I snack all day and it works well for me. I plan out all my food so I know what I can smack on and I look forward to it. For example, my snacks today include a small tomato, skim mozzarella cheese stick, an ounce of cashews and some turkey jerky. Most of those are slow to digest which is great because I stay satiated. I also include high fiber complex carbs. All approved by my dietitian. Everyone is different so you have to find your sweet spot. My husband, who does not have a weight problem, can be happy with 3 squares a day and not snack at all. I can't do that because I still get hungry and if I get too hungry I make poor choices. Plus I lift weights so my metabolism is burning up those calories.
