You might not believe you can lose weight while on a diet which includes shrewsbury cakes but it is possible. The key is to not eat shrewsbury cakes or other high calorie tea & accompanyments every day but in moderation.
As an example, I allow myself high calorie food one meal per week. I eat a low calorie diet for 6 days of the week, say 1200 to 1800 calories per day, and then one day, I eat anything – within reason of course.
I have been eating like this for the last month and it has enabled me to lose 5 kilos. I have not accelerated my exercise plan or taken any vitamins or diet food. I have just been aware of what I eat most days of the week and then eat whatever I like one day per week.
I also believe it is helpful if you have a little support when trying to lose weight and for that I registered with the Biggest Loser club. They have numerous tools to enable you to monitor your progress and achieve your goals.
