You possibly will not accept that you could lose weight while on a eating plan which includes miso shiru but it can happen. It is pivotal to not eat miso shiru or other high calorie soups every day but in moderation.

For example, I allow myself moderately high calorie food one meal per week. I eat a calorie controlled diet 6 days a week, say 1500 to 1600 calories each day, and then on the last day, I eat whatever I like – 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 changed my exercise habits or taken any pills or diet drinks. I have only been aware of what I eat 6 days per week and then eat whatever I want one day of the week.

I also think 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 enable you to monitor your progress and reach your goals.

4 cups vegetable stock
24 well-washed spinach leaves
1/2 pound soft, medium or firm bean curd, cut into 3/4-inch cubes
2 scallions, cut into very fine rings (use both white and green portions)
2 1/2 to 4 tablespoons miso
Pinch of cayenne

Put the stock into a medium pot and bring to a simmer. Add the spinach leaves and bring to a simmer again. Cook until the leaves wilt, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the bean curd and scallions. Simmer for 30 seconds. Reduce heat to low.

Put the miso in a small sieve and lower it into the soup (you may have to move the bean curd pieces aside). Push the miso through with a spoon.

Turn off the heat, stir once, sprinkle with cayenne and serve.

Makes 2 to 4 servings.
