You may not accept that it is possible to lose weight while on a diet which includes lokshen kugel but it is feasible. It is fundamental to not eat lokshen kugel or other high calorie desserts every day but in moderation.

For example, I allow myself these kinds of food one meal per week. I eat a low calorie diet 6 days a week, say 1500 to 1800 calories a 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 2 weeks and it has aided me to lose 5 kilos. I have not changed my exercise habits or taken any vitamins or diet aids. I have only been careful of what I eat most days of the week and then eat whatever I want one day of the week.

I also feel it helps to have professional support when trying to lose weight and for that I signed up with the Biggest Loser club. They have many tools to enable you to monitor your progress and achieve your goals.
