I am trying to lose weight and I work 12 hours a day. I don't have time to eat 6 meals a day.

I know just how that is! Getting in a good meal is a challenge; one that I can't always meet. Balance your meals with the right amount of whole grain carbs, lean protein, and fruits/veggies. (check out the food pyramid and tracker--it's free!--at www.mypyramid.com) Ideally, find a way to sneak in at least one snack. Is there a way you can get a five minute break in the middle of the afternoon? I've found this keeps me OUT of the vending machine! Snacks are a great way to get your five a day that you might not get at meal time. A small piece of fruit w/a dab of peanut butter or nuts or a one ounce piece of cheese will help satisyfy you while reving up your brain.

You don't have to eat a complete meal , but every three hours have a snack like yogurt, nuts just a small handful, Apple or banana. This keeps you from having low blood sugar which is going to make you very hungry, irritable and can cause you to overeat.

Just eat more of each meal,dont eat less because it will make u jump for food alot,and occasionally u will find urself in a trance
But my oppinion is opposite - i prefer eating many smaller meals during day
You can plan how-many meals u wish,but wont get slim if you dont respect certain food rules,dont combine too diffrent food...use some diet tips...etc you wont loose ur weight ever

As Steve pronounced, you have hit a plateau. It skill you will possibly desire to step up your intensity and workouts. attempt yet another form of cardio, like working, cycling or perhaps yoga (a lot of loose yoga movies on YouTube, 5 to 60 minutes in era) and attempt plyometric workouts, weight education or capability lifting. you could word which you will possibly desire to devour somewhat greater once you start up doing this, so this 2000 calorie element you have going on will particularly help you once you kick up your exercising habitual.

Is it possible that you can take a nutrition bar or something that be microwaved at work?
Or,maybe you can make a salad or sandwich to eat on a break?

eat a lot of lean protein and high fiber foods... these will make you feel full longer. also, drink lots of water throughout the day... this will also help you feel satisfied. good luck!
