sizzling onion fajitas

June 1st, 2009

You might not accept that you could lose weight while on a diet plan which includes sizzling onion fajitas but it is feasible. It is crucial to not eat sizzling onion fajitas or other high calorie fajitas every day but in moderation.

For example, I allow myself moderately high calorie food one day per week. I eat a calorie controlled diet 6 days a week, say 1400 to 1800 calories per day, and then 1 day, I eat anything – without going overboard of course.

I have been eating this way for the last few weeks and it has enabled me to lose 5 kilos. I have not changed my exercise routine or taken any vitamins or diet food. I have simply been aware of what I eat on most days and then eat whatever I feel like one day per week.

I also find it makes things easier 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 show you how to monitor your progress and reach your goals.
