One of the main benefits of eating 6 small meals/snacks is that you never really get ravenously hungry and so you tend to eat less. This has the benefit of allowing your stomach to shrink so you feel full sooner. This won’t happen instantly, but it will happen over time. A third benefit is that your blood sugar tends to stay more constant throughout the day and so your metabolism is generally faster and you just feel better.
But, you have to be deliberate in your meal planning- especially if you have a job that doesn’t allow for this easily. So, you might need to take a small cooler with you that has some of your food so you aren’t tempted to eat out of the candy bar machine! Eating out- especially fast food is a killer. Keep it to no more than once a week- or never.
Coming up soon are some suggestions for what these 6 small meals should look like.
