how many meals a day to lose weight?

Question

while dieting/eating healthy how much should I be eating? obviously 3 meals ( breakfast lunch and dinner) how many snacks?  what times should I eat these meals and snacks?  how many smoothies a day?. I seem to be hungry all day long sticking to 3 meals and a few snacks is so hard!

Answer

I eat 6 meals a day when possible I also count macros though which is you caloric intake along with fats proteins and carbs, it's not about counting just calories

Answer

It's actually a very outdated idea that you NEED to eat 3 meals a day everyday. It's less about the number of times and more about your calorie intake as well as fat, protein, etc. Intermittent fasting is starting to become big and it makes total sense to me actually. There's lots of ways to fast but lots of people who do only eat maybe 2 meals a day or between a certain small time frame. Just figure out whatever works best for you and go with that. MyFitnessPal and other types of apps help track your nutrition and macros and stuff.

Answer

I eat 3 small meals and 3 snacks. So, every two hours. Breakfast at 9, snack at 11, lunch at 1 etc. and lots of water.

Answer

This isn't about number of meals, it's about number of calories. Some places say 5 small meals a day, but recent research suggests that it doesn't matter. 3 meals, 6 meals, it doesn't matter. It's about the calories consumed.

Start tracking on MyFitnessPal. Track what you eat. It's the best way to insure you aren't overdoing it.
