[quote=Anonymous]I used to be a snacker. a light breakfast, then a snack at 10:30, then lunch, then an afternoon snack, then a small dinner, then at bedtime more food. All of it was 'healthy' and pretty low fat/high volume. I felt like I was hungry all the time.

Now, I basically have 2 meals a day and one light snack as a third. I never eat after dinner. I think the constant grazing kept me hungry, and then because I was snacking I was not eating satisfying meals. My weekend days consist of this: coffee with whole milk in the morning, then a workout. Lunch is either full or low fat greek yogurt with almonds and berries or a scramble (eggs, spinach, cheese) on a piece of (avocado) toast. I have a light snack around 4--apples and a piece of cheese, or hummus and crackers. Dinner is salad, veggies, a protein based main course (fatty fish, chicken, occasionally pasta, maybe a curry). Glass of wine is my treat.

Stopping snacking has also stopped the sugar cravings significantly. If there's good chocolate around I will have a square but I rarely have the 3 pm intense coffee//sugar cravings where I am basically dying at my desk. [/quote]
