You may not accept that it is possible to lose weight while on a diet which includes baked kidney beans and rice but it is possible. It is crucial to not eat baked kidney beans and rice or other high calorie rice dishes every day but in moderation.

This is what I do, I allow myself high calorie food once per week. I eat a healthy diet for 6 days of the week, say 1400 to 1600 calories per day, and then one day, I eat anything – within moderation of course.

I have been sticking to this diet for the last 2 weeks and it has enabled me to lose 5 kilos. I have not accelerated my exercise regime or taken any pills or diet food. I have simply been careful of what I eat on most days and then eat whatever I like one day of the week.

I also feel it helps to have a little support when trying to lose weight and for that I registered with the Biggest Loser club. They have lots of tools to help you monitor your progress and achieve your goals.
