[jenniferg 7]

So I'm 5 weeks out and I feel like I am eating more than I should? I eat almost every 2 hours I'm getting hungry so I will eat cheese or any snack. What are people eating and how much?

I'm 6 weeks out and have a Protein Shake for breakfast, string cheese about mid morning, for lunch usually 2 oz chicken and 1/4 C veggies, sometimes an afternoon snack, and dinner is about the same size as lunch. I do find myself hungry about every 3 hours, but eating something reasonable doesn't make me feel guilty.

Eating every three hours is ok, but things like cream of wheat and fruit won't stick with you that long so when you eat applesauce it's going to run right through you stomach. Same with sweet potatoes. Always start with Protein even at snack time then at meals have your veggies second.

Breakfast sounds good with the cottage cheese and a bit of fruit. For your Snacks make it count like a bit of chicken or even deli meat and cheese. Or try hummus for a snack also.
