    Question Is this how 6 meals a day gos help me out.

    Ok as far as I know six meals a day is supposed to be balanced meals protein fat and carb at each meal.

    Ok I know what six meals a day is small individual balanced meals not three big meals.

    The problem is
    how small is my meals supposed to be?

    I dont want to haft to count calories.

    This is what im thinking a small meal could be something as easy as
    a can of tuna fish some nuts and a half whole wheat english muffin

    like that right?

    Or why dont I just take what I normally eat for breakfast lunch and dinner and split it in half

    And eat at the other half three hours later?

    Can it work that way?

    Im a very healthy eater and never tried this and am willing to give it a try since I am involved athletically in so many sports maybe it would help me get leaner.

    There is nothing wrong with my current diet there never was all my macro-nutrients are perfect I get them tested by blood every month.

    Remember I am not trying to get big or gain weight so im not going eat big to get big like you guys that body build.

    I like to stay lean.

    Give me some examples of your small meals and the portions in them.

    I am asking for examples thats all im asking to get a better understanding of how much food is needed at each one of teh 6 meals.

    you dont need 6 meals a day. I get anywhere from 3-5 depending on how i feel. Hitting your macros is the most important part. Second is getting adaquate post workout and before bed nutrition.

    Yeah come to think of it now I exercise so much I need three meals a day I need all that energy at once. Im talking about cycleing for 3 to 4 hours and training in a boxing gym for 3 hours everyday so. I just listen to my body. Its works for me. So screw six meals a day.
