You wont get over-hungry, and thus overeat at the next meal
You will encourage an increase in your metabolism (this is KEY)
*Snacks should be small, depending on your caloric needs (e.g. small piece of
fruit, etc.) For more consistent weight losssubstitute one of the meals with a
protein shake 200 calories or less.
The most important aspects of this eating schedule are that you DO eat
breakfast, and that you DO stop eating 3 hours BEFORE bedtime. You
might start to get hungry before bedtime, but you will enjoy 8 hours of
solid fat burning if you can control yourself. By allowing your body to
sleep in fasting mode meaning you are not in the midst of digesting a
meal your body will access stored fat for energy. What better time to be
slightly hungry than while you sleep? You wake up hungry and you eat
breakfast on schedule!

I will do my best to master the Success
Habits one more day.
I feel in control of myself today.
I took responsibility for my actions
today.
I ate the proper quantity of food.
I ate three meals, and took 20-30 min to
eat.
I ate only what I planned to eat.
At the store:
Look at the store advertisement for food that is on sale
Choose low-cost protein foods, such as fish, eggs, milk, chicken, and
legumes (dry beans)
Choose generic brand food
Decide which size package is right for youremember, bigger packages
are not always the best value
Do not buy many ready-to-eat products; they are more expensive
Share large packages with a friend
Check all packages for freshness and expiration dates
Look for local, farm-fresh products at farmers markets or Chinatown
markets. Be wary of the value associated with imported natural, healthy
or organic foods that can be a lot more expensive
Buy fresh produce only in the amounts you need
Consider asking the butcher to cut smaller pieces of meat for you
In preparing foods:
Make large amounts of food that you like at one time
Refrigerate some of it to eat the next day
Freeze some of the food by putting it in small containers
Write the date and type of food on it before freezing
