Walking the Walk - Day 3

pizzaDay 3: Guess what we had for dinner last night? Pizza. Guess how many calories are in one slice? 300, roughly. Do you know how hard it is to eat just one slice of pizza? Nearly impossible. But, I prevailed. Probably because of the eggs I ate a few hours earlier -- scrambled with peppers and onion.

I'm struggling with the idea of five small meals. I find myself still falling into the meal/snack/meal/snack/meal pattern, which is technically fine, I think, but doesn't seem like it's probably what Jorge and others who subscribe to this theory had in mind.

I mean, we all know it's pretty easy to use up 300 calories in a snack -- I'm so tempted to grab a Kashi bar and a cheesestick, for example. But I'm pretty sure that's not the idea here; the idea is not to just spread your calories around, but to make each small meal nutritious and balanced.

Still working on that one, I guess.
