:2 Cod and Brussels
I have caved in to the popular 5:2 diet, if you haven't heard about it, which I doubt here it how it works. For 5 days of the week you can eat your normal food, 2 days of the week you can only eat 500 calories if you're a woman and 600 calories if you're a man. The two diet days must not be consecutive. I try to make Tuesday and Fridays my :2 days. I must say it this diet gives an immediate effect. You should loose about 1 kilo per week with this diet and it really works. So here I am counting calories again. This dish contains around 300 calories and is good for lunch or dinner on diet day.
