For actually losing weight: Skip rice, potato, oil and all fats, refined flour and sugar of course. No naan or tortilla with refined flour.
Gradually , minimal oil is added but that is about it. This is not a long-term diet. Long-term would mean more whole grains, less oil or butter/ghee, all fruits and veggies, and very little sugar.
I am no expert, but know someone who lost 10 kgs on a
1. "
no-oil-chapati-with-leafy-greens-and-two-breakfast-bananas-diet"
So basically, two meals: chapatis, leafy-green sabji and a banana.
OR , two bananas for breakfast and then chapati-leafygreen-sabji for lunch and dinner. They just wanted to keep it simple, of course one can add fruit.
2. "
low-carb-no-oil-mung-mini-roti-sabji-diet"
In this one, they fill up on no-oil sprouted green mung soup (like daal), or mung-daal, minimized intake of no-oil mini-rotis, lots of raw salad, and very-low-oil sabji. Again 2 meals spread into 3 if need be.
Whole wheat chapatis or tortilla are good enough. Recently we have the millet and quinoa campaign over wheat which is quite good, but it also refers to the wheat breads found in the market, not stone-ground or whole-wheat no-fat chapatis/tortilla.
