orange-date cake

August 14th, 2009

You possibly will not believe it is possible to lose weight while on a diet which includes orange-date cake but it is feasible. It is fundamental to not eat orange-date cake or other high calorie deserts every day but in moderation.

For 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 1400 to 1800 calories each day, and then on the 7th day, I eat anything - within reason of course.

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

I also believe it makes things easier if you have a little support when on a weight loss program and for that I joined the Biggest Loser club. They have lots of tools to enable you to monitor your progress and reach your goals.
