This is the exact problem I have. I eat once a day (sometimes I forget to do that). Please let me know how the CHANTIX works for you I'm very interested. Everyone says you should eat 5 meals a day and have healthy snacks between meals or you should eat every 2 to 3 hrs. and drink lots of water. Well, I understand the reasons and I hear what they are saying but going from one meal to 5 meals equals weight gain in my mind. In addition, 5 meals compaired to one screws up my food budget in a huge way. Plus, I never know if this kind of change should be gradual or what. Certainly exercising helps offset the weight gain but, it is a very big change in my lifestyle and I really fear the weight gain aspect. I read a book by Michle Thurman (the guy who wrote the 6 week makeover program). He does recomend the more meals thing. I did try this for a while but, like most big diatery changes it didn't last. Plus, quiting smoking and making a huge diatery change and increasing my exersising all at the same time seems like a lot to accomplish. I know if I strickly watch what I eat, and make no other changes, I can lose 10-15lbs in 6 weeks or less, however, it almost always leads to eating one meal a day for me. Plus I don't particularaly like eating. Don't get me wrong, I like the occasional steak dinner or lobster or shrimp, but, on a daily basis I really don't like it much. I have a feeling that when I actually quit smoking that part may change, but, mostly I don't like food and the thaught of eating every 2 to 3 hrs. is very unappealling in my mind (I guess I could drink many of the meals).
