Lose weight and still eat all day? Yup, but you have to do it right.
You should eat smaller meals, more frequently if you want to maximize your metabolism and weight loss potential. What this does, is it keeps your blood sugar steady which your body loves.

It keeps your metabolism high, this way your body is working all day at a higher level of metabolism and is burning more calories. It also keeps you feeling full and satisfied which prevents having to snack or eat when you don’t have control over the food preparation.
What is ideal is to eat between 5-7 mini-meals spaced equally throughout your day
The math works like this. Say you are the average 180 pound man consuming 2,000 calories daily to maintain weight. Well, rather than eating two 1,000 calorie meals like I use to and not giving my body time to digest before bedtime – what you should do instead is:

Divide your total daily amount of calories by the number of meals you can consistently fit into your schedule, let’s say 5.
2,000 divided by 5 is 400. This means you eat 5 mini meals of 400 calories.
You will notice consistent energy all day. None of that drag you use to feel between lunch and dinner. You’ll also notice you sleep better. Eating heavily anytime near bedtime can severely affect your ability to get comfortable and fall asleep.
