Does anyone actually only eat 3 times a day?

[Guest NoCalMike]

I don't think I know anyone who only just eats breakfast, lunch and dinner. There has to be snacking. Especially if your job involves physical work at all.

 

Personally, I usually don't have time for breakfast. If I am lucky, I throw down some cereal. I used to eat some fast food for lunch. Now I don't really eat a "lunch" I just snack on chips or occasionally I will find time to pick up some McDonalds. For dinner I eat a big meal. I think my problem is I eat a lot during night-time hours, which I hear makes you gain more weight.

[Guest Shaved Bear]

well I'm never up for breakfast, when i wake up, lunch is just too close to dinner, so i stave off my hunger till dinner, then snack for the rest of the day

[Guest dreamer420]

i skip breakfast and lunch, and then eat dinner every night followed by a snack in the later hours, depending on the munchies or not.

[Guest treble charged]

I always have breakfast, but sometimes that's late enough to count as lunch. If I work until 9 (which I do most nights), then I'll have sometime at around 4 or 5, and then something when I get home. I always have snacks and such during the day, too.

[Guest Flyboy]

I usually ALWAYS eat breakfast... it's a must for me. I really don't eat lunch at all... sometimes. Most of the time, I just snack. I usually eat dinner/supper, too.. so I guess 2 times a day.

[Guest gthureson]

I only eat breakfast and dinner, actually.

 

I rarely have lunch.

 

There are alot of days that breakfast only consists of a cup of coffee as well.

 

 

I'm weird though.

[Guest Sandman9000]

It depends on when I wake up.

 

Before 10: breakfast, then lunch around 1.

 

After 10: Skip directly to lunch.

I have three eggs every morning and a piece of peanut-buttered toast for breakfast with a tall glass of milk. This gives me enough energy that I'm not hungry until dinner. It's healthy and economical. Try it.

[Guest Mark4steamboat]

Im in training for shaping up my body for when i go to wrestling school so i eat everyday for the last 2 weeks:

4 raws eggs in a glass(sorry but raw eggs taste good to me)

Half of a bagel, no cream cheese or anything.

Protein shake.

Lunch:

Any kind of pasta and a salad. If there is any leftover steak or chicken, than i eat a piece too.

Dinner:

Either a porterhouse or a ribeye on mondays, thursdays,and saturdays.

Chicken Breasts on Tuesdays and wednesdays.

Pasta on Fridays and Sundays.

 

i rarely snack anymore but when i do snack, its either carrots OR wheat thins and cream cheese because i cant live without that simple pleasure/

[Guest KingOfOldSchool]

Only on rare occasions, do I eat breakfast or lunch. From the time I wake up until evening, if I feel hungry, I snack on something; and even this is rare. Dinner is often the only time that I eat what could be considered a full meal.

 

Thing is, I feel thirsty, more than I ever feel hungry... It's always been this way for me. So I end up drinking tons of liquid (some healthy stuff, some unhealthy) throughout the day, to the point that breakfast and lunch have been very much replaced.

[Guest MarvinisaLunatic]

Its much healthier to eat 5-6 small meals (breakfast, snack?, lunch,snack, dinner, snack) then just 3 meals cause its proven that you'll eat way more towards the end of the day if just eat 3 meals a day.

[Guest RetroRob215]

My first breakfast is around 10:30. I usually have a brunch around 12:00. I snack until 1:30, which is when I have lunch. The snacking continues on and off until dinner at 6:00. I usually have some oreos or ice cream around 11:00.

 

And somehow my body fat composition is only 22%. Fast metabolisms KICK ASS!!

[Guest Mark4steamboat]

hate to brag but,

9% body fat.

[Guest RobJohnstone]

shiiit, I try to eat breakfast but, I normally stay in bed 10 minutes later than I want so no time. Then if it's busy at work, I won't take lunch so I can keep up, I must have a huge dinner though. I think the best possible meal plan would be, huge breakfat, huge luch, small dinner, like the europeans do.

That's just too low... As long as it's below 25%, I'm in shape. I used to know the formula, but I don't remember it now.

[Guest Mr. Slim Citrus]

22% for a guy is officially fat in the navy; I try to stay between 12 and 15 percent, but I'm at 17 right now (which, I believe, is fat for the Marine Corps...)

 

Guess it's off to the gym for me...

[Guest RetroRob215]

Does anyone know of a site that could tell me exactly what my body fat compostion is? I know you have to measure yourself and all, but I don't know the formula to get the final percentage.

[Guest thefrenchargel]

I eat one big pile of food per day and that's it. I almost never snack.

[Guest Choken One]

I always thought the fourmula was Height/Weght divided. The last I had my BF checked it was 18 but I've added serious muscle (esp. Lower Body)
