You may not accept that it is possible to lose weight while on a eating plan which includes braised veal shanks, milan style but it is feasible. It is fundamental to not eat braised veal shanks, milan style or other high calorie beef/pork/lamb/veal every day but in moderation.

For instance, I allow myself moderately high calorie food once per week. I eat a reduced calorie diet 6 days a week, say 1200 to 1600 calories each day, and then on the last day, I eat whatever I want – within reason of course.

I have been eating this way for the last few weeks and it has aided me to lose 5 kilos. I have not accelerated my exercise regime or taken any vitamins or diet food. I have simply been aware of what I eat on most days and then eat whatever I feel like one day per week.

I also believe it helps to have professional support when dieting and for that I joined the Biggest Loser club. They have many tools to help you monitor your progress and attain your goals.
