Actually, you are supposed to eat 5 small meals per day. And I do. Here's an example:
Early morning: 1 small to medium sized Banana
Late morning: 1 cup high fiber cereal with 8 ounces fat free yogurt and 1/2 cup berries
Early afternoon: 1-1/2 ounces of 50% or 75% fat free cheese
Late afternoon: 2 cups of Salad with 2 ounces lean protein and fat free, calorie free dressing
Early evening: 4 ounces lean protein, 1/2 cup whole grains, 1 cup steamed vegetables. A piece (1 ounce) of dark chocolate for dessert.
That's approximately 1400 calories for the day.

not really. I always eat breakfast and I eat a yummy creative salad for dinner usually. In between I might have an apple or some yogurt or banana. I never eat 3 definite solid meals though.

I agree. I broke removed from the "3 squares an afternoon" and started eating 7-10 small nutrients/snacks. interior the final 3 months I lost 30 kilos and am lots closer to the way my physique is meant to look and artwork...

Not really. I'm never hungry in the morning, so I ususally don't eat until around 1 in the afternoon.
