chicken enchiladas

June 16th, 2008

You possibly will not believe you can lose weight while on a diet plan which includes chicken enchiladas but it is possible. The key is to not eat chicken enchiladas or other high calorie enchiladas every day but in moderation.

As an example, I allow myself high calorie food one day per week. I eat a reduced calorie diet for most of the week, say 1200 to 1600 calories a day, and then on the last day, I eat whatever I like – without going crazy of course.

I have been using this method for the last 4 weeks and it has enabled me to lose 5 kilos. I have not increased my exercise routine or taken any pills or diet drinks. I have only been aware of what I eat on most days and then eat whatever I like one day of the week.

I also think it helps to have a little support when on a weight loss program and for that I registered with the Biggest Loser club. They have many tools to enable you to monitor your progress and achieve your goals.
