The 5 meals a day myth

We read it everywhere – “You should eat five to six times a day if you want to be slim” But is this really true?
 
Weight control is a balance of “calories in” and “calories out”. You don’t have to eat five times a day as you are often told to stay in control of your weight. It is about how much you eat in total and how many calories you burn in total. Everyone is different and what works for some people might not work for you. For some people it is easier to eat more of smaller portions a day and some prefer to eat less often. Either way – what is the most important is that you eat balanced meals and give your body all the nutrients it needs from good high quality sources. Eat the right amount of calories for you and move a lot. It’s easy as that.



 Have a fit day!
