One thing that everyone always does when we want to lose weight is eat less. This is one of the worst things you can do unless you are eating way over what your daily caloric intake is. This is because when your body senses that you are not taking in as much food it decides you are going to starve. This triggers the conserve fat mode and you will actually not lose weight and or may gain weight. Also one of the first things the body decides to eat first is the muscle because it is packed with protein and gives the best energy, so not only will you not lose weight you will actually lose muscle. When you lose muscle your ability to burn more calories goes down. The best thing you can do is split up your 3 meals a day to 6 small meals a day and eat every 3 hours or so and you need to drink lots of water.

When you do this you will feel full and you keep your metabolism going all day long. You should try drinking at least 1 gallon a day or close to it. Protein has proven to be one of the best things to eat to keep your feeling full and give your energy. It also feeds your muscles and that is important for those that are working out.

If you can’t work out at least try the 6 small meals a day for at least a month and I think you will see a difference. These 6 meals need to be healthy meal and when you eat protein it should be things like grilled or baked skinless chicken breast or learn turkey breast or egg whites with a little yoke (egg beaters work too). Fish is another excellent source, but I for one do not like fish. If you do like fish you need to steam, poach, or bake it so that its healthy. The other thing that you want to eat is low GI carb items and eat lots of veggies. Raw veggies are better than cooked ones and they will make you feel very full.
