The sad thing is some people try a plan and it doesn't work then they give up thinking nothing will work, when the plan they need maybe the next one they try. Thats why its so important to keep trying. You Will Find The One For You!! Protein Shakes,I might add, seem to be one of those things that run through weight loss sites that hold true to the foundation of a good diet plan. <strong>It took me awhile to find the plan for me because I refused to give up the foods I loved. Take the skin off my chicken=No Way! Give up that chocolate cake=Double No Way!</strong> I learned how and when to do it and through in a little exercise and Feel Good, Fit and Strong-----Don't mind posing in the mirror either :) That's why I share what I did with people because I know how it feels to succeed and for those who can't afford the ebook or just are outright over weight and frugal I started a site with lots of free videos,pictures and plans for success. Keep Trying People-You will Get There Thanks for the agreement Muata.

And looking at the enormous amount of calories bodybuilders need to consume to keep all that muscle, it's no wonder they would eat many meals throughout the day. Can you imagine eating 5000-6000 calories in just 3 meals? Gag ... It's totally up to the individual and what works for them. Personally, I eat no more than two big meals a day combined with protein shakes and other healthy snacks like nuts, seeds, veggies, etc., and I've maintained my 100+ lb. weight loss and workout 5-6 days. So, as Israel said, find what works for you, but don't believe the hype of the day about meal frequency. For more information check out Jamie Hale, Anthony Colpo, Lyle McDonald or Alan Aragon's books.

The thing that you have to do is to keep trying different plans until you find the one that gets you the results you are looking for. The most important thing is to keep on trying and you will find it. If you check out enough diet sites you will find certain things that run through all of them and these generally are the things that you use to create your diet foundation. I kept on searching until I found one that would allow me to eat whatever I wanted and still get in shape. I also shared this with some other people who thank me daily. Keep trying and don't stop!

When I stopped patting myself on the back and taking bows over the "I QUIT" accomplishment, I looked down and noticed 35 lbs that have never been there before. I've joined a gym - figure it's better to tackle this problem now than to wait and see if that number doubles in the next year!! I'll be checking this site out for more tips. Thanks.

You would be amazed what some people put in the mouths without know how many calories they have. Just a Starbucks moca-capa-whatever-it's-called contains hundreds of wasted, empty calories. Some people have 2 to 4 a day. That's at least a few thousands calories just from their morning and lunch coffees. Sad. Sorry about that, just saw this in the spam filter.

I do notice, especially when I'm active, that I lack energy at times during the day. I think this can probably be attributed to not eating small amounts throughout the course of the entire day. I'm thinking that I will start to adjust and do this. Thanks for the tips. I’m a person who falls victim to eating a few large meals as opposed to smaller ones throughout the day.

Yep, eating smalle meals more often has many benefits that you have listed as well as keep your BMR at a constant level instead of the 'roller coaster' effect. I find that once a person starts to increase their activity, and decrease their carelessness in what goes in their mouth, they automatically (without theme even noticing it!) start to eat more frequently! Due to their increased metabolism. :) The food triangle has changed a bit since we were in school!

But then again who wants to slam down a protein shake.
