No, that title is not a typo.
One of the things that makes people not get the weight loss results that
they want is that they may occassionally be starving their bodies.
There are two basic ways that this can happen. One is for it to be done
inadvertently—like when you just get busy and forget to eat.
Another is when you purpose deprive your body of food to try and “speed up” your results.
Regardless of how it happens, either scenario in this case is equally
damaging. Although you will decrease the calories that you take in which
may lead to some short-term weight loss, the kicker here is that you
will be slowing down your metabolism.
What this means is that after the starving is over, your body will hold
onto the next meal you eat for dear life, expecting be be starved again.
If you allow starvation to become a habit, you will actually be contributing to your own weight gain in the future.
Therefore, make sure that you are keeping your meals no more than 4
hours apart. As long as you do this, you will be supporting the healthy
metabolism that you’ll need to lose the kind of weight that you’ve
committed to.
