I was just looking at my calorie intake for today. Less than 1000 calories, but I am full and could not eat another Spoonful.
i eat breakfast about 5 am, the MINUTE I get out of bed. Then about 8am I head to the gym to swim for 2 hour. By the time I get home I am starving and eat a light lunch. Sometimes I have a small snack around 1-2 and finally an early dinner about 5. I don’t snack at night unless i have planned a dessert of some sort which would be on Friday or more likely Saturday night. So basically “fasting” from 5 pm till 5 am in the morning. I will sometimes wake up and just have to eat something or I won’t return to sleep. That middle of the night snack would typically be 30 grams of granola that I make myself and about a 1/4 cup of milk . Oatmeal, almonds, pecans, walnuts, raisins, Finely chopped dates, unsweetened toasted coconut, cinnamon, a little brown sugar and a couple tablespoons of real maple syrup.and of course thick rolled oats. I don’t measure it in “cups”— you would never get it right. I mostly use the metric grams. When I worked we often did not get to eat for long stretches and if you were in on a call case, you might not eat for 12 hours so I made this granola recipe for all of us to snack on. Nutritious, calorie dense, both readily available carbs, fiber and protein to sustain. Worked well for us all. I still carry it when I hike.
