Coming from you!

I just heard (regarding the metabolism thing with smaller, more frequent meals) that if you, say, skip breakfast, your metabolism supposedly can slow up to 20% that day because your body thinks food is scarce and is preserving reserves. Therefore, I guess, eating frequently assures you are "preceding as normal", and your metabolism is working like it should--instead of slowing down. In conclusion, you could be eating 1500 calories while dieting--but it is probably easier on your system if you spread it out throughout the day, rather than having 2 meals of 750 calories each. I don't really know, but it makes logical sense to me, so I'm trying to follow that. I guess I chose the wrong words with "rev" and such.
