rice and nut croquettes

September 21st, 2009

You may not believe you can lose weight while on a eating plan which includes rice and nut croquettes but it can happen. The key is to not eat rice and nut croquettes or other high calorie potatoes, noodles, starches every day but in moderation.

As an example, I allow myself these kinds of food once per week. I eat a reduced calorie diet for most of the week, say 1200 to 1600 calories per day, and then 1 day, I eat whatever I like – without going crazy of course.

I have been eating this way for the last few weeks and it has helped me to lose 5 kilos. I have not changed my exercise habits or taken any vitamins or diet aids. I have only been careful of what I eat 6 days per week and then eat whatever I like one day per week.

I also find it helps to have some support when dieting and for that I signed up with the Biggest Loser club. They have numerous tools to show you how to monitor your progress and reach your goals.
