My trainer asked me to track eveything that goes in my mouth for 14 days. Good, bad and ugly I'm onna write it down! 
It's already 12:47 and I haven't eaten yet!  This is usually wha happens to me---- I get distracted!  Off to the kitchen!
  9:30 AM      Oatmeal
12:30 PM    Apple and protein supplement    No apples, ate a bananna. Got distracted and didn't prepare the protein drink
 3:30  PM  2:53 Chicken salad, sweet potatoe, 4 shrimp (while fixing salad)
 6:30 PM

 3 Hour Diet or 3 Meals A Day 



Experts debate how often we should eat for weight loss

To eat three meals a day or to eat six small meals a day: that is the question. If you have heard about or read Jorge Cruise's new book, The 3-Hour Diet, you would bet the answer is the latter. But many nutrition researchers out there say, "not so fast!"

Cruise's plan boasts a three-point approach: eat breakfast within one hour of rising, eat every three hours, and stop eating three hours before bedtime. He says this ritualized way of eating increases BMR (baseline metabolic rate), increases energy levels, and decreases appetite, among other things. While many nutrition experts agree that when it comes to weight loss irregular eating patterns and skipped meals can mean trouble for most of us, there isn't anything close to a consensus on whether we are metabolically better off eating three regular meals a day or spreading that out into five or six smaller meals.
