how many times do u eat

[magicbeans]

looking at peoples menus for the day i noticed a lot of u have ur bf, lunch and dinner and a few snacks. thing is i would probably go back for food in between...i thought u could. like if i had jacket and beans at 12 might want that again at 4? and then after dinner...if im up late go have some syn free chips quite late....

am i eating too much...as in are u allowed to eat as much but only 3 times a day?

There are no restrictions as to when you eat or how often you eat with SW.....thats the great thing about it.
I tend to eat three meals and snack on fruit and yogurt inbetween if I want it, but thats because I'm not really a snacker and prefer to eat huge meals which means I don't get that hungry betwen meals.
The choice is yours!

I have a huge cooked breaky everyday at about 10.30 so thats my dinner and breakfast. I have some fruit and yogurts inbetween and then a nice big tea. Then a couple of vodkas to finish off the day and relax. xxx

my snacks on my menus are things i eat between meals, aswell as at night. if you're hungry then eat

I try to only eat fruit and yoghurt between my meals but if I am hungry then I will eat! If we have our evening meal about 5.30 then I will want something else about 9.30 or so and I'll have it but if we eat later then I won't. If it's free food and i'm hungry, i'll eat it!

Before I started I used to go to work and not eat til 2pm which would be a sandwich then as soon as i got home (absoloutly starving)i would eat constantly til bed time. Ive found with this plan I make myself have breakfast, lunch and dinner and have fruit or yoghurt as snacks in between and try not to eat after 7pm. I feel a lot better for it i have more energy through the day and my mood is lot better (dont come home so ratty). I think you have to look at what suits your lifestyle but make sure you dont leave it too long between meals as your more likely to binge.

I also eat inbetween meals. If I want something I'll have it x

me too, most of the time it will be fruit and/or mullerlights, but sometimes I will have some eggs, or bacon or use my syns and have chocolate/crisps etc, so really don't worry about how much you are eating as long as it is free food and while ever you are losing weight, its really not important

I mostly only snack on fruit and yogurt, but I have been known to have 2 dinners if I'm still hungry and the first one wasn't enough! I also sometimes pick at things like leftover sw chips in the fridge while I'm getting the milk out for my cuppa.

I just eat when i am feeling hungry and if i fancy a snack i tend to have healthier things than i used to like a bit of fruit or a muller light. I would usually have my breakfast mid morning, lunch about 1.30 and my tea about 7. I find that fills me up enough!
