RIO Fitness Chicago® Tip:

How many meals/snacks a day are you eating? How often are you eating? Eating 1-2 times or having huge gaps in time between, you are slowing down your metabolism (how fast you burn cal); when you finally do eat your body stores it as fat for an energy reserve. Eat a combo of 5-6 SMALL meals(350cal max)/snacks(150cal max) every 2.5-3 hours. This keeps your metabolism fast & insulin levels from spiking.
