The procedure is very simple; all you have to do is eat healthy and eat as much as you want, but in portions.

To follow this diet plan, all you have to do is make a healthy choice for breakfast which should include milk and egg.

For your lunch, you can eat anything you like except for fried and junk food. For example, if you make a choice of eating chicken, divide it into three portions. Eat one portion at lunch time and eat other half portion after an hour and again eat last portion after an hour. This will help to increase your metabolism and your food will easily digest within hours.

Follow the same scheme for your dinner and supper. With this plan, you can sometimes consume large quantities of the food you like but dividing it in portions.

Along with this plan, workout for at least half an hour is very important and like all other diets and plans, drinking water in sufficient quantity is very important.

When you try to consume your food after an interval of one hour, you will not only feel light, but you will notice that you are losing weight without skipping meals. This will help you to remain filled for long and will not affect your health.

And most importantly, you are losing weight by eating sufficiently ; this is one of the best path that you could follow to lose weight.

Make sure you take guidance from your doctor or physicians too before you start practicing this weight control dietary plan.

It is a good idea to tell your doctor which minerals you are planning to take.

Those are the basic vitamins (today we know also of B3, B5, B7 etc.) we should all take the recommended dosage. There is a difference between men and women. This list is the average to be used as a guideline.

Most of those vitamins have been grouped together in multi-vitamins to make it easy to take. Some people say those recommendations are too low. From time to time there comes a doctor who recommends loading the body with a certain vitamin to prevent diseases (used to be B12, then C. Now it’s vitamin D.) Try to get as much vitamins as you can from proper nutrition and use supplements to make up the gap.
