You might not believe you could lose weight while on a diet plan which includes pot roast with vegetables (carne de res con legumbres) but it is feasible. It is crucial to not eat pot roast with vegetables (carne de res con legumbres) or other high calorie beef/pork/lamb/veal every day but in moderation.
This is what I do, I allow myself these kinds of food one day per week. I eat a reduced calorie diet 6 days a week, say 1200 to 2000 calories per day, and then 1 day, I eat what I please – within reason of course.
I have been using this method for the last 6 weeks and it has enabled me to lose 5 kilos. I have not increased my exercise routine or taken any pills or diet food. I have simply been conscious of what I eat 6 days per week and then eat whatever I feel like one day of the week.
I also find it helps to have some support when trying to lose weight and for that I registered with the Biggest Loser club. They have many tools to show you how to monitor your progress and attain your goals.
