Yes, that is what my surgeon's office says as well.

juneau got a reaction from CosRoc in How many times a day should you eat?
I'm relieved to hear this. I was beating myself up for needing a snack between meals. She also doesn't want us to get "Protein obsessed" and says 60 grams a day is fine. I feel like this is so different from what other people are going through. After eating a little but of an egg for Breakfast i am now sipping on a premier Protein shake and feeling less guilty after hearing what you guys are saying. I exercised quite a bit yesterday and I'm also in the 3 week plateau (which I am trying to embrace, but I'm wondering if not getting enough protein/calories is contributing to it)

My nutritionist recommends only eating 2-3 times a day with purposeful fasting in between, but it seems like I am seeing several people say they eat Snacks / several small meals a day. I'm 4 weeks post op, but I still feel hunger between meals. I know some people don't feel as hunger, but I guess I'm still dealing with head hunger and trying to get stomach acid in check. I do know when I drink more Water and take the antacid it is easier to ignore. I'm just curious if other people's nutritionists recommend more than 2-3 meals a day.
