Eat Small Meals Throughout The Day
This advice is old but still very true. Eating three meals a day and not skipping meals makes it easier to control the level of your hunger. Dividing your daily calories between three meals also will help prevent overeating, especially at the end of the day. Remember, the body jealously guards fat stores and will initiate hunger to stimulate you to eat, rather than allow you to use stored fat. Most people respond to the body’s hunger signal, consuming more calories and allowing gradual accumulation of fat stores. To help control hunger, eat breakfast within two hours of waking. Plan to stop eating within two hours of bedtime to promote the return of hunger in the morning. If you wake up hungry in the morning, and never did before, you’ll know that you are on the right track.
