Skip A Meal, Gain More Weight! Wetin Again? by modestatus: 1:03am On Sep 08, 2022
And you thought by skipping meals you had this weight issue all sorted, ehn?

Mbanu! Ko le werk!!

Skipping meals (or leaving long gaps between meals) is
a major sin in dieting. It sends the wrong message to the fat stores that the starvation process is underway and should do everything to preserve it or burn it much more slowly.

Suppose you skip breakfast and you haven't eaten since 8:00 p.m. last night. If you eat lunch at noon, you've gone 16 hours without food. At this point, you are not only in a highly catabolic (muscle wasting) state, but you're also sending that starvation signal to your body.

Therefore skipping breakfast is a capital crime, yet everybody is doing it! Ignorance of the masses...

Research shows that one of the most common errors
in skipping breakfast or eating it late, around 10:00 a.m. or even later is people say: "I don't have time!" This is usually the excuse justifying this terrible mistake.

See what happens because of this bad habit...

Suppose you're in a hurry to get to work in the
morning and you bolt out the door without eating breakfast. Your first meal of the day is lunch at noon.

It's moderately sized, let's say 500 calories, consisting of a butter/sardine sandwich on wheat bread and a banana. Sounds fairly healthy so far. By dinner time of 6:00 p.m., hungry don dey waya himself.

So you fight back and destroy a massive plate of Garri for a total of 800 calories.

Later that night you're still hungry and craving something sweet. Some cookies and low-fat milk do the trick for about 300 calories. Then you go right to sleep. Although far from perfect, this menu doesn't sound
like a total disaster to the average person.

But IT IS! A major nightmare

In the long run, this type of diet is a sure way to slow down your metabolism, lose muscle, and gain body fat.

On the other hand, 2400 calories spread out into five or six small meals of 400 - 480 calories each (about 300-350 calories per meal for women), will INCREASE ENERGY, INCREASE MUSCLE GROWTH, and speed up your metabolism without STORING FAT.

Frequent eating can allow you to consume up to 50% more calories without storing an ounce of it as fat!

The above food illustration paints a picture of what goes on in the average life of most people.

However, to get the desired result, you will need to eat in a particular pattern, and eat particular foods with some exercises to get the result you need.

The Flat Belly Miracle product should help with the exact types of foods and exercise types that will get you results. A bonus.

It's about your health. You can only better for it, once you're committed to it.

For those who have taken time to look this over, I hope this will be of benefit to you even more...

There's a balance to eating and our daily movement or activity, that determines whether we continue to get bigger or really start losing weight permanently. The problem then for most and the reason for a 1000 and 1 books and write up is because of the cost of one drug or food type, time or stress to prepare or even exercise.

Not to mention, likely as a result of all the fasting and skipping meals, there's that sharp and painful chest pain which when it starts, is as if their enemy is going to die.

If you've read through the other articles or books or even the above, to motivate yourself to get up to start is a headache in its own. I must confess though, that's where the journey starts o...

If you mean to get there, all well and good. But it starts with the determination, your MINDSET. You can, only if you think so.

I mentioned the issue between eating and keeping the weight off. That's actually between healthy eating habits and regular and appropriate exercise or exertion to keep all the calories (that's just the energy values of the meals) off...

All that English, just means BALANCE. This is usually where most of the problem lies. You fast or skip meals in hope there's weight loss, but the meals eaten or snacks only end up maintaining or increasing the weight.

Therefore, there needs to be a change in the diet, to a healthy one. That way the weight gain from eating is slower..., while the exercise continues to keep the weight off steadily.

Lastly but not least, this is a journey not travelled alone. Friends and family should or encouraged to help, by reminding you, escorting you and encourage you should you trip up. (if that happens more than 2x, you've made it clear you're not ready then). Also seeing your doctor for follow up and regular check up remains imperative...

If you think you need a word or two about how to move forward,
