    I'm a grazer throughout the day, with a main sit-down meal with my partner in the evening. There are a lot of different small snacks I can work into my allowance, and I try to vary them between food groups to maintain a good overall balance (fruit, yoghurt, nuts, houmous etc...).

    I try to stick with 3 meals per day only because I read somewhere that it gives your body a chance for the insulin to kick in if you are insulin resistant

    I have had success eating small meals often, but I have also had success eating one or two meals a day.
    If I eat breakfast I usually graze all day, If I skip breakfast I tend to also skip lunch in favor of a huge supper. Kinda weird but that works for me.

    6 small meals a day was unweildy for me. I prefer 3 meals a day. That being said I strive to make those 3 meals filling yet low calorie, so that I have calories for snacks if needed, especially one before bed so I don't go to bed hungry.
