Isn’t 6 meals a day too much?

Q: I eat 5-6 meals a day, but I was trying to eat normal meals that many times and it was too much food.

Mozzy: A small meal should contain a complex carb or fruit/veggie, lean protein, and an essential fat (Omega 3 and 6).  You can usually get your protein and essential fat in one shot by eating nuts or fish.  These are rich in protein and high in essential fatty acids.  Eat just enough to satisfy that gnawing hunger to get you to your next meal 2 to 3 hours later. 

A small meal for me might be an apple and some cottage cheese or half a tuna or turkey sandwich.  Then I'll eat the other half of the sandwich for my next meal.  Another small meal example might be some broccoli, a handful of nuts and a couple of ham and cheese slices. Some prefer to eat 3 normal size meals and two very small snacks.  I think Dr. Phil's program recommends this.  This is good also, in my view.
