Five small meals a day takes the edge off
your appetite, evens out blood sugar levels, and keeps your energy
steady. Eat healthy food every few hours.
Easier said than done in my busy schedule. Here’s a few tips that I’ve incorporated to
make my meal program a success.
Plan ahead. Five meals a day equates to breakfast, snack, lunch, snack and dinner.
To accomplish this, plan what your menu.
Schedule to eat every two to three hours.

Stock up. If you don’t have healthy
food on hand, you’re going to grab whatever is closest, so before you try a
five-meal-a-day program, stock up on good food:
complex carbs such as veggies, fruit, lean proteins, and low-fat dairy
products such as milk, yogurt, and cottage cheese.
Go for taste. Choose snack foods that
are healthy and satisfying.
Whip up a smoothie: Blend fruit, milk,
yogurt, and a little honey for a sweet, filling snack packed with vitamins,
fiber, protein, and calcium.
Combine carbs and protein to stay full longer. Think whole wheat toast
with peanut butter or a hard-boiled egg, whole grain pasta with olive oil and
cheese, or oatmeal with fruit, milk, and honey.
