One of the biggest misconceptions in dieting is that eating less and less often will make you lose weight. First of all, eating more often will keep your metabolism in drive, not park. Skipping meals is a great way to trick into thinking you are starving, which in turn makes it store fat for future use. Eating often is just as important as eating the right things. For example, eating chips or processed carbs often will make you fat, but eating fruits, veggies and protein will help you shed the pounds. Each time you eat, make sure one quarter of what you eat is protein. Protein helps curb your appetite and balance your blood sugar levels.
