Your Appetite?

[jglass]

I'm curious how many times a day we all eat
I get hungry every 4 hours like clock work.
If I eat around 8am then I want something around 12pm. Then I eat dinner about 5pm and sometimes a snack before bed. I TRY not to eat anything 3 hours before bed. Jon and I both have hypoglycemia and can get grouchy as heck when our blood sugar is low. I have stopped more than once when we are out and about and bought him a doughnut or crackers and cheese. When he crashes he gets mean lol.

I'm on about the same schedule for regular meals, but with a snack meal thrown inbetween if there is a longer period between meals....about 10am....3pm....and 7pm. No sweets though. Maybe salsa or vegetable nibbles. My downfall is tortilla chips.

I get the urge to snack at night. I have really bad acid refux and eating before bed is the worst lol. My weaknesses are nacho cheese doritos and salsa or cheddar jalapeno dip. I won't even go down that isle at the store because if they are here Im gonna be into them.

Because I work the graveyard shift, my schedule is whacko.

I go to bed at 9:00AM after either a bowl of oatmeal/banana or cheerios/yogurt.

I rise at aprox. 3:00PM to another bowl of cereal.

At about 7:00PM I eat "supper".

At 2:30AM while at work I eat "lunch" which is normally a slightly smaller, scaled-down version of the same thing I had at home that night.

I eat once every 4 hours approx. nothing "ground in stone" though! Sometimes if I am not hungry I do not eat. My downfall is Ice Cream, I Love it!!!

What r u'r FAV flavors, Cathy?

There's hardly a flavor I can't enjoy- but I'm partial to Butter Pecan, and Ben & Jerry's Vanilla Heath-Bar Crunch! Also, we have a local creamery and they have a flavor I like called Brown Sugar-Black Walnut.

Mint Chocolate Chip and French Vanilla!

ooo Butter Pecan and Black walnut are among my favorite flavors. I also like rum raisin.

According to my co-workers I never stop eating. I also am hypo-glycemic. If my blood sugar runs low I just can't move. I have to lay on the floor until someone brings food. The funniest part is when I'm really hungry like that I throw up. Isn't that weird? So anyway I have snacks in my car in my desk and in my purse for when I get the shakes. I eat a lot of pickles, pumpkin seeds, fruit and veggie sticks to keep my energy up between meals. For me meals are also about every 4 hours and I don't eat after 7PM. If I go to sleep on a full stomach I have nighmares that make Freddy Kruger look like Little Orphan Annie.

I'm bad. I only eat one meal a day and that's dinner. The rest of the day is coffee for breakfast and lunch. I do eat breakfast on Sunday mornings though because I look forwards to making it.
