Set Meal Times vs. smaller, more frequent "snacking"?

  • Yeah, I can't stave off hunger with less than 215 calories, and sometimes that's not enough.

    Lyndsay, that's a great and tasty routine, but I don't think it would work for me. I would categorize all of those meals except for dinner as snacks. I do keep my breakfast small, my lunch between 400-500 calories, and then I have dinner and a late-night snack if I'm hungry (which I am 80% of the time).

    But I will snack on small things throughout the day sometimes, and I'm going to see how I do without that. Or, sometimes, I get hungry and eat my lunch early. I want to try eating by the clock a little while and see what happens.

    I failed today, BTW. I had my breakfast late, which is normal for me. I should have waited until 3:00 to have my lunch, but I caved and ate it at 1:30. Given my hunger and skin issues this week, I'm going to be supremely pissed if I don't get my period soon. This had better be due to an early period. Of course, I'm irritable, too, so that's one more clue that this week is not business as usual for me or my body. :neutral_face:
