You might not believe you could lose weight while on a eating plan which includes texas jambalaya but it is obtainable. The key is to not eat texas jambalaya or other high calorie soups & chili every day but in moderation.

For instance, I allow myself high calorie food one meal per week. I eat a calorie controlled diet for 6 days of the week, say 1200 to 1800 calories a day, and then on the last day, I eat anything – within moderation of course.

I have been sticking to this diet for the last 2 weeks and it has enabled me to lose 5 kilos. I have not accelerated my exercise plan or taken any vitamins or diet drinks. I have simply been aware of what I eat on most days and then eat whatever I want one day per week.

I also find it is helpful if you have some support when trying to lose weight and for that I registered with the Biggest Loser club. They have lots of tools to help you monitor your progress and reach your goals.
