Eating For Success

DON’T SKIP MEALS: Make sure you eat all six meals each day to keep your body well-nourished and your metabolic rate high. That’s how you’ll burn calories.

EAT EVERY TWO TO THREE HOURS: Eating on a regular basis will keep you feeling full and help you lose weight/maintain a healthy weight.

EAT SLOWLY: Spend at least 15 minutes eating each whole-food meal; eat snacks and drink your meal replacement shake as slowly as possible.

DRINK WATER: Drink at least eight cups (64 ounces) of water every day.

A healthy body starts with a healthy weight. When you incorporate a healthy meal plan into your daily routine, you’re taking an important step toward long-term health and wellness while losing those extra pounds your body doesn’t need and you certainly don’t want. With each pound you lose, your confidence will grow. Good luck! Talk to your doctor for more information.

  2. Do you recommend more liquid meals than solid meals? After all they go thru your body quicker.

  5. Dear Candy,
    Liquid meals are a good way to fill in a quick meal. It is much healthier to eat regular well balanced meals.

    Thanks,

    Dr. Bob Moulas
