HEALTHY EATING STYLE
Eat four to six times a day.
Eat either six small meals or three meals and three snacks each day. This
means you are eating every two to three hours. The benefit of eating this way
is that you will avoid extreme hunger and be less inclined to overeat and
create a healthy environment within yourself.
Ex. 8 am, 10 am, 12 pm, 2 pm,
4 pm, and 6pm.
