A Day in the Life- Eating 5 to 6 Times a Day
Post by Shannon
Eating five to six times a day has helped me lose weight so much faster than just eating three times a day. When I first heard about this, I thought I'd be eating way too many calories. I also thought it would be too hard to do this with a family, but it wasn't as hard as I thought.
And, the more I did it, the better results I got.
Here is an example of things I like to eat throughout my day.
Breakfast: Chocolate Shakeology with a banana and frozen strawberries
Snack: Plain yogurt with apple slices, honey and chopped walnuts
Lunch: Peanut butter and honey sandwich on whole wheat bread, a spinach salad with tomato slices and balsamic vinaigrette
Snack: 5-10 almonds and a string cheese
Dinner: (See photo above) Whole wheat pasta with veggies and parmesan cheese toasted on sour dough bread. Visit this page to see the recipe for Whole Wheat Penne Primavera
I use lots of zip lock bags and tupperware to carry snacks with me when I'm out of my house. It just takes a little extra planning, but the results are worth it!
