You might not believe it is possible to lose weight while on a diet which includes louisiana crab au gratin but it is possible. The key is to not eat louisiana crab au gratin or other high calorie seafood every day but in moderation.

For example, I allow myself these kinds of food once per week. I eat a reduced calorie diet for most of the week, say 1400 to 2000 calories a day, and then on the 7th day, I eat whatever I like – within reason of course.

I have been eating like this for the last 6 weeks and it has helped me to lose 5 kilos. I have not increased my exercise routine or taken any supplements or diet drinks. I have simply been aware of what I eat most days of the week and then eat whatever I feel like one day a week.

I also believe it is helpful if you have a little support when trying to lose weight and for that I signed up with the Biggest Loser club. They have numerous tools to show you how to monitor your progress and reach your goals.
