Question: Have people here been telling you to eat 5-6 small meals a day!?
I had no luck with it at all - I couldn't keep the meals small, I ended up with 5 or 6 largish meals a day!. Eventually swapped to 3 meals a day limiting snacks to just fruit or vegies, drank loads of water, exercised - lost 25lbs in 4 months!. Easy! Here's a newspaper article about the myth of 5-6 meals a day:

5-6 is a nice idea!.!.!.
Find me a single personal trainer who's able to do it (hell, most of us get stuck working on our lunch breaks)
The other problem !.!. 6 meals a day works great, if I'm a guy, and I'm allotted 2400 cals a day due to my size/activity level/goal!.!. that's 400 cals a meal!.!.!.
If you're a woman, and your size/activity level/goal only get you about 1300 cals/day!.!. that's not even 250 cals/meal!!
Compliance gets too damned difficult!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

"We found it's not when you eat that matters, but what and how much you eat!." (from the article)
I think everyone should follow their body's natural patterns!. For a lot of people eating several small meals does help them lose weight because they don't ever feel extremely hungry, which can lead to overeating!. I think people recommend this because people often think that to lose weight, you should eat less!. Eating several times a day gives people the mental relief of being able to eat all day long!. However, there are others who can't stop eating once they start, so fewer meals is a little better!.
I think people should experiment, as you have, with different meal plans to find one that works with their natural chemistry!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
