You may not believe it is possible to lose weight while on a diet plan which includes orange-almond cake (torta de almendra) but it is feasible. It is crucial to not eat orange-almond cake (torta de almendra) or other high calorie deserts every day but in moderation.

As an example, I allow myself these kinds of food one meal per week. I eat a low calorie diet for 6 days of the week, say 1500 to 1600 calories each day, and then one day, I eat what I please – without going crazy of course.

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

I also feel it is helpful if you have some support when on a weight loss program and for that I registered with the Biggest Loser club. They have numerous tools to show you how to monitor your progress and attain your goals.
