Believe or not, you need to snack to lose weight. That doesn’t mean you grab a cupcake or a bag of chips. You need HEALTHY snacks for weight loss/maintenance. Snacks help your blood sugar from going way up and way down. You want to keep all of your body levels consistent with a steady supply of fuel and snacking helps with that. Snacks also help you from becoming too hungry between meals. You don’t want to go into your next meal starving.
My daily food schedule is as follows:
Breakfast
Snack #1
Lunch
Snack #2
Snack #3
Dinner
Here is an article about snacking for you to check out:
