Ingredients:
1 whole chicken (2.5 - 3 lbs)
1 tbsp fresh chopped ginger
1 tbsp chopped fresh garlic
1 tsp ground turmeric
1 tbsp light brown sugar
2 tbsp oil
2 stalks fresh lemon grass (bottom 6, only, chopped)
2 tbsp chopped fresh coriander root
2 tbsp fish sauce (nam pla)
Instructions:
Rinse the chicken and pat dry. Split the chicken in
half down the breast or cut into serving sized pieces.
Pound or process the lemon grass, ginger, garlic, and
coriander root in a mortar, blender, or processor
until a smooth paste is formed, adding a little of the
oil if necessary. Add turmeric, brown sugar, fish
sauce, and (remaining) oil. Blend until smooth. Pour
mixture over the chicken, cover, and marinate in the
refrigerator for 2 hours or (up to) overnight. Turn
the pieces periodically to allow them to marinate
evenly.
Prepare hot coals for barbecuing, or preheat the
broiler. Grill the chicken until the juices from the
thickest part run clear, about 20-30 minutes.

Healthy eating is far better than strict dieting, and weight loss achieved by a change of lifestyle lasts far longer than 'faddy' diets that are difficult to adopt for long periods.
Cooking more low fat chicken can enable you to lose weight gradually as part of a a controlled and healthy diet.
