I can't stress the importance of nutrition enough. You are busting your butt at your workout sessions and during your cardio (or at least you better be), but if you are not eating right- it's all for nothing. The five meals/snacks are going to provide your body with energy throughout the day, which means you are burning calories doing nothing. They are going to repair the lean muscle you are breaking down during workouts and give you a feeling of fullness throughout the day so you are not starving when you get home.
If you still haven't bought into the "5 a day theory," you are only making it more difficult to reach your goal. Do yourself a favor and eat breakfast, add a mid-morning snack, and a late-afternoon snack. Plan your meals, and have a game plan for the day.
Eating healthy is not rocket science. But...it does take preparation, accountability, and motivation. So do yourself a favor and eat 5 a day- it will only improve your life!
