Does anyone have set meal/snack times

Hi! Yes, I have scheduled eating times:
Breakfast: 7:00
Snack: 9:00
Lunch: 11:00
Snack: 2:00
Dinner: 5:00
Dessert: 6:00

I started doing this because someone told me to eat every 2-3 hours, six times a day to keep my metabolism up. Now that I've been ding it for a while, my body has adjusted and I know that when I get hungry...it's time for my 2:00pm snack.

I do the same:

6:30 a.m. breakfast
9:30 a.m. snack
12:30 p.m. lunch
3:30 p.m. snack
6:30 p.m. dinner

I don't usually have a snack but if I do I'll have it a couple hours later. It works great for me. My energy level is consistent, rarely hungry and I feel great!

:flowerforyou: It helped me to not only plan my day's eating in advance but to eat at a preplanned time.

Breakfast after walking and feeding the dogs

Lunch---our big meal---at noon unless my husband plays golf, then I have a snack at noon and the meal when he gets home

Dinner ---a smaller meal---at 5PM

snack ----cereal and soy milk or plain yogurt at 8:30 PM ( a little later if we go out but always an hour or more before bedtime.

Good luck:bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

I have never been able to keep a schedule lol and i work from home so it makes it harder.

I love to graze so I go with my habits instead of fighting them. I usually have my meals preplanned and in my log ( I just eat them when I am hungry) and then I go to the bottom and just add snacks I think i may want. I log them and then put them all together in one place like a tupperware container or bag and then I can grab anything I feel like out of there whenever Im hungry and I know that its already accounted for.

this works for me because can keep some flexability about when I eat and feel like I am snacking and grazing whenever I want but once my snacks are out thats it !

I eat when i'm hungry, no set time.

ok...we will play...what times of the day do you get hungry?:laugh:

bahahaha....I seem to get hungry somewhere around breakfast, then around lunch, and usually again in the evening....lol....personally I couldn't care less about regimenting my body, I eat clean, so it doesn't really matter when I eat, but I do find that after woopy i'm unusually hungry, what's up with that?

some things are just good ......actually...its all good...why not let it be good?...we can so lets
