I stopped right there. That's what most people do and get fat: meal, snack, snack, meal, snack, snack, meal! No! (personal opinion.)

No. It's all in WHAT you eat.
Sumo wrestlers eat up to nine square meals a day...I'm thinking that eating more often would HAVE to mean eating small snacks throughout the day, as opposed to actual meals.
I had it backwards. I eat 6 splurge meals a week.
The same thing struck me! Snacking and picking are surefire weight gainers, IMO. She also forgot to mention that it doesn't hurt a lot of us to cut back on drinking if you want to lose weight. And sodas, for that matter.

I don't eat 4-6 meals a day. I eat 3 with a light snack in between each one. Breakfast is usually fatfree, low cal yogurt with some whole grain granola mixed in it and about 6oz of Hot&Spicy V8 juice. Snack is a piece of fruit around 10am. Lunch varies but is kept to about 250-300 calories and is very lowfat. I sometimes have a very low cal, low fat dessert after lunch like sugar free jello or fat free pudding or something. Afternoon snack is usually some 94% fat free popcorn or some rice cakes. Dinner varies but portion control is done and I avoid high calorie or fatty foods. Usually a ton of salad, 3-4 ozs of lean meat (if any), and a low fat, low calorie side dish. I usually wait an hour or more after dinner for a low fat, low cal dessert. Calculations say my body burns over 2500 calories a day and I'm keeping my intake at less than 1500 while eating healthy. I lose, on average, about 2.5 lbs a week doing this.
