They’re easy to make, convenient to eat, and simple to customize with your favorite ingredients, so they’re perfect for a quick lunch. Healthy wraps also make for a wonderful dinner when you don’t have the time to prepare more complicated dishes. The best part? You’ll have a filling and tasty meal without a sinkful of dishes to wash after you’re done eating! Want to enjoy some healthy wraps? Here are some ideas to get you started:</span></span></div> <b id="docs-internal-guid-f04b193b-96aa-df4c-8013-7868bb4fecf5" style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></b> <br /> <div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 4pt; margin-top: 4pt;"> <span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Lunch: When it comes to lunch, you’ll probably want to fill your healthy wraps with ingredients that are satisfying without being too heavy. To make your wrap more filling, try spreading a thin layer of hummus on your tortilla before topping with the other ingredients. Be sure to pack your healthy wraps with plenty of fresh greens. From there, you can add a mixture of fresh veggies. You can also experiment by adding some fruit to your healthy wraps. Grapes, apples, and strawberries all make great additions, especially for wraps filled with chicken. Add some of your favorite protein (chicken, quinoa, beans, etc.) to make it even more nutritious.</span></span></div> <b style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></b> <br /> <div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 4pt; margin-top: 4pt;"> <span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Dinner: If you want to try making healthy wraps for dinner, you can try using the lighter ideas for lunch wraps, or you can experiment by adding some ingredients that involve a little more prep time. Try making a burrito-inspired wrap by adding some brown rice, or get creative by adding ingredients such as grilled mushrooms, dried cranberries, or even some baked sweet potato. Avoid adding fatty spreads such as mayonnaise. Instead, opt for healthier (and more flavorful) alternatives such as salsa, mustard, or a light vinaigrette.</span></span></div> <span style="color: #444444; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><span style="font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Healthy wraps are one of my favorite things to make because they make it easier to pack a lot of nutrition in one portable meal. They also give you a lot of freedom to be creative with what you put in your meal. With simple ingredients, you can create amazing flavor combinations that your whole family can enjoy. To make your healthy wraps even easier, try preparing fillings in advance and storing them in the refrigerator. A few minutes of prep work can make this quick meal even quicker! If you have some favorite quick healthy treats, I’d love to hear about them!

Food will give them.<br /> <br /> People who work out regularly and want clear results have to focus on their pre -and post-workout meals. This food intake within the windows before or after your workout will help you succeed and get results faster and in a healthy way. Starving is never an option! You can’t build a body this way, you’ll only break it down resulting in health issues like hormonal issues or osteoporosis, ect. So.. food is your friend when you are trying to lose weight, gain muscle, lose fat or strengthening your bones and joints.<br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiM9PV2YvJdhApjUFCtpeubOklFgNXDy7o-2-vlR0lxNQHU4cT7yHksUXmDiSPwyNdEQxXIJ7trYcDQ400JV_2uzAiyHec6NgcPdgyBbQWGoN2XyDbfFIiQ5t-YLKrdbpKxbYcc4db76NI9/s1600/food.