having snacks or merienda....

I do take meriendas, I eat whenever I feel I'm hungry. I eat depending of what I feel I crave for, like hamburger, bread and fried egg or those which can be bought on CARINDERIA's (food stalls) around the neighborhood. I also can be good at chips, instant noodles and juice for a drink..

I feel instead of eating 3 big meals one should eat 5 small meals as it it good for digestion as food is absorbed better and it also increases oue metabolism which helps in weight loss. And you won't feel craving for food that much. And if you have to snack then eating fruits it is healthy and provide nutrition, don't go for junk food they add empty calories.

Yes, just like you...I can't also take it without having my snacks in the afternoon. I'm just really a snack lover although I have my full meal during dinner time lols.

I eat three meals and two snacks in a day. During merienda, I eat dried or fresh fruits, my favorite sandwich/hamburger, nuts, iced tea and smoothies. I need to eat merienda to get me through the time before dinner comes.:) I still need the nourishment of food to get me going with my work and my run in the afternoon.

same here... i always eat merienda usually its bread, burgers or sweets. I'd be hungry if i don't eat snacks in the mid-afternoon.

Unfortunately, I have to have my junk food snacks, lots of times in the afternoon and at night, but sometimes just at night. If I try to eat a larger meal or an extra meal or have a healthy snack such as fruit, that might work for a short time but then I start having the junk food snack in addition to the extra meal or larger meal or the fruit.

when i was younger i have always room for merienda. i eat most of the day not worrying that i will grow fat for i am really slim. i like eating anything at any time. but here in the philippines there are a lot of popular merienda and they are all yummmmmmmmy. but now that ive matured i a=still eat merienda but i skip dinner. i still love eating merienda lol
