You might not believe you can lose weight while on a diet plan which includes italian meatloaf with fresh basil and provolone but it is possible. The key is to not eat italian meatloaf with fresh basil and provolone or other high calorie beef/pork/lamb/veal every day but in moderation.

For instance, I allow myself rich food once per week. I eat a reduced calorie diet for 6 days of the week, say 1500 to 2000 calories each day, and then on the 7th day, I eat whatever I want – without going overboard of course.

I have been sticking to this diet for the last 6 weeks and it has aided me to lose 5 kilos. I have not accelerated my exercise routine or taken any pills or diet aids. I have simply been careful of what I eat 6 days per week and then eat whatever I like one day a week.

I also find it makes things easier if you have some support when on a weight loss program and for that I joined the Biggest Loser club. They have numerous tools to help you monitor your progress and achieve your goals.
