Default Do you eat 3 square meals a day?

Just wondered if you eat three meals a day or maybe a late breakfast then a late lunch or early dinner? I know if you have young kids in the house that it's probably three good meals a day. So, this is probably more for the older crowd with the kids out of the house. We have a tendency to eat two a day. It is especially good for me if I am tying to loose a little weight. So what's your schedule or do you have one?

No, I know I should eat 3 meals a day but I only eat one. I eat at dinner and sometimes an after dinner snack. I know this is not good for my metabolism.

My meals are never square. Hey, are you calling me square? I try for more of a triangle or octagon shape, keeps things moving & flowing nice.

I have small kids and for about the past two weeks I have had maybe one meal a day and maybe a snack. Quite a few of these meals have been nothing more than a small bowl of cereal.

Well I know that you really should eat several small meals a day, especially if you are trying to loose weight. It all depends on how the days starts with us. If up real early and have an early breakfast, we will more then likely be hungry again around lunch time, then that means dinner. My ideal is a late breakfast then late lunch dinner combo.

Good answer cero! I'm more of a circle and keep things going round the right way! I don't eat 3 square meals ever. I think the new thing is several smaller meals throughout the day anyway - not 3 square anymore.

If I'm lucky I eat once or twice a day. Chasing two kids around the house all day often keeps me too busy to stop and eat more than a quick snack now and then.
