Step3
Get an estimate of the amount of calories you
need in a day. The Health Promotion Board has a great calculator to do that for you. (http://www.hpb.gov.sg/hpb/default.asp?pg_id=1652)
Step4
Take that number and subtract 300-500kcal from it, depending on how much weight you want to lose. Round that number up to the nearest thousand, take off the two zeros and that will be the number of parts you want to split your day into.
Step5
Eat every hour for that 10+ hours. This way, you will be eating all day long. Think about it. It takes you about 10-15 mins to chew and swallow the 100kcal food. By the time you finish, got distracted by work and errands. In less than 45 mins time you will be eating your next snack again. Not only you are eating the whole day, you are in fact boosting your pumping up your metabolism too! (it is scientifically proven that metabolism increases after intake of foods)