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiM9PV2YvJdhApjUFCtpeubOklFgNXDy7o-2-vlR0lxNQHU4cT7yHksUXmDiSPwyNdEQxXIJ7trYcDQ400JV_2uzAiyHec6NgcPdgyBbQWGoN2XyDbfFIiQ5t-YLKrdbpKxbYcc4db76NI9/s320/food.jpg" width="320" /></a></div> <br /> The reasons why you need a before and after workout meal is crucial for two basic reasons:<br /> <br /> - What you eat before a workout is needed to fuel your body, so it has enough energy to give you your maximal performance during the workout. If your body lacks fuel, you’ll feel the lack of energy after a few reps. Followed by feeling very faint, dizzy or nauseous. This can lead to bad form, injury and fainting or throwing up. As you might guess: this won’t benefit your progress in any way. So, eat well before a workout and harvest those results. (This meal is called the pre-workout meal.) <br /> <br /> - What you eat after a workout is needed to help your body to regenerate. The body needs to recover after every workout. It needs fuel to feed the muscles, the nervous-system, to stabilize your entire body after such an intense ride. It needs food to underline the workout you’ve just done and to feel fabulous and awesome without feeling fatigued, incredibly sore or too malnourished that you might increase your risk for injury in the future. (This meal is called the post-workout meal.)<br /> <br /> People often get confused by all the information about pre -and post workout meals if you start googling it. You see a lot of science stuff fly by, time frames, you get several amino-acids supplements tossed towards you, you’ll suddenly have to take out a scale, but fear not! All you need is carbs and protein. No need to over complicate stuff. Healthy carbs & healthy protein. <br /> <br /> Pre Workout Meal:<br /> This meal is the last thing you will eat before your workout. It will help your body to kick ass.<br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLM6gABeNb-89ze6n28aRTJVlxkIGUun_aws1o08sJfWsM6c3zJi2AppASyRLKsWEeJ6VDat1mjkN35z9pEazF_uaUpKqBQtKOx66-MEAtBMmfQxQm1R5_WrwDwTy452iNtkItwgpMJTOI/s1600/oatswithstraw.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLM6gABeNb-89ze6n28aRTJVlxkIGUun_aws1o08sJfWsM6c3zJi2AppASyRLKsWEeJ6VDat1mjkN35z9pEazF_uaUpKqBQtKOx66-MEAtBMmfQxQm1R5_WrwDwTy452iNtkItwgpMJTOI/s320/oatswithstraw.jpg" width="320" /></a></div> <br /> <br /> 1-2 hours before a workout: Protein and carbs. <br /> Protein: chicken, beef, eggs, fish, tofu, tempeh, nuts, hemp, ect.<br /> Carbs: veggies, brown rice, wild rice, bulgur, quinoa, oats, sweet potatoes, whole wheat sandwich, ect.<br /> <br /> Adding a little healthy fat is no problem, but don’t make it too much, since it can be hard to digest within an hour by some people.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> 30 min before a workout: Have a liquid or easily digested meal. <br /> <br /> Like a protein shake or a sports optimizer shake, a small salad or fruit with a low glycemic index, like bananas, oranges, apples, grapes, seasonal berries, tomatoes, mangoes, a pear or pineapple. <br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWi1eeHfjlYvXRB8AHgWIGfIxYB4wFFqiZ1WFHT7fI_ojPRfmR9pP2rwJvCKavVaHuSDZkmwSdtJr8A78wzl6C7LXeSgIggDqjGVw42X1lOZZ-QCNM7uMoonX9DJ7JVmuisIh7GPSuts2V/s1600/proteinpowder.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"></a> </div> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpmy9EPE19JTvsNOOxbtrKzXIflv-OOE2GQ38xfuGueSaylqMhks2gU3aDznX1UbP-6xJz4XuNENpDZANZmSDmMBOP1ZDnTujji2F8yNATIopGNUmFoZa8vAhTm8m9TJS2VQt5A-E6c0eY/s1600/fruits-food_00254256.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="180" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpmy9EPE19JTvsNOOxbtrKzXIflv-OOE2GQ38xfuGueSaylqMhks2gU3aDznX1UbP-6xJz4XuNENpDZANZmSDmMBOP1ZDnTujji2F8yNATIopGNUmFoZa8vAhTm8m9TJS2VQt5A-E6c0eY/s320/fruits-food_00254256.jpg" width="320" /></a></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0BtdLvoZOxbC8UtxUG0NMIx0acHTONV3p_jzEqwice9oTxHMuZl6-8Lds3PFfZuplw0N9dsCniySgz42zkILnWZBAJ-nrpl8QchsodssmhwqLSR3RK8O6UzNwV-yCJywP5fiw0qs0CONA/s1600/proteinnutella.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"></a> </div> <br /> If you’re doing a tough and long workout, or are having a competition, keep some extra food near you to fuel you and give some extra nutrition when needed. I would recommend a banana, dates, an apple or grapes. It will help you optimize your workout, so you won’t meet the ‘man with the hammer’ mid session. <br /> <br /> Little boost before your workout: black coffee, green tea or kombucha. <br /> <br /> Post Workout Meal:<br /> <br /> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEWzGxWfWOKMsTYI8IRO1yfPKe-YmGWRfO9K8DdkUjeUSRXL2FvnZgzRllOBXl-WziEb-1oLsswuQhvegz1_AQv-2sIV64FvuKaQ_l22LcxuCLluNjvL8750jfcmCNP0Kfst_jEaNGpVEw/s1600/shakeologythirstythurs.