    I'm wondering about how everyone is defining "snacks". I was told to eat 5-6 small meals a day, and I've seen that described in many places as 3 "meals" and 2-3 "snacks" with the term "snacks" jus

    You bring up a good point about definition of Snacks as I think we all have been given different guidelines. I do 5 small meals a day. 200-250 calories focusing on Protein. I consider grazing...whi

  • I do find that snacking leads to stalls and or weight gain for me. I have to be very careful because I also get reactive hypoglycemia so i pretty much eat very small meals all day long. That is a slip

@@theantichick sorry I wasn't clear in my latest post in this thread! No snacks *other than protein shakes.* I had 1-2 protein shakes daily throughout my weight loss period. I didn't mind them at all, as long as I had the right brand & flavor of powder. I did a lot of experimenting and some were much more successful than others!

Ok, that makes a LOT more sense. To me, the Protein shake is a mini-meal. So if I ate 3 "food" meals and 2 shakes, I would count that as 5 small meals. That's why I posted about what everyone is calling "snacking" because I didn't think we were all using the same terms. LOL.

I am frankly over the shakes. I'm down to one flavor with one brand I can stand, even though I keep trying all of the others as well as concoctions to try and flavor them differently. :(

I make 3oz pudding shots. Any flavor sugar free pudding, 2 cups skim milk, 5 scoops unflavored Isopure. pour into 6 tiny Rubbermaid and chill. 20oz Protein. Easier. For me than a protein shake.

I need to do something like this. But nutrasweet gives me migraines. I've debated doing it with full sugar pudding and trying to make pudding from scratch with splenda or monk fruit. :(

pudding masks it. I love the banana cream pie.

Cottage cheese or greek yogurt. Greek yogurt is often made from milk that has been enriched by boiling off some of its Water content, or by adding extra butterfat and powered milk, It contains a higher Protein density than regular yogurt, which is largely casein protein. Cottage cheese does, too. You can find more about health benefits of cottage cheese at https://wikihomenutrition.com/cottage-cheese-health-benefits/
