remember, this plan is build around the idea that its better to eat less per meal and more meals.
it's also tailored for our training so it might be a bit protein heavy...but that will do nothing but good (as long as you keep on training!!!)

Wow, I got up early and I was really hungry this morning! Even so, I only got through step five for breakfast, and I was STUFFED FULL!!

I don't know if I'll have any *room* for a mid-morning snack!

What's that? Don't eat it all at once....spread it out over several days?

Well! I just think you might have TOLD us! geesh!

(or was this your plan--get us all fat so you'll win the race? Just wait--you are getting chocolate for Christmas! LOTS of chocolate! And a side of bacon.)

So, what is the time frame for this diet plan? Meaning, how far apart should we keep our meals and snacks, etc. Is there a time in the evening after which we should not eat?

Thanks!

Wow, thanks! Looks like some good alternatives to the same-ole-same everyday... can't wait to give 'em a try!

It doesn't really matter how far apart you spread your meals...whenever you eat is whenever you eat, but just know that you only get one snack between each so space it as you see fit!
