I've been altering my diet over the past week, and have a couple of comments.

First, 5 meals is too few for me, but perhaps that's a function of my schedule, which usually starts with waking up at 6 am. I like a breakfast, mid-morning snack, lunch, mid-day meal, dinner and a late night meal. And sometimes I notice a 7th meal sneaking in. (Note, by "meal" or "snack" I'm referring to as little as one piece of fruit, though the traditional meals do tend to be more.)

Second, I've tried a protein shake (as well as the protein bars), but I'm not thrilled with them and I'm surprised so many rely on them. Unless real food is inconvenient, I don't see the appeal. But maybe I'm not trying the right ones.

Don't you guys find the protein shakes boring, day after day? And don't you need the satisfaction of chewing?
