G & Tea straws, dinnerware, coasters, mugs, and other decor items. Priyanka shared the video of her new decor line on social media, stating that Sona Home brings a piece of India to the US.
Undoubtedly, seeing our culture receive the respect it deserved made people back home happy and proud. In order to find out what was in store for them, they visited the website of PeeCee’s home décor brand. But what surprised the users was the prices of the products, which were said to be too high.
Here are the prices of some of the products listed on the website of Sona Home.
Panna Table cloth costs Rs 30,627.
Sultan’s Garden Oval Platter is worth Rs 15,629.

Indians troll Priyanka Chopra’s Sona Home brand
Many users started trolling PeeCee for heavy pricing. One user commented We have gone from foreigners ripping off people by exoticizing Indian culture and selling things at ludicrous prices to Indians ripping off people by exoticizing Indian culture and seeing things at ludicrous prices.
I’m sorry but this collection looks like it was designed for a retirement home. The colors and style are so antiquated, said another. Yet another commented If anyone pays $400 for a COTTON tablecloth, they deserve that level of highway robbery IMO.
Jitne me bread basket aa rahi utne me 2 jodi jeans, 5 cool tshirt, ek badhiya sneekers aa jaate hai bread ke 10 packets aur unhe rakhne wali peti ke sath. $98 nearly Rs 7500. Just saying, commented another.
Priyanka Chopra about Sona Home
Priyanka Chopra shared a video and gave us a glimpse of some of the pieces in her collection. In a caption she wrote, “I’ve always been a very intentional person with everything that I do, and so when launching SONA Home, @maneeshkgoyal and I wanted to bring our love of our joint heritage, coupled with a penchant for entertaining friends and family at home, to create a brand that I am insanely proud of.”
In addition to being inspired by India, there are many personal tie-ins to this collection. Like the lampshades, which are made using vintage Saris inspired by a beautiful story about Maneesh’s mom (It tears me up every time I hear it), she added.
Sona Home has been created with a lot of love and with a purpose to make every moment luxurious, intentional and special. We’re so happy to welcome you to our table, she concluded.
