You may not think it is possible to lose weight while on a diet which includes shredded beef (carne de res deshebrada) but it is feasible. It is crucial to not eat shredded beef (carne de res deshebrada) or other high calorie beef/pork/lamb/veal every day but in moderation.
For instance, I allow myself moderately high calorie food once per week. I eat a healthy diet 6 days a week, say 1200 to 1800 calories a day, and then on the last day, I eat what I please – without going overboard of course.
I have been using this method for the last few weeks and it has helped me to lose 5 kilos. I have not changed my exercise routine or taken any pills or diet drinks. I have simply been aware of what I eat on most days and then eat whatever I like one day of the week.
I also find it is helpful if you have professional support when trying to lose weight and for that I registered with the Biggest Loser club. They have numerous tools to help you monitor your progress and attain your goals.

This is the traditional Mexican filling for tacos. It is preferred over the ground meat filling found in many restaurants. It is wonderful for making burritos, chimichangas, taquitos, and in carne seca.
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 (2 1/2 to 3 pound) beef brisket (smaller thinner
end, trimmed of all fat)
1 ancho or New Mexico dried chile,
stemmed and seeded
3 to 4 slices onion
1 bay leaf
1/2 teaspoon Mexican oregano
Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Heat a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add oil and brown the beef on all sides. Pour off as much oil as possible. Just barely cover the meat with water. Bring to a boil. Skim off any scum that rises to the surface. Add remaining ingredients. Cover the pot and place it in the oven until the meat is tender, about 2 to 2 1/2 hours.
Remove the meat, reserving broth for other uses. When the meat is cool enough to handle, shred it. Hold a fork in each hand, and shred the beef with the forks.