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEWzGxWfWOKMsTYI8IRO1yfPKe-YmGWRfO9K8DdkUjeUSRXL2FvnZgzRllOBXl-WziEb-1oLsswuQhvegz1_AQv-2sIV64FvuKaQ_l22LcxuCLluNjvL8750jfcmCNP0Kfst_jEaNGpVEw/s320/shakeologythirstythurs.jpg" width="261" /></a>The post workout meal is the first meal you will eat after your workout within a 60 minute time frame, preferably within 30 minutes. <br /> <br /> Within 30 min after the workout:<br /> <br />  Drink a protein shake. Your body needs to replenish as soon as possible, yet eating solid, whole foods now can be quite demanding on your body in this phase, so liquid food will be better. Your other post workout meal will follow 30/60 minutes later, giving you also enough time to cook. So, for now: fuel that body with a shake. Or! Eat some yogurt with banana: easy digestible and they are a match made in heaven: together they maximize the absorption of muscle repairing glucose and amino-acids.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> My favorite post workout meal <a href="http://myshakeology.com/alyssaschomaker" target="_blank">Shakeology</a> contains just the right balance of protein, carbs, and superfoods to nourish my body!<br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJb5juhHCcb4f2stRZhIXd-rnv6TEhcmSzf5OG6d_TQutjEVHzjWSYpZMXjypXNUH7nS0IZAS5U5vQxAZ1D_tAdUNmN-EWxEwykFOrOOyq9Ug1TMenBkyutr3FkwmtS56z_hhk8QNqqu_r/s1600/shakeologyheartcollage1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"></a> </div> <br /> <br /> <br /> 60 min after a workout:<br /> <br />  Eat a solid meal containing protein and carbs (yes, again!) You can add fat, that’s no problem as long as you eat the recommended protein and carbs.<br /> <br /> Protein: beef, chicken, fish, eggs, bacon, Greek yogurt, tofu, seitan, tempeh, legumes, dark greens, lentils, chickpeas, nuts, cheese, hemp, ect.<br /> <br /> Carbs: brown rice, quinoa, (sweet) potatoes, wild rice, couscous, bulgur, pasta, veggies, whole wheat sandwich, ect. <br /> <br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgiQvuf-bhI4brSyYxXvbZ8CBG9JJC6nzUK5V9kLlu59BZgLv8i0esLNcjuHTBoPMERWn10hQ3ojdyoCmKUmXe6xJ-Q7ccIxVkn2AbW1AMyYCsOkcJzYV5h8YDlfWSza8E5X0yH3W2pLp3C/s1600/iphonepics7913+600.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgiQvuf-bhI4brSyYxXvbZ8CBG9JJC6nzUK5V9kLlu59BZgLv8i0esLNcjuHTBoPMERWn10hQ3ojdyoCmKUmXe6xJ-Q7ccIxVkn2AbW1AMyYCsOkcJzYV5h8YDlfWSza8E5X0yH3W2pLp3C/s320/iphonepics7913+600.JPG" width="320" /></a></div> So Basicly:<br /> Pre-workout meals are the architects of your body, while the post workout meals are the construction workers.

How to loose weight fast

It is one thing to look at this list of tips for how to lose weight fast and marvel at it’s size but in fact to make the biggest changes in your life you just have to make a couple small changes at a time in your life until life is where you want it to be. So peruse this list, sure, but more importantly just pick a couple of things that you can do now and then come back in a couple of days to pick another couple.<br> <strong>REMEMBER if YOU NEED MOTIVATION or SUPPORT PLEASE <a href="mailto:schomakeralyssa@gmail.com" target="_blank">Message ME</a>! </strong><br> <strong></strong><br> <br> <div class="pinit alignright" data-indexer="0"><span class="pinit-overlay alignright" data-indexer="0" style="height: 364px; margin: 0px 0px 10px 10px; width: 350px;"></span> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsMMwUMpqdAZotltGi9Xy3HkgIq-0r1PmJMeFb_jNWgGF44U9iAXX4-tMEKV4IFk-jJzGvw3OIVRf67EwWCd9b3vDAtMrWwpBtvBsjxdCEWae-Mv6Z84XnwIjnnagBuDdQ5JNoPWoP4vvH/s480/scale3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsMMwUMpqdAZotltGi9Xy3HkgIq-0r1PmJMeFb_jNWgGF44U9iAXX4-tMEKV4IFk-jJzGvw3OIVRf67EwWCd9b3vDAtMrWwpBtvBsjxdCEWae-Mv6Z84XnwIjnnagBuDdQ5JNoPWoP4vvH/s400/scale3.jpg" width="400"></a></div><strong>1. Drink plenty of water.