Calories - You Do The Math

Recently, I read an interesting fact about calories from a personal trainer. I don't know how true this is, but apparently if you can figure out how many calories you are supposed to be eating a day (let's say 1,600 per day). You would take this number and divide it by the number of hours you are awake during the day (let's say 16 hours). This would mean that you could consume 100 calories per hour for every hour you are awake. Of course, this is not practical, but you get the picture. Just divide your day into the number of sections you want to eat (ideally six small meals) and figure out how many calories each meal should be. I'm not sure if this actually works, but it's worth a try for those who are trying to lose weight.
