I see nothing wrong in eating 5-6 mini meals/day, it's actually recommended, especially if you eat healthy mini meals. Eating often keeps my metabolism running evenly and I never have any sugar lows or highs. Today I had an atrocious eating day but my day is usually like this:
M1 - oatmeal with eggwhite omelette
M2 - 1/3c cottage cheese with strawberries and Splenda
M3 - 4 oz tuna or chicken with either salad or veggies sometimes a slice of bread
M4 - protein powder made with soy milk and strawberries
M5 - 4 oz steak, salmon, shrimp or whatever protein with a salad or veggies sometimes some rice...
M6 - If I'm hungry I may have oatmeal, I could live on oatmeal
I love it...
This day of food will average about 1500 to 1700 cals when I put it on Fitday.com ...