</strong> Our body needs a <a href="http://www.fitnesstipsforlife.com/how-much-water-to-drink.html">lot of water</a> so give in to water. Water is not just way to flush out toxin but if you have more water in your body you will generally feel healthier and fitter. This it self will discourage any tendency to gorge. The best thing about water is that is has no calories at all.<br> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7H48tikG82WbwVPZUbsi8lv6BVIShhWc4STpW2-n9inO9ovkjMk5vb4XBZ8Z3R8x72qUytymPxTE_scZTS4v94B6Bqadh4EpOg2inuSPXgvhh1NaUAZBdpaXxUmeZgpXMkpYRy7PXSxW-/s1100/Benefits-of-Drinking-Water-Mind-Map.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="246" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7H48tikG82WbwVPZUbsi8lv6BVIShhWc4STpW2-n9inO9ovkjMk5vb4XBZ8Z3R8x72qUytymPxTE_scZTS4v94B6Bqadh4EpOg2inuSPXgvhh1NaUAZBdpaXxUmeZgpXMkpYRy7PXSxW-/s320/Benefits-of-Drinking-Water-Mind-Map.jpg" width="320"></a></div><br> <strong>2. Start your day with a glass of water</strong>. As soon as you wake up, gulp down a glass of cool water. It’s a wonderful way to start you day and you only need a lesser quantity of your breakfast drink after that. A glass of water lets out all your digestive juices and sort of lubricates the insides of your body. You may have your morning cup of tea but have it after a glass of water. It is good for you.<br> <br> <strong>3. Drink a glass of water before you start the meal.</strong> Water naturally needs some space so that you feel fuller without actually having to stuff yourself.<br> <br> <strong>4. Have another glass of water while you are having the meal</strong>. Again this is another way of making yourself full so that you can actually rise from the table eating less but feeling full just the same. Instead of drinking it one gulp, take sips after each morsel. It will help the food to settle faster so that you get that feeling that you are full faster. SIDENOTE: Water is such a remarkable thing, but seldom do we give it the credit that it deserves. Did you know that over 66% of your body weight is nothing but water’ It’s amazing! Water also plays a vital role in weight control, which is why I donated so much space to it, above.<br> <strong></strong><br> <strong>5. Stay away from sweetened bottle drinks,</strong> <a href="http://www.fitnesstipsforlife.com/the-effect-of-coca-cola-on-your-body.html">especially sodas</a>. Hey all those colas and fizzy drinks are sweetened with sugar and sugar means calories. The more you can cut out on these sweetened bottle drinks, the better for you. Drink naturally flavored water, tea or coffee instead.<br> <br> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieXzGZ8c0QsbKTw37SDjmUisgZJyMQ1pPgNcNjDYo4qiyOoi-T1DSwylzbSpj5RWf49O7DayJmTKuRqysHhETXEzquC4VgA9_7H6kALXhEwF0LMgzntc92znT3PzqmNzBc6tGIjeAEvZ0a/s1308/no+soda.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="171" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieXzGZ8c0QsbKTw37SDjmUisgZJyMQ1pPgNcNjDYo4qiyOoi-T1DSwylzbSpj5RWf49O7DayJmTKuRqysHhETXEzquC4VgA9_7H6kALXhEwF0LMgzntc92znT3PzqmNzBc6tGIjeAEvZ0a/s320/no+soda.jpg" width="320"></a></div><strong>6. Include in your diet things that contain more water like tomatoes and watermelons.</strong> These things contain 90 to 95 % water so that there is nothing that you have to lose by feasting on them. They fill you up without adding to the pounds.<br> <br> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjN-N5HUdHuWABIAeePz-YsQa7UPvCLbH-9MWs5BdnmUwi9lkNsv6j9KmDywDcUPx5PVvLdQ1YajCfdvQAT1jJUO8I-QMNJbgOo2F6izdSVvQ7niKC5WZMVq2mhPGxRB3ISg8iFYduIlUMH/s611/IMG_1072.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjN-N5HUdHuWABIAeePz-YsQa7UPvCLbH-9MWs5BdnmUwi9lkNsv6j9KmDywDcUPx5PVvLdQ1YajCfdvQAT1jJUO8I-QMNJbgOo2F6izdSVvQ7niKC5WZMVq2mhPGxRB3ISg8iFYduIlUMH/s320/IMG_1072.JPG" width="320"></a><strong>7. Eat fresh fruit instead of drinking fruit juice.</strong> Juice is often sweetened but fresh fruits have natural sugars. When you eat fruit, you are taking in a lot of fiber, which is needed by the body, and fruits of course are an excellent source of vitamins.