I want to get your ideas

about the small meals that my doctor stated that I should be having. I have been sleeping alot lately and dozing at weird times. I usually eat lunch dinner and a snack but they stated that I should eat five small meals. So if you have any suggestions I will welcome them, thanks and huggs.

When I want a snack I like to grab some cottage cheese, strawberries w/cool whip, banana w/peanut butter, s/f pudding or just even wrap a piece of turkey and cheese together. I usually have 3 main meals and 2 snacks daily (so I guess its like 5 small meals per day). My typical day looks like~ B~oatmeal pancake w/sf syrup S~strawberries w/cool whip L~salad w/ turkey, cheese, croutons, ranch D~something like chicken, chili, cottage cheese, taco w/out the shell, etc. this is the hardest meal of the day for me to try to figure out. S~something listed above I can eat a pretty good amount of food now, but I try not to graze on anything throughout the day. Eating something several times a day has helped me not to reach for the quick fix as much b/c I don't every get super starving b4 I eat. Good Luck to You! Tracy B 328/153 5'9"

Tracy, Would you share your oatmeal pancake recipe with me? I'm not a breakfast eater by nature so I have to make myself eat breakfast and I'm always on the lookout for something that temps me. Thanks! Vickie J. e-mail: [email protected]
