You have probably heard about this but it's one of the biggest myths in the fitness industry. The myth says that if you skip a meal then you will end up gaining weight.

A popular idea that comes from this myth is the one that your body goes into starvation mode if you skip a meal. Then your metabolism will slow down. Well, that's not true.

It's very obvious why they will want you to think that. The fitness industry wants to keep selling to you solutions for overweight problems. So if you begin to believe everything they say you might end up eating 6 meals each day.

The entire truth is that the body only goes into starvation mode only after 1-2 days of not having any food. The metabolism will slow down only after a few weeks of eating very little each day.

Another story that everyone knows is that you should have your biggest meal during breakfast because it's the most important meal of the day. But you will see better results if you have your biggest meal at night even if it sounds strange.


The body doesn't have a clock that tells it is breakfast time. If you have small meals during the day and one big meal at night your body will use more proteins so it will burn more fat. The food then will go directly in your muscles after you do your exercises.

Many people that work in the fitness industry will tell you that this is not healthy. People used this method and they have seen results. And there isn't any scientific evidence to prove that this is unhealthy either.

There are many advices about weight loss that can be followed but this is not one of them.


The 31 Day Fat Loss Cure and the Eat Stop Eat are reviews that talks about weight loss programs that you can try.
