5 meals a day to boost my metabolism

[Ryan2009]

I was just wondering if anyone who was overweight started eating 5 meals a day and noticed losing weight. I hear from a lot of people eating 5 meals a day will speed up my metabolism. And if it will how much of a difference does it actually make? i wanna lose about 10-20 pounds by summer and was wondering if eating 5 meals a day instead of my normal 2 will really help me lose weight.

None, if you consume the same amount of calories in 2 meals as you do in 5 you will see no metabolic increase.

First off wrong place for this question. It's all about calories in vs. calories out. If the 5 meals a day total less calories than the 2, then yes you will lose weight (assuming it's under maintenance); just eat when it's most convenient for you during the day not because someone told you eating more is better.
