Just curious
that doesnt matter 6, 8 or 9pm - the thing that matters is total calories + the total activity you do to lose weight.
The main reason 5 meals is better is because bigger meals tend to produce more insulin which promotes fat storage but dont even worry about that TOO much if you keep your diet & caloreis in check
Thanks for your responses. What is the latest time I should eat my last meal? I've heard you shouldn't eat after 8, then I heard it's after 6pm.
Just curious
mashed pototoes are okay
ANy weight scale will do as long as it helps you accurately keep track of total food calories
If you can't eat 5 meals - you can divide all of your calories into 3 bigger meals and doing that wont hinder your weight loss but...
If you do run into weight loss troubles then switching back to 5 smaller meals may certainly help
Should mashed potatoes be avoided while losing weight?
Another question...sorry...I'm a teacher and it's hard to stop and eat more than once a day. According to the weight calculator I need to eat no more than 296 calories per meal 5 times a day. What advice can you give to a person than can't stop and eat no more than one time during work hours? I eat breakfast before going to work at 7am and lunch while i'm there around 12pm so will I have to eat again around 4pm, 7pm and 10pm???

YOu are doing nothing wrong.
Weights are a good thing
You may have put on some muscle weight and even if you gained 3 pounds of muscle - it'll make you look 3 pounds skinnier so in that case...
you shouldn't worry about the scale
I started my weight lose journey at 185 pounds. I lost 25 pounds with in 2 months. I recently added weights to my exercise plan and I gain 3 pounds back. should I not use the weights? My goal weight is 135 to 140 pounds. I am 28 pounds away. What am I doing wrong?

fried fish is still okay but to get a flatter stomach means you need to eat the right amount of calories to lose weight and exercise so basically...
let's say you can only have 300 calories per meal to lose fat - 1 piece of fired fish may be 300 cals and that's all you can have in that meal but...
You can eat baked fish + more food before reaching 300 cals
My goals are to flatten my stomach and tone all other areas. So, would it be best to stay away from fried fish altogether? This is in response to your email to me below.
Terri
It depends on what your goals are.
Generally - fish is just fine but baked is better because of less fat and I'm not saying FAT IS BAD but...
When eating fat - you cant eat too much fat without eating TOO much calories which will make it harder for you to lose weight but...
if trying to build muscle - then fried or baked will also be fine but again - with fried/fatty fish...
you cant eat too much fried fish without consuming TOO many calories

I've been eating a lot of fish lately. My question is even if it's fried fish is it ok? I do eat baked fish sometimes but prefer fried. I was told fish is fish no matter how you eat it. Is that true?

what kind of protein are you eating?
maybe switching over to leaner protiens like fish or chicken will solve the cholesterol problem
Hello Adrian,
I am a 43 yr old woman who has become really commited to weight loss in the past 2 months. I have punched up exercise (strength training, walking/running and kickboxing). I really enjoy it. Where I am falling short is my diet. I was informed on yesterday that I have slightly elevated levels of cholesterol (how can that be?!). I was told it may be due to the fact that I eat protein in large amounts (more than 3 x per day). Please help! I am willing to try new foods, but am allergic to milk products and I don't like tomatoes.

It might be something to the blood type diet but I myself haven't really looked into it but I can tell you this...
All the foods at NowLoss.com/199 keep the "fat-gaining" insulin in check and you lose weight by eating the right foods, eating the right amounts of food/calories and exercise and truthfully...
Weight loss is that simple!
Thanks so much for all the information in your website. I have really learnt a lot! What are your opinions on the 'Blood Type'diet? where they state 'Individuals with Type O blood must strictly avoid eggs and dairy foods, breads and pastas made from wheat, cabbage and Brussel sprouts, and corn. ' http://www.whfoods.com/genpage.p...ame=diet&
dbid=2
I read that wholegrain/ wholewheat and dairy products are good for diet. But does that mean that since I'm blood type O the effects would be different for me?
Anita
I've heard the same thing but those aritcles recommend you only eat a "hershey kiss" size amount of chocaltate a day and...
they are not avocating that you can eat a candy bar daily
hi Adrian
I read from a diet magazine that eating dark chocolate will help lose weight, is that true?

I dont know too much about roasted wasabi green peas but the peanuts, green mustard coated horsebeans, and rice crackers are okay
Hi Adrian,
I recently get addicted to the roasted wasabi green peas and peanuts, green mustard coated horsebeans and rice crackers, is it ok to eat them while on a diet plan? I looked at the nutrition label, it has 110 calorie per 28g. Total fat is 2g.
Michelle
Natural and lightly salted popcorn is ok but not the buttered and cheese popcorns and unsweetened pickles are okay and herring is okay
Great list, but why are pickles and popcorn in the "good" food list and also in the foods to not eat during weight loss list? Also what about kippered herring?
Catherine
Basically - any food that doesnt cause an extreme rise in insulin is a good weight loss food
Gaining FAT is due in part to the hormone insulin and overeating and...
eating sugars, snacks and processed foods cause extreme rises in insulin because the insulin has to put the excess SIMPLE carbs/sugars from snacks somwhere and so it stores it as fat.
The more complex the carbs or lower GI like you said prevents insulin or keeps it in check preventing fat gain and basically...
If you ate more complex or low gi foods then you can really lose weight without counting cals but...
You'll get full eating so quick by eating healthy - you wont overeat either so YES...
Potatoes are fine but NOT PROCESSED potato chips or pringles
Hey,
Thanks for all the great info!
I was looking at the list of weight loss foods and i was surprised to see potatoes listed. I thought that potatoes, while very healthy, were not suited to weight loss because of their high glycemic index. But i looked on the internet and i saw that some places recommended them as well. Can you explain to me why potatoes can be a good weight loss food?
Thank you!

Green ta is good
Cla is also good but if you eat right then your diet will natural have CLA in it and...
Your carbs should only be about 40-to-50% of your daily calories
How many grams of carbs should someone who is trying to lose weight intake each day?
I just started taking cla and green tea pills. Do you know if this is good for fat loss?
Erika
Yes - that's a great snack!
Hi Adrian,
I really want to incorporate low fat yogurt into my meal plan. Would a protein shake, raw vegetables, and low fat yogurt make a good snack? Each of my meals needs to be about 250 calories with 23 grams of protein per meal (I need to lose 35 pounds so I'm doing the 50lb weight loss plan).
