Question Posted Friday July 29 2005, 2:13 pm

I heard that if you have six small meals a day, then you lose weight. If you do, what should you eat, and how often?

Thanks in advance!

I don't think thats intirerly true. Try 3 meals a day that are in the Meat, Dairy, Bread, Fruit, and maybe a snack like an apple or something. If you eat that and no sweets, you'll lose weight in no time.

What you heard is true. The reason it works is that it keeps your blood sugar levels balanced so there are no lows or highs that will cause you to crave more food. Also since you're eating every few hours, you don't feel hungry.

Usually you eat three balanced meals with three healthy snacks. I'll give you an example so you can see what I mean.

Breakfast-English muffin and peanut butter
Morning Snack-Graham crackers with a banana
Lunch-Ham and swiss sandwich
Afternoon Snack-Apple and cheese
Dinner-Steak fajitas
Evening Snack-Peaches with yogurt

nope... not true... you loose weight by eating 3 meals a day, in somewhat smaller portions, and by not having snacks in between...

ummm...
SIX?

6?
i don't think so sweetheart

I don't know wher you got your info, but its way off.

3 square meals a day will do fine with healthy snacks in between.

I have never heard of eating six(small) meals per day and get thiner.....


anyway, hope i helped

&hearts;Yes, what you heard is true. By eating 5-6 small meals a day instead of 3 large ones, your metabolism gets faster, which helps your body burn fat and calories. Eating every 3 hours has this same effect, so try and do this too. What you eat is what you just said, small meals. They should be light, healthy, and partially lowfat. Some examples of small meals can be:

--Sandwhich with whole wheat bread, meat, cheese, and lettuce/tomatoe.
--Small bowl of healthy soup.
--A salad. Try and stay away from creamy dressings if you are on a diet.
--A fruit salad. Different fruits and melons with some yogurt to dip them in.
--Cheese and crackers with other toppings.
--Pita bread with Hummus or other bean spread.

Be sure to eat small portions, or you won't be able to eat the times you are supposed to.

yeah its true it will keep your metabolism high so you will digest the food better. basically what you should do is just break up your regular meals into 6 small meals. just try not to deviate from the food pyramid too much, though on this sort of diet it is good to have a few more callories something like 2500 instead of 2000.
