DonRodolfo 1,416 Posted August 23, 2013 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.

How do you fit your Water into this schedule? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beach Lover 1,084 Posted August 24, 2013 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DonRodolfo 1,416 Posted August 24, 2013 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.

You made my day!! 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. 2 grandmacathy and Kaj reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DonRodolfo 1,416 Posted August 24, 2013 Don where is your support group in Dallas? I live in Dallas 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 ).
