You possibly will not accept that you could lose weight while on a eating plan which includes baked macaroni with beef and cheese (pasticcio) but it is feasible. The key is to not eat baked macaroni with beef and cheese (pasticcio) or other high calorie pasta, rice, starches every day but in moderation.

As an example, I allow myself these kinds of food one meal per week. I eat a calorie controlled diet for 6 days of the week, say 1400 to 1600 calories per day, and then 1 day, I eat anything – without going overboard of course.

I have been using this method for the last 6 weeks and it has aided me to lose 5 kilos. I have not accelerated my exercise regime or taken any supplements or diet aids. I have just been careful of what I eat 6 days per week and then eat whatever I feel like one day per week.

I also find it makes things easier if you have a little support when on a weight loss program and for that I signed up with the Biggest Loser club. They have numerous tools to help you monitor your progress and reach your goals.
