Set up an eating schedule.
Plan to divide up your day into three main meals and two or three snacks. This spreads out your food intake so that you maintain a steady energy level throughout your waking hours and the fuel required for all your activities.
n Feed your brain: Your brain also depends on having a fairly even blood sugar level to function well, so eating something healthy every few hours ensures that you will be giving it the energy it needs.
n Distributing your calories: In general, your three main meals (breakfast, lunch, dinner) should provide approximately 70 to 75 per cent of your caloric intake. The remaining calories can be met by your snacks. Don’t worry about the amount of calories being exactly the same at every meal, but think about eating approximately the same size meal and ensure that each meal is balanced. For example, on a 2,000-calorie-per-day diet you would be eating approximately 500 calories per main meal. The balance should be made up by two or three snacks. If you have a hectic schedule, carry easy-to-eat snacks like fruit, yogurt cups and almonds.
