Mini Meal Diet
The six mini meal a day diet plan has been a proven successful fast and healthy way to lose weight. As a matter of fact it is a great change of lifestyle plan as well.
Dieting doesn't mean you have to die while you at it. Dieting doesn't have to make you feel sluggish and starving all the time either. I have found this to be a workable plan ( I am currently on the plan).
Instead of three tasteless low-fat meals where you engorge on green beans just to feel full and then discover you only lost 1 pound; try six tasty small meals that keep you feeling full and build your metabolism for fast weight loss 5-10 in a week.
The secret is your are fueling your metabolism where it has to work continuously while burning out excess fat.
Here are a few of my menu choices that you can try or inspire you to create your own.
MENU # 1
Breakfast: 1 egg, 1 piece of high fiber toast ( can spray with fat-free butter spray),1 cup of skim milk.
Mid-morning Snack: 1 apple sliced with 1 TBS of peanut butter spread on slices. Drink a large glass of water or Splenda tea.

Hmm interesting. I may just tray this out. Thanks for sharing. Godbless:)
Hi, just curious to know if the plan is working for you. It sounds like a good idea to fuel your metabolism to keep it working and burning excess fat.
This round I've been at it 3 days, so I haven't weighed yet. I am feeling more energy and less hungry.My metabolism has been working double, to put it nicely:.) I just had a baby, so before the baby I was on this diet and lost 6 to 8 pounds in a week, then it levels off to 4 to 5 ....2 to 3 then rotating what you eat bumps it back up to the bigger numbers. More over weight people can easily lose 10 pounds the first week. I will keep everyone informed as I lose. Remember, exercise really helps too:.)
Thanks for all the nice comments!
Thanks for the update. Keep it going :)
I am so excited, after cheating a few times I still lost 6 pounds my first week and already looking a little better without those holiday pounds, I have even tapped into a couple pounds of my baby weight. Here goes another week.......
Great hub with some wonderful meal suggestions. Thank you for stressing the importance of eating. So many people try to starve themselves while "dieting", only to do more harm to their bodies. You mentioned drinking plenty of water; staying hydrated can make all the difference.
Thanks Dr. Hoberman for your nice comment, I am honored:.) I agree with you too!
Great hub. Just a word of advice. Diet all you want but do not over do it. Diet is NOT equivalent to starvation. Starvation may lead to unwanted effects such as dizziness. Long term starvation may lead to anorexia.
I just wanted people to realize that you can't show off what's hidden. So if you want to build it up muscle-wise under that layer of fat then no one will really see it. Your first aim should be to get that fat off your belly. You can do ab exercises while you slim down and it'll help make them stronger for whenever you actually do have visible abs. Or, if you want, you can wait until you've slimmed down and THEN start working directly on your abs.. All up to you, but that fat has to go!
This isn't a "diet" its actually considered as a daily meal plan to many. This also doesn't starve you, it actually is meant to keep you energized and satisfied. How to loose weight is right, you need to have low body fat for muscles to show up. If you have a 6 pack, you'll only see fat covering it up. When you weigh yourself you'll be thought of as extremely fat because muscle is heavier than normal fat.
Thanx for sharing. Great hub.
This is all fine, but...processed meat, sweeteners, canned food...consider how many chemicals you'd be taking in. Stick to fresh food.
I live in a house with poeple who eat whatever they want Im the only fat one and I dont even eat alot... I tried weight watchers and I thought I was going to vomit from all the food they make you eat I work out for 30min to an hour a day I am 5'5" and weigh 245 I have been tested for thyroid and there is nothing wrong with me Im just fat what do I do?
Discouraged, Consistency eating "plenty" healthy meals and exercise is vital. Sometimes dieters tend to throw the body into a starvation mode by not eating enough then eat a few fatty food in-between that stores itself and causes weight gain.
As for thyroid problems, it is very hard to diagnose. Many times they are not able to right away, it can be very frustrating. I have thyroid problems personally, it's rough.
What has helped boost my weight loss along with healthy eating is drinking lots and lots of water and water products. I will put a glass in the freezer until a little slushy and just keep doing that. Also I personally have to attack my slow metabolism, which seems to be your problem as well.
I take MegaT Green Tea tablets and B Vitamins. I also take 5 or more Magnesiums a day to stimulate colon function.
A complete colon cleanse is sometimes necessary to give you a start since many carry up to 14 pounds in their colon. If your tummy is the biggest area that may be your leading problem also sending toxins through your body.
I hope this helps. Don't ever give up on yourself. Depression is one of the leading causes behind weight gain so emotional support and self confidence is vital. http://hubpages.com/hub/Hilarious-And-Fun-Ways-To-
msot of these ingredients are not in our local stores
Quick question for you...
What is a good and safe colon cleanse to use and where can I find it??
