What Counts as a "Small Meal" on Trilogiii
The definition is simpler than it sounds — and easy to get right without guessing.
"Small meal" shows up throughout the Trilogiii protocol sheets, and it's one of the phrases people most often want a stricter definition for. The real definition is genuinely simple: a meal that's considerably smaller than what you'd normally eat, built to help create a daily caloric deficit alongside your shakes and capsules.
In practice, that means lean protein paired with low-carb vegetables. Chicken, beef, fish, eggs, or tofu, alongside vegetables rather than starches. Use spices and herbs to add flavor instead of sugary sauces or heavy dressings, which can undercut the calorie and sugar discipline the small meal is meant to support.
The exact size will vary by person, and that's fine — it's meant to be calibrated to your hunger level, which typically decreases over the first couple of weeks as your body adjusts. There's no single gram count or plate-size rule to memorize. If it's noticeably smaller than your normal portion and built around lean protein and vegetables, you're doing it right.
This is one of the more flexible parts of the protocol on purpose — the structure is in the shakes and capsules; the small meals just need to stay in the same lane.
