pastel de choclo

March 4th, 2010

You might not accept that it is possible to lose weight while on a diet plan which includes pastel de choclo but it is possible. The key is to not eat pastel de choclo or other high calorie beef/pork/lamb/veal every day but in moderation.

For instance, I allow myself these kinds of food one meal per week. I eat a reduced calorie diet for most of the week, say 1400 to 1800 calories each day, and then one day, I eat whatever I want – within moderation of course.

I have been eating like this for the last 6 weeks and it has helped me to lose 5 kilos. I have not increased my exercise routine or taken any pills or diet food. I have just been conscious of what I eat 6 days per week and then eat whatever I feel like one day of the week.

I also believe it is helpful if you have some support when trying to lose weight and for that I signed up with the Biggest Loser club. They have many tools to show you how to monitor your progress and achieve your goals.
