Found a good article regarding how our body will often plateau and go into starvation mode when we are eating too FEW calories.
http://www.everydayhealth.com/weight/fewer-calories-stalls-metabolism.aspx
and another about the benefit of eating several smaller mini meals rather than 3 large meals each day.

Thanks for posting
I really liked the first one, I try and convince some of my friends and my mom that they need to eat MORE to stay healthy and lose weight and they hear nothing of it! One friend in particular often barely eats 1200 calories and works out and it drives me insane when she wonders why her metabolism is so slow.0 -
Thanks for sharing that great article. It's well written and makes it very easy for people to understand the concept.0

I really wish they would stop saying "boost your metabolism" when increasing meal count is simply an effective way to control binging for some people. I use it and it helps me.0
