Maybe it was for the study, but I don"t think three big meals are ideal or even necessary.

Isn't that No S, though? Three meals a day, no snacking, in the beginning you probably have some pretty big plates, but that's ok just no vertical stacking? It is in the book.

Reinhard is fine with people having a different specified number,
2 or 4 or some other number is acceptable if this works better.
A meal is limited to one full plate with no vertical stacking,
but there is no limit to how empty that plate can be.

I think wosnes meant most people-women- don't need three BIG meals. Slim cultures that eat three meals usually have only one sizable meal. At least one meal is often quite small, such as a small bread item and coffee for breakfast.

This study confuses me. Were the two groups eating the exact foods and amounts, but one ate their junk-food with the meal and the other ate their junk, not with the meal, but consumed it later as a snack? There are so many variables to this as there are people.
A real useful study would be to use identical twins-one in the 3-meal camp and the other in snacking camp.
I would probably not benefit with 3 Large meals everyday considering my age, short stature and sedentary nature (the turbulent trio).
However, the study promotes the No-S non-snacking rule.

I don't think they were recommending three large meals, but just pointing out that even when eating large meals, people accumulate less abdominal bodyfat eating three meals.

As I understand it they are saying your BMI aka weight goes up either way if you eat fatty/highly caloric food.
So either way you will gain weight. However, if you eat it as a snack rather than as part of the meal your liver will get fatty and you'll have more belly-fat.

Apparently where you carry your fat makes a big difference. No matter how much women are influenced to dislike fat thighs, I don't think they've ever been linked to degenerative disease.

The article was saying a "big meal" to mean a No-S-style traditional meal (as opposed to a 6-meal-a-day-mini-meal.) It doesn't mean gorge yourself on triple-serving massive meals. While "big" can mean different things to different people, I interpret this article as clearly validating No S.wosnes wrote:Maybe it was for the study, but I don"t think three big meals are ideal or even necessary.
What's entertaining to me is reading the comments where the peanut gallery insists that "X diet is the only one that works!!" We have the last laugh, don't we?
