fried squid

July 30th, 2009

You may not accept that you can lose weight while on a diet plan which includes fried squid but it is possible. It is pivotal to not eat fried squid or other high calorie seafood every day but in moderation.

This is what I do, I allow myself rich food one day per week. I eat a calorie controlled diet 6 days a week, say 1200 to 1800 calories per day, and then one day, I eat whatever I want – without going crazy of course.

I have been eating like this for the last 6 weeks and it has helped me to lose 5 kilos. I have not changed my exercise plan or taken any pills or diet drinks. I have just been aware of what I eat most days of the week and then eat whatever I want one day of the week.

I also think 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 achieve your goals.
