beef lo mein

April 3rd, 2010

You may not think you could lose weight while on a eating plan which includes beef lo mein but it is obtainable. The key is to not eat beef lo mein or other high calorie beef/pork/lamb/veal every day but in moderation.

For example, I allow myself these kinds of food one day per week. I eat a low calorie diet for most of the week, say 1400 to 2000 calories per day, and then on the 7th day, I eat whatever I want – without going overboard of course.

I have been eating like this for the last few weeks and it has helped me to lose 5 kilos. I have not increased my exercise routine or taken any supplements or diet drinks. I have just been conscious of what I eat 6 days per week and then eat whatever I feel like one day a 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 numerous tools to enable you to monitor your progress and attain your goals.
