What are the sizes and amounts of meals I should have throughout the day and why?
A. The size of the meals depends on your size and your metabolic rate. The minimum number of calories you need to sustain your body is called your basal metabolic rate. You can calculate it as follows: 10 X your weight in pounds (for example, 150 lb. X 10 = 1,500 calories a day). However, I recommend tuning into your body’s signals, needs, and natural appetite instead of counting calories. Once you eliminate sugar and allergenic foods, your body’s appetite control systems will regain balance and you can then eat when you are hungry and stop when you feel gently satisfied. There is no calorie counting on The UltraSimple program or when you are living the UltraMetabolism lifestyle.
