5 times - 3 meals and 2 snacks for me. When i am hungry, I eat. I just don't over eat.

Re: How many times a day do you eat?

It depends on how busy I am and how well I've eaten during my meals. I do try for 3 meals daily, but sometimes, I'll have a snack in the afternoon.

Usually three meals and one or two small snacks. I've gotten hooked on pumpkin and cinnamon for a snack in the evening.

Three meals and usually one snack at around 3pm, that is when my hunger kicks in and dinner is still too far off. I *could* eat again before bed, but I try not to, I drink 20 oz of water and try to stop eating at dinnertime.

I eat my three meals. I am usually hungrier later in the day, so I try to save some food for after dinner but not too close to bedtime. I also snack (usually in the car on the way home from work) so that I can make the kids' supper without digging into the forbidden stuff!

I eat when I'm hungry!

I always make sure to eat 3 meals, but if I'm hungry, I might have 1 or 2 snacks thrown in the mix.

Mike - be careful not to go more than 6 waking hours without eating 'something'. If not hungry then a small fat/protein/carb snack is fine

5 to 6 small meals every 3 hours. I prefer this over 3.

I usually eat 2 small meals and snack when Im hungry. I make sure to drink my water so I dont mix up thirst with hunger.

Guess everyone is different.

Hummm,

I eat at 9am, then lunch at around 1pm, snack at 3pm, snack at 5pm, and dinner at 7pm. I am very hungry in the afternoons.

I eat when I am hungry. You should never be 'starving'...and if you feel like you are, you should eat a high fat snack, like some pepperoni and cheese.

With that said, I eat my 3 main meals, and usually 2 snacks during the day. Sometimes just my main meals when I'm just not hungry at all..but I find that a snack in the evening really does seem to help with my weight loss.
