Eating your biggest meal at THIS time of day can slash belly fat – Daily Star

IF YOU are trying to lose weight, you should be eating your biggest meal at a certain time of day.

Weight loss is never something that will happen overnight. But there are things you can do to help speed up the rate of your weight loss.

While a healthy diet and regular exercise remain the key players in weight loss, a new study has revealed the optimum time of day to eat your biggest meal to lose the most weight. And its not at dinner.

High-protein, low-carbohydrate diets are all the rage right now and for good reason. Protein is an important component of every cell in the body. Hair and nails are mostly made of protein and your body uses protein to build and repair tissues.

While most of us have a tendency to gorge once we get home from work, a study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found consuming half your daily calories at midday can help you lose a larger amount of weight.

Yep, that means your lunch needs to be half of all the calories you consume in a day.

The study also revealed participants ate 20% of their calories at dinner which helped them shed nearly a stone in 12 weeks.

Those who had their biggest meal at dinner lost just over half a stone in the same period.

Both groups had the same amount of calories per day.

A further study from Harvard University revealed the specific time you should eat your meal each day in order to drop the most pounds.

Breakfast should be had before 9am as data from the US National Weight Control Registry showed nearly 80% of people who have successfully lost over two stone have eaten breakfast every day like clockwork.

Lunch should be before 3pm as a study from the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found 1,300 people who were actively tried to lose weight lost the most weight if they had an earlier lunch.

Try to have dinner before 7pm as once we get home from work we are more likely to spend our evenings being sedentary before sleeping, thus burning off less calories than we would during the day.
