    I'm getting better at #18,, but #7 and #10 are the killers for me. And why is #7 necessary? I eat most of my carbs later in the day...

    Too many rules!

    1. Stay at a caloric deficit
    2. Eat nutritious foods 85-90% of the time
    3. If needed, use the remaining 10-15% for discretionary foods to keep you sane while maintaining carbs/protein/fats

    The End

    if people did this Jillian Michaels and her ilk would be out of a job and dead broke....there is a billion dollar industry out there that is designed to promote and sell us all kind of rules, pills, supplements, fad diets, et al....

    Oh gawd, If I went to bed hungry and didn't have carbs when I wanted to I would be one cranky b*tch. Glad I live by my own rules!

    I would assume that a fair number of people out there are in a similar situation to me - work a lot, plus commute, plus go to the gym at night.

    when you're doing those things, a lot of the time you end up eating a good 30-50% of your calories later on in the day.

    I really don't see a problem with it. Your aim should be to hit your total calorie goal for the day - whatever way works best. For some that's to eat a monster breakfast, for others it's to fast, for others its 6 meals for others its 2 meals.

    It really doesn't matter in the end.
