greek meatballs

March 31st, 2009

You might not accept that it is possible to lose weight while on a eating plan which includes greek meatballs but it is feasible. It is pivotal to not eat greek meatballs or other high calorie beef/pork/lamb/veal every day but in moderation.

For example, I allow myself moderately high calorie food once per week. I eat a reduced calorie diet for most of the week, say 1400 to 2000 calories a day, and then 1 day, I eat whatever I like – without going overboard of course.

I have been eating like this for the last 4 weeks and it has helped me to lose 5 kilos. I have not accelerated my exercise regime or taken any vitamins or diet drinks. I have just been conscious of what I eat 6 days per week and then eat whatever I feel like one day a week.

I also feel it helps to have a little support when trying to lose weight and for that I joined the Biggest Loser club. They have lots of tools to help you monitor your progress and attain your goals.
