What to eat when you eat small and frequent meals

People often hear about eating small meals frequently, but are there any requirements on what to eat? Eating small meals frequently is suitable for people who are losing weight, have stomach diseases, etc. If these people want to eat small meals frequently, they should try to eat foods that are easier to digest, and refuse high-fat and high-salt foods. Various unhealthy foods and drinks are not within this diet range. Let’s take a look at the ten principles of eating small and frequent meals.

1. Ten principles of eating small and frequent meals for your reference

① Eat the right food at the right time: Attention! One hour before exercise, you need to replenish enough starch (sweet potatoes, steamed bread, whole grain flour, bananas); during exercise (exercise for more than one hour), you need to replenish sugar (candy, chocolate) immediately to avoid consuming glycogen and burning muscles; after exercise, you need to replenish protein (boiled eggs) and a small amount of starch (whole grain flour, bananas) as soon as possible. You need to replenish these foods at these times to avoid gaining weight. If you don’t replenish them, you will gain weight!

② Eat small meals frequently, and increase the original food portion to six to ten meals a day: Do not eat until you are full, because eating too much will not only put a great burden on the stomach, but also cause problems such as bloating and edema.

③Try not to eat foods containing white sugar: I stipulate that I can only eat sweets when I am exercising. If I can’t help it, I will eat some before 5 pm. After 5 pm, I really shouldn’t touch desserts. Of course it is best not to eat it all the time.

④Don’t eat fried foods: they will make you old, ugly, fat and smelly.

⑤ Don’t eat ice: Don’t drink ice water or drinks, and don’t eat shaved ice, because these will make your belly bigger (especially for women) and cause fat accumulation and thickening.

⑥ Don’t let yourself get hungry: Because once you are hungry, your body will naturally react and start to get nervous about whether you will often have nothing to eat. As a result, it will store fat to protect itself, which will cause obesity.

⑦ Don’t eat starch after 6 o’clock in the evening: If you are hungry, you can eat some fish, eggs, and other high-protein foods, which are less likely to make you fat. If you are still greedy, some non-sweet fruits and vegetables, such as cherry tomatoes and guava, are good.

⑧Go to bed before 11 o'clock at night and live your life after getting enough sleep: If you don’t get enough sleep, your body will not have enough energy and will not be able to help you work hard to burn fat, so you will not be able to lose weight.

⑨ Be persistent and determined: most adjustments in diet, lifestyle, and work and rest schedule will take three months to show results.

⑩Drink more water: Drink at least 2000cc of water every day, and don’t drink beverages!
