You know I actually read a very, very interesting diet called the Sumo Diet or something the other day....it worked on the premise that you eat one HUGE meal that lasts about an hour each day. The guy who devised this diet simultaneously lost fat and gained muscle at the same time, I can't remember the basis behind it, I read it maybe a year ago on T-mag, which is usually a very credible magazine. I'll try and find the link.
Peace.
