Five meals a day instead of two?

Eating five meals a day is good because it keeps you from getting ravenously hungry. It's when you're starving that you'll eat too much, but if you're just hungry, you'll eat until you aren't anymore. You don't have to deprive yourself of chocolate, but it can't be a major part of your diet. Add some protein to your 6 pm meal and some grains throughout the day, and don't be afraid to have a piece of fruit or a few cookies with milk in the evening.
