As a basic rule of thumb, one pound of fat equals 3 500 calories. Simply put, if you cut out that 200 calorie whole milk latte every day for one month, you should drop almost two pounds. Butt odds are you want to lose more than two pounds in one months time. While there are so many fad diets, from cutting out fat or carbs to cleansing fasts, many nutritionists recommend more frequent, smaller meals to maximize metabolism and keep hunger at bay. Any meal that you eat that’s over 500 calories is going to cause insulin production and push that mean into fat storage. By consuming smaller amounts of food five times daily, your blood sugar level remains steady amd you don’t have a chance to get hungry or experience the cravings that often derail even the most committed dieter. And when you’re not hungry, it’s easier to stay in control of your eating pattern.
