    Hello! I found a link that may help you.

    http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/metabolism/WT00006

    It's easy to read, unlike Wikipedia which you have to know terminology to get a full understanding of.

    I hope this helps! :smile:

    Interesting acticle posted by our fellow MFP friend. I know there is no magic bullet but I have heard - and I do it myself, that eating 5-6 small meals throughout the day helps metabolism stay steady. It counteracts "starvation mode" by constant feeding. I have two breakfasts and two lunches (each around 190-210 calories) - only one dinner (regular dinner - protein and veggies - I limit starches to once or twice a week). I eat some, but not all, of my exercise calories. This is a bone of contention on this board - but you gotta do what feels right for you. I am changing my lifestyle - I am not dieting - Calories in - Calories out (did we really think it would change). Best of luck