Most of the store bought items mentioned (fat-free ice cream, Campbell's soups,Jello, etc..) are horrible for you. Campbell's soups are loaded with sodium and fake ingredients, most no fat ice creams and cereal bars contain high fructose corn syrup,and Jello is just not real food. There are much better choices out there.
Nice try but there are many unhealthy cancer-causing choices in this diet. Sucralose in Splenda, fat-free artificial sugar, jello, happy meal & protein in slimfast bar contain monosodium glutamate which are neurotoxins to the brain. Artificial hormones in non-organic milk products. People do your research and learn that we are being poisoned without realizing it.
Thanks, I will try to come up with a suitable more organic diet. Unfortunately it seems we always lean more toward fast, easy and cheap. I personally have been wanting to change this so thanks for the advice, well taken.
Do you keep cycling the menu's when you eat daily? Is there anything that I can exchange for the yogurts? I am totally not a fan of yogurt at all, the smell is very offensive to me. Also, the cottage cheese, can I use something else for this? Thanks
Excellent hub.Real article which i enjoyed reading from and really learn t a lot from.
Regardless of the processed items.. this was very helpful for giving examples of small meals. Thank you so much for sharing, it has helped me very much!!
nice info
What are the amounts, ie. ounces of chicken,tuna,deli meat? Where do you find fat free butter, fat free cheese and whipped cream,I never knew there was such a thing!
Thx
I usually use a tuna pouch, a piece or two of deli meat and a single boneless chicken breast. Also usually all grocery stores has fat-free products though some don't. So like on cheese I may get the low-fat or skim milk cheese. Also they usually have fat-free whipped topping in the freezer section, maybe I should have worded it whipped topping instead of whipped cream. Hope this helps:) Thanks for the comments!
Wow awesome inspite of your choice of six small meals I get the point I just started this change of diet to lose theses 8lbs I need to lose plus I'm exercising 1hr.a day intervals/resistant training in my own home on treadmill/my bands/master stair climber so thanks 8LBS
BE GONE POOF
i need help with portion size how much of everything to eat.how much chicken and all?????????????
A single chicken breast is what I meant for the chicken. A good way to portion allot of foods like meats is never eat more than the size of your fist. Also you can use a handful of grilled chicken fajita strips pre-cooked. Feel free to ask more ?? Thanks:)
Warning people!!!!! I got extremely ill from the fat free ice creme and the combination of the foods, I had to go to the emergency,chills vomitting could not move for ab entire day. I feel the fat free foods are just the fat is taken out to add in artificial sweeteners
First of all if you have any physical problems you should ask your doctor before trying a specific diet. Also I didn't suggest fat free ice-cream, but low-fat, which is not sugar free so it don't have fake sweeteners.
If you are a diabetic this may not be the best diet for you.
Also if you are accustomed to a fatty diet with lots of starches, sugars and carbs; it may shock your system since your eating much lighter and boosting your metabolism. Some people have colon issues that when their metabolism is boosted it makes them very sick.
This diet works for thousands of people, but there is a few that it's best to let your doctor plan your diet.
These are only suggestions, the actual brand choices you make can effect things as well.
You can try using full fat foods if you feel it's best, just cut down portions and expect slower results.
One thing I'd prefer to discuss is that fat burning plan fast may be accomplished by the suitable diet and exercise. Someone's size not merely affects appearance, but also the general quality of life. Self-esteem, depression, health risks, plus physical abilities are influenced in excess weight. It is possible to do everything right whilst still having a gain. In such a circumstance, a condition may be the offender. While a lot of food rather than enough exercise are usually at fault, common health conditions and widely used prescriptions can easily greatly increase size. I am grateful for your post right here.

Def going to try this I quit smoking 8 months ago and have really packed on lbs wish me luck
i have been eating 6 small meals now & the weight is just pouring off...man im glade this works...i noticed i don't craive alot of stuff...it's like i beat the body to the punch line...i can control myself now...im not in complete control but it's controlled alot better than it was... i went from having to have a sugar waffle & 3 bacon slices to haveing a peace of fruit or a smoothie for breakfast now...loving it...loving it
these arent mini meals. someone really needing to lose much weight would gaon, not lose. 5 to 6 mini meals need to be 3 small meals, divided up into 6 different times during the day.....not 3 full meals plus snacks as this shows, its ridiculous telling pedople thisd
That is your opinion, I understand it may hasn't worked for you. However it works for me and several others that have contacted me. If you are already smaller and just need to lose 5 to 10 pounds then it's not for you. This is for those mainly who need to lose 15 or more pounds or to just simply maintain a good metabolism and normal weight. Sorry it don't work for you, everyone has to find the right diet for them. Also with this diet is for those who exercise as well as eating right for it to work properly. So if someone tries this diet without workouts it may not work out for them.