<br> <br> <strong>8. If you do have a craving for fruit juice then go for fresh fruit juice</strong> instead of these that contain artificial flavors and colors. Or even better, try making your own fruit juice taking care not to sweeten it with too many calories.<br> <br> <strong>9. Choose fresh fruit to processed fruits.</strong> Processed and canned fruits do not have as much fiber as fresh fruit and processed and canned fruits are nearly always sweetened.<br> <br> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgRzQvGeekkmruZkWWg9bMemmpNDWwdC6CkjihAPLcUF_rFUmi5B0Q3aPs6yKo9iFsLVJfdyH8u6jig_IagIC0MA0EAI6VM1DNuYZuR9jAeJ6CPUxawPoIl-Ij3p_1TfohCAkABIjBNEsMl/s700/IMG_1182.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgRzQvGeekkmruZkWWg9bMemmpNDWwdC6CkjihAPLcUF_rFUmi5B0Q3aPs6yKo9iFsLVJfdyH8u6jig_IagIC0MA0EAI6VM1DNuYZuR9jAeJ6CPUxawPoIl-Ij3p_1TfohCAkABIjBNEsMl/s320/IMG_1182.JPG" width="320"></a><strong>10. Increase your fiber intake. </strong>Like I mentioned, the <a href="http://www.fitnesstipsforlife.com/soluble-fiber-and-insoluble-fiber.html">body needs a lot of fiber</a>. So try to include in your diet as many fruits and vegetables as you can.<br> <br> <strong>11. Go crazy on vegetables.</strong> <a href="http://www.fitnesstipsforlife.com/eat-5-fruits-and-vegetables-a-day.html">Vegetables are your best bet</a> when it comes to losing pounds. Nature has a terrific spread when it comes to choosing vegetables. And the leafy green vegetables are your best bet. Try to include a salad in you diet always.<br> <br> <strong>12. Eat intelligently</strong>. The difference between man and beast is that we are driven by intelligence while beasts are driven by instinct. Don’t just eat something because you feel like eating it. Ask you’re self whether your body really needs it.<br> <br> <strong>13. Watch what you eat.</strong> Keep a watchful eye on every thing that goes in. Sometimes the garnishes can richer than the food itself. Accompaniments too can be very rich. Remember that it is the easiest thing in the world to eat something without realizing that it was something that you should not have eaten. Selective memory you know’<br> <br> <strong>14. Control that sweet tooth.</strong> Remember that sweet things generally mean more calories. It is natural that we have cravings for sweet things especially chocolates and other confectionary. Go easy on theses things and each time you consume something sweet understand that it is going to add on somewhere.<br> <br> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhW18OeCOBRxBd8HVpVkB6zCthG7q34O15FQQziKrIIh5-guzc7uBWbaSAjR4N99eCbFn6Txooq-H6LLZA55xx0nYg-PMag5pcVfmsBtMOQWr6fILaB0aDJqW7al49KV0rP2CtG7EAdpGlu/s400/no-skipping-meals%5B1%5D.gif" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="294" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhW18OeCOBRxBd8HVpVkB6zCthG7q34O15FQQziKrIIh5-guzc7uBWbaSAjR4N99eCbFn6Txooq-H6LLZA55xx0nYg-PMag5pcVfmsBtMOQWr6fILaB0aDJqW7al49KV0rP2CtG7EAdpGlu/s320/no-skipping-meals%5B1%5D.gif" width="320"></a><strong>15. Fix times to have meals and stick to it.</strong> Try to <a href="http://www.fitnesstipsforlife.com/meal-sizes-and-frequency.html">have food at fixed times of the day</a>. You can stretch these times by half an hour, but anything more than that is going to affect your eating pattern, the result will either be a loss of appetite or that famished feeling which will make you stuff yourself with more than what is required the next time you eat. I eat every 2-3 hours 6 times a day! It keeps my metabolism humming along!<br> <div style="float: right; margin: 4px;"><a href="javascript:void((function(){var%20e=document.createElement('script');e.setAttribute('type','text/javascript');e.setAttribute('charset','UTF-8');e.setAttribute('src','http://assets.pinterest.com/js/pinmarklet.js?r='+Math.random()*99999999);document.body.appendChild(e)})());"><img alt="Pin It" class="aligncenter" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v419/green_tea/pin.jpg"></a></div>
