[mm107]

Try making your portions smaller. If you are eating what you would eat for a meal if you were only eating 3 times a day your portions are probably too large. I have no idea what you are eating now, but make each meal a little smaller and eating more frequently will be easier. Just make sure you are eating your calorie requirements.

Most fitness conscious people already understand the importance of meal frequency, but they figure they can "get by" with three "square" meals.

Comparing three "squares" to six meals a day is like comparing a Porsche 911 Turbo to a Yugo. Yes, you can get some results with three well constructed meals, but you'll never get anywhere near your maximum potential (and it will take a lot longer).

The benefits of frequent eating include:
a. Faster metabolic rate
b. Higher energy levels
c. Less storage of body fat due to smaller portions
d. Reduced hunger and cravings
e. Steadier blood sugar and insulin levels
f. More calories usable for muscle growth
g. Better absorption and utilization of nutrients

Uhm, meal frequency actually has very little to do with metabolism, sorry. The main thing is still calories. Why worry about nominal fucking details? Do more stuff, eat less stuff. VOILA! Lose weight.

Anthrax that is horrible advice, im sorry. If you are eating in say 5 or 6 hour intervals then your body goes into starvation mode which will slower your metabolism. Also if you are aiming to eat lets say 200 g of protein throughout the day are you going to tell me that you are eating around 70 grams of protein per meal?

Next you are going tell everyone a calorie is a calorie and that eating 2000 calories of whatever you choose will get you the same results as breaking down your macronutrient ratios evenly. Bottom line is eating spaced out and smaller meals will get you MORE results than eating 3 meals a day.

Grab a clue When someone ask for advice you should really have some idea of the truth before you post something that stupid.

When you don't eat enough your metabolism actually slows way down and your body trys to store the fat you have.

You people are seriously fucking morons. Same as with training, you follow the bullshit perpetuaed by bodybuilders. You don't go into a starvation mode after 4-6 fucking hours you dipshits. How retarded can you be? And there's a nominal effect on metabolism between 3 meals and 6 meals.

And a calorie is a fucking calorie, douche bag. 2,000 calories is 2,000 calories. If you have a negative energy balance, regardless of what it's from (say, cookies) you will lose weight. This is fucking elementary, but you people are idiotic enough to believe you starve if you eat three meals a day.

Oh wait, and let me guess, you can't digest more than 30-40 grams of protein per meal, right?

Fuck you people. Seriously, I'm so fed up with your idiocy. You continue to perpetuate the same bullshit time and again. Morons.

Hey smart guy 2000 calories of fast food isnt going to give you the same results as 2000 calories from a good diet. Have you even heard of insulin? Maybe if you pulled your head out of your fat ass you would realize that insulin effects lipolysis. If you are having high fructose corn syrup all day you arent going to burn as much fat as if you were having low gi carbs all day. Regardless if your diet is below your calorie expenditure.
