southwest chicken soup

June 6th, 2009

You may not believe you can lose weight while on a diet which includes southwest chicken soup but it is feasible. It is pivotal to not eat southwest chicken soup or other high calorie soups every day but in moderation.

For example, I allow myself moderately high calorie food one meal per week. I eat a reduced calorie diet 6 days a week, say 1200 to 1800 calories each day, and then one day, I eat whatever I like – within moderation of course.

I have been eating like this for the last 6 weeks and it has aided me to lose 5 kilos. I have not accelerated my exercise routine or taken any pills or diet food. I have simply been conscious of what I eat on most days and then eat whatever I like one day a week.

I also believe it is helpful if you have a little support when trying to lose weight and for that I signed up with the Biggest Loser club. They have many tools to show you how to monitor your progress and attain your goals.
