How many meals do you eat a day?

[Sinmara]

Am I stoned or sober?

Usually one meal with s snack or two in the mix. Two or three meals when I'm more physically active.

 

[Luke O]

Breakfast, lunch and dinner.

 

[Ingrid in grids]

Usually two, or sometimes one larger meal and a snack/coffee. I have a slow metabolism and tend not to feel very hungry.

 

[prplchknz]

between 1 and 2 depending. sometimes i eat 3 sometimes none but usually 1 and 2

 

[Frosty]

I snack really, dont usually eat regular meals

 

[Silent]

I eat as many meals as I like which varies from 3 to 5 or even 7, but usually small meals.

 

[Kullervo]

Three or four (some days I have a "afternoon" meal as well)...I have a high metabolism. My largest meal is lunch, usually.

I also drink a lot, and I mean a LOT. Like two litres of water a day, and a litre of whole milk. Beer replaces some of both in the weekend.

Anyway I expect to be fed, the sight of a girl picking at a salad pitifully incurs my wrath. Exercise my love, and then you won't get fat!

 

[Lia_kat]

Three, usually with a lot of snacks in between. I have a fast metabolism, get hungry quickly and eat a lot (try my best to keep it healthy though).

 

[Hawthorne]

Not enough, usually.

But I started something new this past week. 5-6 solid meals daily. The start was pretty rough but it's marginally better now.

 

[ceecee]

5 smaller meals, usually.

Ok, so it looks like there is a lot of variety among users in the forums. I just thought I would ask this question because I was wondering how normal my eating habits are.

Frankly, I don't understand the concept of having 3 full meals a day. Unless I had time to exercise strenuously every day, I'm quite sure that I'd be a massive fatass if I attempted that. Normally, I try to eat one or two (if I am maybe going to be awake longer or full meals a day (and may have a snack if it is just one meal). I know that this way you run the risk of vitamin/mineral deficiencies, but that's nothing a multivitamin can't fix.

I don't keep track of my eating... I just sorta eat based on two things:

1. I'm hungry and need food to preserve my physical and mental wellbeing, so that I can survive and reproduce more humans.
2. I feel like shit so I cope with it by eating
2. eating is like breathing
2. who cares as long as you're not starving
2. to remind my stomach of its purpose, and that it is loved dearly just like every other one of my children.
2. im bored
2. hey wat is that? ill never find out unless i eat it
2. hey why does this exist? my brain is two stupid ill let my stomach decide for me.
2. I'm fat and want mor

You have an interesting concept of the number 2.

 

[Chrysanthe]

You have an interesting concept of the number 2.

well because all those reasons for number two could be fit into one reason:

im fat

 

[magpie]

As many as I can tolerate.

 

[á´…eparted]

1 or 2

 

[CitizenErased]

Since I was 15 I eat 6 times a day, every 3 hours: breakfast, snack, lunch, tea, snack, dinner. A nutritionist prepared the plan, since my weight used to vary a lot depending on my schedule/emotional state and sometimes I would forget to eat or wolf down everything I had at home. That way my body is used to schedules, I eat regularly and I'm never hungry enough to make the weekly shopping disappear in a day.

 

[Yama]

I don't eat breakfast, bad I know but I just can't.

I just eat when I'm hungry. 1 or 2 times per day, with some snacking in between.

 

[Smilephantomhive]

I usually eat 2 "full meals" a day, but I mostly eat when I'm hungry. I hate going to my relatives to eat brunch because I can't eat a lot of food at once. Then I'll get hungry a few hours later, and my parents will scold me for getting something to eat and now eating enough at the brunch. So basically I like snacking on things.
