Thread: Dinner

Eating at regular intervals (every 3-4 hours) is important in keeping your metabolism in balance. If you skip it, by the time you wake up, you're in starvation mode and your metabolism has slowed way down.

They say breakfast is the most importent meal of the day, but really all your meals are important. Like sour said you need to keep your metabolism going and you do that by eating. Tonight dinner is comfort food done diet style. Bought Thomas bagel thins and making bagel pizzas with lowfat cheese. And salad.

Depends on how you define "important". Sour hit it on the head as it pertains to your metabolism. As far as nutrionally, that's an entirely different discussion.

IMO "thre square meals a day" has never been important. Eating well balanced "meals" with lots of fruits, grains and vegetables is important while maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

For the New Year I have made up my mind to eat better - In the past i get stressed I don't eat can't - but I have been eating great food every 3-4 hours and it seems to be doing wonders for me mentall y and physically. I've been eliminating some carbs and incorporating a bit more protein with nuts but all within portion. Its not a diet It s total lifestyle change.

I think that it is very important because eating at regularly intervals (every 4-5 hours) and it's important in keep your metabolism in balance. If you hop it, by the point you wake up, you're in starvation form or your metabolism has sluggish mode down.
