Sue:
I love your concept of mini meals. I know that I get overwhelmingly hungry a few times a day and that I can't eat as much as I used too at a meal. What gave you this great idea?

gillespie.jpg (3699 bytes)Dr.Gillespie
I was a "once a day" big eater...I didn't eat breakfast, I skipped lunch, but I really could chow down for dinner, consuming as much as any man...or more. What I didn't realize was that falling estrogen levels affect a hormone, cholecystokinen, that signals your brain to "put down the fork." Lower levels of this gut hormone, in addition to increasing progesterone levels, lets you eat...and eat...like the Energizer Bunny and not feel full.

Recent studies on insulin and glucose levels in women demonstrated that meals composed of 250-300 calorie portions, REGARDLESS OF CONTENT, were the best at allowing our stomachs to empty at a reasonable rate while keeping our blood sugar and insulin levels humming along at an even level.

I developed all the mini meals you will find in The Menopause Diet Mini Meal Cookbook to show how easy it is to eat several small meals a day. You don't need a certificate from a cooking school to understand them and many take only a few minutes, leaving precious time to spend exercising, another important point in The Menopause Diet. Just 3 10 minute segments a day can send growth hormone shooting through the roof, which helps to mobilize fat from our bodies.

Thank you Dr. Gillespie for your comments and now I would like to thank you for the following excerpts from your books, The Menopause Diet and The Menopause Diet Mini Meal Cookbook
