ChristiNichole Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Hi All, I am starting my Whole 30 journey today for the first time and I'll admit I have a lifetime of terrible eating behind me so please forgive the potentially very naive question. My partner gets up at 2AM for work so she eats her breakfast around 3:30 AM and she tries to eat her lunch at a "normal" hour also so that she can eat dinner with us in the evening around 6. That leaves her pretty much STARVING by around 7AM/8AM. Should she be incorporating another full meal in to her routine between her breakfast and the traditional lunch? Or just snacks? Or since they recommend truly only 3 meals a day, is there something better we should be planning in her AM breakfast that will keep her full for 9 hours?!?! Seems a little unrealistic but just thought I'd see what you guys thought. Thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cbiggs85 Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 I would personally add another meal (protein, fat, and veg) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GFChris Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Our general guidance is to create meals that satiate you for 4-5 hours, so we certainly don't expect anyone to go 9 hours during awake time between meals. Here's what I would recommend for your partner:- meal 1 between 2 and 3 am- mini meal or standard meal at 7/8 am- meal at noon/1pm- meal at 5/6 pm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
