One side you say "Skip meal". On the other side you say,"Prefer 6 meals in stead if three."?

try to skip evening meal ,if not feeling hungry .Sometimes we are not hungry and take meals as if it is a ritual .Regarding 6 meals ,it is advised to take small meals 6 times instead of 3 large meals .It will prevent sudden increase of blood sugar
