gobhi ki biriyani

October 18th, 2008

You may not believe it is possible to lose weight while on a diet which includes gobhi ki biriyani but it is obtainable. It is pivotal to not eat gobhi ki biriyani or other high calorie vegetables every day but in moderation.

This is what I do, I allow myself these kinds of food one meal per week. I eat a low calorie diet for 6 days of the week, say 1400 to 1800 calories per day, and then on the last day, I eat anything - without going crazy 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 changed my exercise regime or taken any pills or diet food. I have only been careful of what I eat 6 days per week and then eat whatever I feel like one day per week.

I also find it makes things easier if you have some support when dieting and for that I registered with the Biggest Loser club. They have lots of tools to show you how to monitor your progress and attain your goals.
