The body deserves to be fueled. Eating meals and snacks spaced every 2 – 3 hours throughout the day can help to stabilize blood sugar.  This practice helps to stabilize energy levels throughout the day.  Placing large gaps of time between meals can result in the metabolism slowing down.  When that happens the next meal will not be burned off as efficiently as possible and it is possible to gain weight with that type of routine.

The body was designed to slow down the way it burns nutrients as a protective way to deal with energy deficits when food is withheld.  Eat early, eat often and eat enough to keep the body burning efficiently throughout the day.  Your body deserves it!
