The Importance of Timing Your Meals

The Importance of Timing Your Meals

The journey to reaching that ideal body you have been working hard for can be a long, tedious process.  Not only is what you eat so important but when you eat is equally vital for optimal weight loss or gain. Creating a timed schedule for your body to adjust to every day is crucial.  This includes an eating, sleeping and exercise schedule that can impact how your metabolism works daily. 

With Healthy Meals Direct, our perfectly portioned meals not only help to you lose weight or gain muscle but allow you to create a schedule that your body can adjust to.  Eating the right foods at the right time can expedite weight loss/gain and can help you reach the goals you have been working hard to achieve. 

Why HMD will help you lose weight

With HMD, our portioned, macronutrient balanced, low-fat meals are the perfect way to accelerate weight loss.  Our suggested meal schedule will allow your metabolism to be active throughout the day.  The schedule can depend and vary on your personal routine.  The key is to eat your first meal within 30 minutes of waking up followed by 1 meal every 3-4 hours after that.  Our suggested meal schedule is as follows:

 

Meal 1: 7:00am

Meal 2: 11:00am

Meal 3: 3:00pm

Meal 4: 7:00pm

Most importantly, you should create a schedule that works best for you.  Also, consistency is key!  You should do your best to keep your schedule consistent as that will maintain a healthy circadian rhythm.  If you have a day or two where your schedule is thrown off, don't worry!  The worst thing you can do is to get discouraged and give up altogether.  Isolate the one day that is off schedule, then get right back into your routine when it works best for you. 

Healthy Meals Direct will not only supply you with meals that contain the nutrients your body needs but allow you to create an eating schedule that is optimal for weight loss and a healthy body.  Contact HMD today if you are interested in our meal packages that will help you to reach all your health and fitness goals!
