I'm a stay at home mother, and so my three year old dictates my schedule, as we always eat together, as a family.
Breakfast: 7 - 7:30am.
Lunch: 11:30am.
Snack: 3:00pm
Dinner 6:00pm.0 -
Breakfast around 7.30 and trying to eat every 3 hours as I've been advised this will help my metabolism.
I try to keep a reasonable amount of calories left for dinner time, during the day I never know where I'll be so tend to take some low calorie snacks with me.0 -
Try to drink more water in between snack and lunch, and that should help you push dinner back just alittle later........ I have found that if I drink 20 ounces or more of water right before a meal, I am not as hungry and therefor sometimes have to wait a bit longer until I need to eat.
Also, I try to have my heaviest meal for lunch, so that my body has longer to metabolize the meal. Make sense?0 -
