It really is true! You can speed up your metabolism and lose weight just by eating more. The key? Portion control, along with the right food at the right time, will have you on your way to a leaner body in no time! Check it out!
Here are 3 Ways to Lose Weight By Eating MORE:
Timing. When you skip more than 3 or 4 hours without a meal, your body goes into starvation mode and starts storing fat instead of getting rid of it. So, if you’re on a 1200 calorie a day diet, but you are eating one big meal in the morning and another big meal at night before you go to bed, there is no way your body’s metabolism is going to speed up. Regardless of how unbelievable it may sound – just give it a try!
Start out with breakfast and then every 3 hours have another small meal. You can even make one meal into two if eating every three hours sounds like too much initially. So, eat half of your lunch at noon and then eat the other half at 2 pm, for example. This will give you more energy and keep you from having headaches or being sluggish from long stretches between meals.

Foods. Foods full of sugar, saturated fats, and artificial sweeteners are low in water and fiber; this will slow down digestion, which can cause weight gain and leave you feeling like a bloated mess! Instead, fill your diet with whole grains, vegetables, fruits, nuts and legumes. Lean meats, beans, nuts and low fat dairy, like Greek yogurt, provide protein. If you’re thinking about going vegetarian, many leafy green vegetables also contain protein. Fruits, vegetables and whole grains provide complex carbohydrates which helps to keep our energy levels up without the spike in blood sugar that is often caused by processed, sugary foods. Healthy fats (olive oil, avocado, fish oils, seeds, nuts, soybeans) stimulate longer-lasting, stable energy levels!

Portion Size. Instead of 2 or 3 regular size meals a day, make it 6 small meals! Take a regular meal you normally would eat for lunch or dinner and spread it out into two meals. For instance, start your day with a great breakfast packed with complex carbs and proteins. Eat half of your lunch three hours later and then at lunch time eat the rest. Then, three hours after lunch (for example 3 pm) eat a small meal of vegetables and lean meats, or fruits and veggies, then three hours later eat the other half of your dinner, and finally a high protein snack a couple hours later, before bedtime.
Make sure to keep most of your bulkier carbs early in the day and spread proteins, fruits, and vegetables throughout the day. This will keep your sugar levels from spiking while you’re sleeping, which causes cravings and sluggishness in the mornings.
