Before you start your weight loss marathon, take time to consider how long it took to put the weight on. It would be amazing to push a button and have the weight melt off in a matter of weeks, but that is not only, not practical, it is not safe.

Healthy and nutritious food should be eaten constantly throughout the day. You should consume a minimum of six small meals spaced out evenly over the day. The last meal rather than storing it up, not quite sure when the next meal will be coming that this will trigger your body in to a faster metabolism because it wil get in the pattern of expecting another meal very soon , so it will feel comfortable metabolizing.
