Eat small portions every two hours

Eat fruits and sweets by themselves as a meal

Fruits and sweets are high in calories. If you eat them on an already full stomach, the chances of them converting into fat are much higher.

Take a power nap after lunch

Preferably on the left side. This allows your body to focus on digestion only. If the nap was longer than 20 minutes, the food will be converted into fat because of inactivity.
