Don't bother eating 7 small meals. That's stupid. Just eat fewer total calories throughout the day. If it takes 7 small meals for you to be able to handle so few calories, then whatever. But if you only eat 3 meals a day and you're still getting fewer calories, that's fine too.

All these people saying that 7 small meals a day will make a huge difference with your metabolism are being ignorant. Weighttraining and cardio will boost your metabolism far more than any "7 meals a day" bullshit will.

So, to recap: the secret to losing weight is to stop eating so much food and start exercising.
