6 meals a day? :( How...?


Sorry to come across as harsh or anything but how in the hell is a 17 year old who lives a fairly busy lifestyle supposed to eat 6 healthy meals a day?

What times should I eat? What should I eat for each one? Like...are they snacks between breakfast lunch and dinner, or are they all equally big 'meals'? I mean, wouldn't that be bad for me because I play rugby at 3, wouldn't I get cramped or something if I ate a meal beforehand?

And I take Whey, I'm assuming the right time is to take it POST-workout right?

Thx for answering...basically I wanna know when I should eat and how much/what I should be eating, because I'm clueless.

People say to eat 6 meals a day and eat healthy and give me a big list of food to eat but what should I eat when and how much you know? I'm only 17 I have no clue lmao :confused:

I like to call them snacks. Each meal/snack needs a protein, carb and fat.

Try this

or Here is a sample diet of mine.

4:45a 1/2 cup fiber one cereal & non-fat milk
5:15a Workout
6:30a Whole orange, 1/2 banana, 1/2 cup cottage cheese, 1/2 scoop whey isolate, water (all blended together)
8:00a 1 oz rolled oats, 1 oz rice medly (cooked), 1/2 oz dried cranberries, 1/2 scoop soy
11:30a 1/2 cup corn, chicken patty (Morningstar farms), baby carrots
2:30p Medium apple, 2 hard boiled eggs
6:30p 1 cup steamed cabbage, 4 oz grilled salmon

Modify by adding in sausage patties (Morningstar Farms), cottage cheese, eggs, tuna, rice & beans wherever it makes sense. EVERY meal needs to have protein (15-20grms for your size) and some carb source (exception might be my preworkout meal is quite small)

WOW that's perfect, AND do-able, thx a lot, I'll try and stick to this, but lunch may be hard as the Caf at school usually has so many tasty foods :O
