You might not accept that it is possible to lose weight while on a diet plan which includes linguine with white clam sauce but it is achievable. It is crucial to not eat linguine with white clam sauce or other high calorie pasta every day but in moderation.
For instance, I allow myself moderately high calorie food once per week. I eat a healthy diet for most of the week, say 1500 to 1600 calories per day, and then on the last day, I eat anything – within reason of course.
I have been using this method for the last few weeks and it has aided me to lose 5 kilos. I have not increased my exercise plan or taken any supplements or diet aids. I have only been conscious of what I eat most days of the week and then eat whatever I like one day of the week.
I also feel it helps to have professional support when dieting and for that I signed up with the Biggest Loser club. They have numerous tools to show you how to monitor your progress and achieve your goals.

Serve this dish from Northern Italy with a green salad tossed with a sharp vinaigrette dressing.
1 medium onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
3 tablespoons butter or margarine
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
3 (6 1/2 ounce) cans minced clams (with liquid)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon dried basil leaves
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon salt
3 quarts water
8 ounces uncooked linguine
1/4 cup minced parsley
Grated Parmesan cheese
Cook and stir onion and garlic in butter in 2-quart saucepan until onion is tender; stir in flour. Add clams, 1/2 teaspoon salt, basil and pepper. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and simmer 5 minutes.
Add 1 tablespoon salt to rapidly boiling water in Dutch oven. Add linguine gradually so that water continues to boil. If linguine strands are left whole, place one end in water; as they soften, gradually coil them into water. Boil uncovered, stirring occasionally, just until tender, 7 to 10 minutes. Test by cutting several strands with fork against side of Dutch oven. Drain quickly in colander or sieve. Add parsley to clam sauce. Serve sauce over hot linguine; sprinkle with cheese.
Yields 5 or 6 servings.
