A calorie shifting meal plan sounds like a complex way to eat but in this description I will break down what calorie shifting is, how and why it works and supply a calorie shifting sample meal plan. Calorie shifting is a simple process where you change and alternate your calorie intake by eating separate foods in very specific combinations. An example would be to eat 1000 fat one day followed by 1400 fat the next day then back down to 1100 fat then again back up to 1600 calories.
This would be an very broad example of calorie shifting. What happens when you calorie shift is your bodies metabolism is forced to work hard than usual because it has no idea what rate to burn fat at so it essentially goes into overdrive. A good analogy for this would be muscle building. When you lift weight you have to lift weights that are whether more or separate than what you previously lifted. If not there is no presuppose for your muscle to grow. To get muscle to grow you give it constant stimulus and keep it off balance so to speak. This is the same wayou calorie shifting works. If done right it can put your metabolism into overdrive and cause it to burn more fat and fat than normal.
Diet Sample Menu
A Few Rules To ensue When Following A Calorie Shifting Meal Plan:
80% Rule: Do Not eat till you are full. Over time you will know what this feels like but only eat till 80% full.
Eat 4-5 Meals: Instead of 3 bigger meals eat 5-6 smaller meals
Water: Drink Lots of water. Aim for half your bodyweight in ounces.
Sample Meal Plan:
Day 1:
10am 1 apple cut in slices 1/2 cup roasted unsalted cashews 1/2 cup fat free cottage cheese
1:30pm 1/4lb roast beef 1 can tuna mixed with some mayonnaise steamed broccoli/zucchini/squash one can diet rootbeer

Day 2:
10am Roast beef sandwich: 2 slices of oat bread, homemade sliced roast beef (up to 3 oz.), tomatoes, iceburg lettuce, sweet white onions, 1 tbsp mayonnaise low fat one diet rootbeer at any time while the day except at night.
For the rest of your meals at 1:30, 5:30 and 8:30 you will only be eating fruit. You can eat as much as you want but Only eat till you are not hungry, not till you're full! That's very important. You will need to eat slower so your body has time to tell you when it's full.
You are allowed to eat pears, apples, strawberries, oranges and plums
You can eat just 1 fruit or you can combine them all. But, do make sure you mix them up. Don't eat just 1 of them for your next 3 meals.
