mexican-style beef casserole
July 5th, 2008
You might not accept that you can lose weight while on a eating plan which includes mexican-style beef casserole but it can happen. It is fundamental to not eat mexican-style beef casserole or other high calorie beef/pork/lamb/veal every day but in moderation.
For example, I allow myself high calorie food once per week. I eat a calorie controlled diet 6 days a week, say 1400 to 1600 calories per day, and then on the 7th day, I eat what I please - without going crazy of course.
I have been eating like this for the last few weeks and it has aided me to lose 5 kilos. I have not increased my exercise regime or taken any pills or diet drinks. I have simply been conscious 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 some support when dieting and for that I signed up with the Biggest Loser club. They have numerous tools to help you monitor your progress and achieve your goals.
