champorado

August 13th, 2008

You may not believe it is possible to lose weight while on a diet which includes champorado but it is feasible. It is fundamental to not eat champorado or other high calorie desserts every day but in moderation.

This is what I do, I allow myself moderately high calorie food one day per week. I eat a healthy diet for most of the week, say 1400 to 2000 calories per day, and then on the 7th day, I eat what I please – within reason of course.

I have been sticking to this diet for the last 6 weeks and it has enabled me to lose 5 kilos. I have not changed my exercise routine or taken any supplements or diet food. I have simply been conscious of what I eat on most days and then eat whatever I like one day per week.

I also find it is helpful if you have a little support when trying to lose weight and for that I registered with the Biggest Loser club. They have several tools to show you how to monitor your progress and reach your goals.
