CARE AGREEMENT:
You have the right to help plan your care. To help with this plan, you must learn about your diet. You can then discuss your treatment options with your caregiver. You can work with them to decide what care will be used to treat you. You always have the right to refuse treatment.

Metabolism
The body’s metabolism is a system that burns calories. To keep the system working effectively it must be fueled regularly. Small meals helps keep the body burning calories and losing weight. It can also keep you from feeling deprived because you eat every few hours.

Warning
Even a good, healthy 1,500-calorie weight loss diet may be difficult to follow and result in regained weight once the regimen is reversed, report doctors at the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDKD). While restricted diets can help dieters lose weight quickly, they can become difficult to maintain. NIDKD researchers report that losing weight too quickly also can lead to additional problems, such as the development of gallstones or abnormal heart rhythms.

When following a 1,500-calorie diet, the key to success is to eat low-calorie nutritious foods, so that you can eat enough to feel satiated while reaching your weight-loss goals. Planning your diet ahead of time will help you stay on track, eat full meals and reserve a few hundred calories for snacks throughout the day.
.Breakfast
Breakfast should be filling to help you get through the day. While sugary muffins are out, breakfast should be one of your larger meals, to get your day off to a good start and give you energy.
