Meal breakdown

A little advice on how to break down your meals for successful weight loss or control.

First - know when you are hungriest - for me it is dinner and after.

For those of us who like our snacks at night I'd suggest.

- A cup of coffee or tea(no calories here folks)
- 30 minutes to an hour
- Breakfast (protein and fiber are your friends!!) - try to keep this your low calorie meal of the day
- More coffee or tea

- Snack time (I try to wait until 10), I recommend a vegetable. (Carrots for me)

- Lunch time - honestly most days I don't make it past 11, but that seems to work out for me
- Make this your second biggest meal
- After lunch you should have about half of your daily calories eaten, unless you snack at night a lot

- Afternoon snack, I don't normally have one, but make sure I have food if I feel like I need one.

- Dinner time, Biggest meal, probably.

- Why not sneak in a walk after dinner? The dishes won't mind!

- Late night snack - if you are going to have one try to make sure you have it before 8


I'll go into more food detail in the next few days, but for now it is bed time - no one is good at personal change on too little sleep!!
