Dieters on the Body for Life plan eat six small meals a day as opposed to three bigger meals. Eating more often keeps the body’s metabolism high.
Carbohydrates like potatoes and rice are recommended. With all of the exercise you will be doing, you will need all of the energy that you can get. Portion control is the key to having the right balance of food on your plate at each meal.
The program is designed to run for twelve weeks. Exercise sessions should last at least forty-five minutes per day.
