Advice about eating in between meals
Jen...it is ok to eat between meals...just make sure it is a positive contribution to your nutrional goals...
Red bell pepper & carrot sticks with two tablespoons of greek yogurt ranch dip (pint of NF greek yogurt mixed with 2/3 packet of ranch dip mix) is a great heathy snack and will satisfy a crunchy, savory craving...adding protein and vitamins to your diet.
I eat 4-5 times per day...sometimes a late morning snack of a rf cheese stick and a mid afternoon snack like the one above or half an Atkins Advantage bar.
My other meals tend to be very "by the book" and about 250 calories. I aim for about 900-1100 calories and this fills the bill.
Drinking water first when I am hungry between meals also helps me to determine if I am hungry or just thirsty...sometimes it feels the same!
Hang in there!!
