Most of us were brought up eating three square meals a day. But nowadays, it seems everyone is encouraging us to eat more often than that -- around five or six meals and snacks a day! So last week we asked you how many times a day you typically eat. Here's what you had to say:

  • A whopping 35% of you eat around six times a day -- roughly three meals and three snacks. Good for you!
  • 25% of you aren't far behind -- you typically eat five small meals a day.
  • 13% of you let the mood guide you -- you eat when you're hungry
  • 12% of you still eat three square meals a day -- hey, whatever works for you!
  • 6% of you don't eat meals at all -- you just snack alot.
  • 4% eat once big meal once a day
  • 2% of you don't keep track
