  • Not me. I eat 3 times a day, pretty scheduled (breakfast around 9 am, lunch around 1 pm, and dinner around 6 pm), and if I am feeling munchy and have calories leftover, will sometimes have a snack aft

2.5 to 3 hours (I use timers). Anything more than that and i start feeling weak.

4 oz?

I generally eat about every 3 hours or so. I usually have a protein shake for breakfast, 1 oz of nuts for a snack, some sort of protein for lunch (around 4 oz.), 1 oz of cheese for a snack & then protein for dinner. Sometimes I will have another oz of nuts or maybe turkey pepperoni chips that I make.

I'm only 3 weeks out and can't eat every 2 hours. I only have 2 oz of whatever (chicken, tuna, etc) when I do eat and it takes about 45 minutes to eat that! I've been trying to do a protein type snack once a day, but it's hard.

My doctor said to eat only when you are hungry. But I still struggle to get the 60 grams of protein in a day because I'm not hungry very much.

This is a problem cuz I never feel hungry

Not me. I eat 3 times a day, pretty scheduled (breakfast around 9 am, lunch around 1 pm, and dinner around 6 pm), and if I am feeling munchy and have calories leftover, will sometimes have a snack after dinner.

I can eat my 3oz in 10min...but the 4th oz takes about the next 20min. I'm just trying to figure my body out still. :/

I forget to eat because I'm not hungry. Really need to concentrate on protein as I'm only getting about 30g a day. Liquid isn't an issue but can't do protein shakes.

In yte beginning my doctor said to forget what the NUT said and only eat when hungry. (Something about me having enoigh stored fat for my body to survive off of) I had the concentrated protein to make sure i got that in and i was good to go for 3months

3 meals a day and no snacking per my doctor's plan.
