Today’s simple natural weight loss tip is: Eat more meals.

That might seem confusing, but it works, as long you don’t eat more calories during the day, just space them out differently. Eating more frequent, smaller meals helps your body keep it’s metabolism working at a higher rate better than long intervals between meals. (When your body is hungry for an extended period, it goes into “starvation mode” and does what it can to conserve calories, and your metabolism slows down, so you can end up eating fewer calories but not lose any weight.)

There is a book, The 3-Hour Diet by Jorge Cruise, a New York Times best selling author who has appeared on CNN, Dateline NBC, Good Morning America, The Oprah Winfrey Show, The Today Show, The Tyra Banks Show and The View.

According to The 3-Hour Diet , waiting more than three hours between meals is enough to bring on the starvation mode, and eating more frequently helps the body burn fat.

So today’s weight loss tip is: Eat more meals.
