Eat less, But Eat Often

I just read it from a magazine, I know this will help some people. :)) Especially to girls out there who are body conscious and on a diet. And I just wanna share it.

When you are trying to cut back on the amount of food you eat, you will be tempted to cut back on the number of times you are eating. After all, if you are trying to reduce calories, isn't it easiest to reduce the number of meals? This strategy, however, is a recipe for failure.
Aside from the difficulties you might experience because of hunger from skipping meals, eating fewer times per day reduces the efficiency of our bodies in processing food as fuels. In other words, skipping meals maximizes the caloric effect of the food we do eat. A study at Oxford University found that people who ate five to six times a day had a 5% lower total cholesterol and were 45% more likely to be able to sustain their target weight than people who ate once or twice a day. - David Niven, Ph.D., The 100 simple secrets of healthy people
