Is it true that you have to eat every four hours to lose weight?

"Contrary to popular belief, research suggests that eating many small meals throughout the day won’t speed up the metabolism, skipping a meal won’t make you fat, and exercising on an empty stomach will not nullify a workout. In fact, skipping a meal or two, also known as “intermittent fasting” (IF), can be downright beneficial."

Intermittent fasting may seem complicated, but it’s actually quite easy. If you typically have dinner by 7 PM and breakfast at 7 AM the next day, you’re fasting for 12 hours. This could be an example of intermittent fasting. It’s something that you’re already doing – not daily, but quite often. To reap the benefits of intermittent fasting, stop eating after 6 PM and have breakfast at 10 AM the next day. That’s 16 hours of fasting and 8 hours of eating."

I weight myself weekly and it seems that I am losing an average of 2 pounds a week. I do not how long this will keep up, but at least I know that Weight loss green store tea has already worked for me.

Nope. Not at all. I eat 3 times a day and have lost 12 pounds already. Nor can I exercise. Go figure.
