eating between meals

[kamsmom13 32]

Does anyone eat between meals? If so what do you eat?

[notime 340]

I take my Calcium, Multivitamin, Iron and B-12 during the day, using them as Snacks.< /p>

Does anyone eat between meals? If so what do you eat?

Yes. i have a timer on my smartphone that goes off every two hours. Here's a typical day for me

First meal: Protein shake made with PB2, usually on the way to work

Morning snack: 1/2 cup egg salad

Lunch: 1/2 cup chicken salad

Afternoon snack: could be Jerky, Ostrim, a Protein Bar, or a Syntrax shake

Dinner: usually leftovers from last night's restaurant trip

After dinner snack: don't usually have this, but when I do I try to keep it light such as another sytrax nectar.

Nothing wrong with LIGHT mayo! I'm going to use regular myself, in small doses.

How do you fit your Water into this schedule?

[Beach Lover 1,084]

I will snack on some cubed cheese, nuts, beef Jerky, hard boiled egg, piece of lunch meat, sf popsicles etc. It doesn't take but a little bit to satisfy me.

How do you fit your Water into this schedule?

I confess I'm not great with Water and I could be better. It's not for lack of ability, I can down a Protein shake in about 10 minutes and have no issue with water either. I'm finding I'm better at water when I'm at the gym and trying to keep myself hydrated. I bring a 32oz water bottle to the gym and it's usually empty when I leave an hour later.

Glad to help!

If you're interested, the app I use is called "Tom's Multi Timer Free" - I don't know if it's made for iPhone as I have an android but it's been incredibly helpful! Right now, I have two timers set up - one for timing between meals and another for timing how soon I can have Water after eating.

A combo of lite mayo (1 part) and fat-free yogurt (2 parts) - it's quite yummy!

I currently go to two regularly, could be three depending on how the one tomorrow goes!

Here is a list I posted of all the ones in the DFW area: http://www.verticals...rt-groups-list/

I go to the one at Methodist Hospital (corner of Beckley and Colorado), the one run by Kevin Levin (THINspiration) in Plano, and looking at After the Cut which meets tomorrow morning. I've been invited by friends to several other ones in Plano which I'm considering (one of those friends goes to four different groups regularly every month ).
