Question
Hi,

I am a 25 year old female. I just started a job where I work 11pm to 7am. I am trying to lose weight and was wondering what would be the best way to schedule my meals. I want to try a plan that has me eating 6 small meals a day. I don't know if I should sleep first thing when I get off or wait a few hours and sleep then. Also, when should I exercise?
Thanks

Answer
Meal timing is a contradictory matter. To answer your question, I should know more about your dieting/exercise history, body weight, fitness level, and food preferences.

Generally speaking, you might want to try two things:

1. Read these articles at

2. Try our free plan bassed on 6 meals a day:
