Always be prepared. Richard says to have a plan and have your meals with you, or at least know where you are going to be eating so you can look at menus and make the best choices possible.

This info will help you with what size your portions should be throughout the day. You can use an online macro calculator, or see a nutritionist to determine that information.

Plan a couple of snacks every day for between meal times. This will help bridge the gap between meals, keeping energy high and stopping cravings.

Getting on a schedule can keep you from forgetting to eat when busy and avoid overeating later. Staying on a schedule also helps to keep energy up throughout the day.
