Not eating breakfast makes your metabolism worse(or at least not eating an hour after you wake up)

I think eating 6 small meals a day makes your metabolism better..like for example, by small meals i mean: yogurt and granola, oatmeal, fruit...that kind of stuff.. Eating more in small quan****** is better than Eating less in large quan******. So ive heard

drinking green tea 3 times a day raises ur metabolism by 3%. so think if u burn 2000 cal/day w/o exercise, with tea u burn 60 more cals. add that up its counts for a lot.

cheers, atm my metabolism is good, but thats the prob cuz i want to put on weight and i burn bout 3-4 pounds when im asleep plus i do eat breakfast and quite alot int he mornings.

any1 else...?

so u burn 14,000 cals when u sleep? bs..

added muscle mass increases your resting metabolism rate.

You can't equate the weightloss during the night to calories burned. 3-4 pounds seems a little high but 2 pounds is perfecly normal. Of course this doesn't mean that burning 7000 cals per night is normal. Most of the weight discrepancy is fluid loss.
