crlt Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Hi, everybody! I have a question about snacks. On the log talk, I´ve been reading that most of you usually eat some snacks between meals. Is that ok? I´m not pretty sure, but I don´t know if we can eat more than 3 meals per day. Anybody can help me? thanks in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purplepadres Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 The "no snacks" advice is a recommendation and not a rule. Ideally, you should be eating enough at each meal to keep you full for 4-5 hours (until your next meal). If you're hungry (and not just "craving,") the advice is to eat a mini meal of protein/fat/veggie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotwheels Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 I think like purplepadres said, snacking is not encouraged. If you exercise, you can do a small pre-workout (fat and protein) and a post-workout (protein and carbs) mini-meal. The goal is to have meals that keep you satisfied for 4-5 hours in between, so snacking isn't usually necessary. After week 1, my snacking desires went away, but the first week was hard as I was figuring out how much to eat at each meal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
