You possibly will not accept that you could lose weight while on a diet which includes mulligatawny soup but it is achievable. It is pivotal to not eat mulligatawny soup or other high calorie soups every day but in moderation.

As an example, I allow myself these kinds of food one meal per week. I eat a healthy diet 6 days a week, say 1200 to 1600 calories a day, and then one day, I eat whatever I want – within reason of course.

I have been eating this way for the last 4 weeks and it has enabled me to lose 5 kilos. I have not increased my exercise routine or taken any vitamins or diet drinks. I have just been aware of what I eat on most days and then eat whatever I feel like one day per week.

On my one non diet day per week, I prefer to eat english food. I never thought I could lose 5 kilos while eating english meals but am very happy to see it is possible. If you want to try some english food, I advise you make mulligatawny soup which is one of my most admired english recipes.
