You may not think it is possible to lose weight while on a eating plan which includes grilled eggplant with soy sauce but it is obtainable. The key is to not eat grilled eggplant with soy sauce or other high calorie vegetables & salads every day but in moderation.

As an example, I allow myself high calorie food one day per week. I eat a low calorie diet 6 days a week, say 1200 to 1600 calories each day, and then 1 day, I eat what I please – without going crazy of course.

I have been using this method for the last few weeks and it has helped me to lose 5 kilos. I have not changed my exercise habits or taken any pills or diet drinks. I have just been careful of what I eat 6 days per week and then eat whatever I want one day per week.

On my one free day per week, I like to eat vietnamese food. I never believed I could lose 5 kilos while eating vietnamese meals but am very elated to see it does work. If you would like to try some vietnamese food, I advise you make grilled eggplant with soy sauce which is one of my favourite vietnamese recipes.

Grilled Eggplant with Soy Sauce (Vietnamese Vegetarian Version)

2 Asian eggplants (long and thin,
    but not baby eggplants)
4 scallions, minced
2 tablespoons peanut oil
4 teaspoons soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon fish sauce

Prick the eggplants in several places with a fork, then grill over a charcoal or gas grill for about 20 minutes or until the flesh is soft but before the skin burns. Remove them from the grill.

When they are cool enough to handle, peel them and cut them in half lengthwise. Put the scallions into a bowl. Heat the oil in a pan until very hot, then pour it over the scallions. Drain them immediately. Sprinkle the scallions over the eggplants, then gently pour the soy and fish sauces on top.

You can alter the recipe to make it quite a bit healthier or with not so many calories as this can assist you to lose 5 kilos quickly. It was successful for me and could help you to lose weight also.
