There is a lot of conflicting information on the internet these days - hence the reason I rarely blog. It's such a challenge to find the truth. There's some good in this, however. The truth is simple: you can't read the truth on a blog, in a book or even hear it from your friend. Only you can find it out to be true for you and the only way to do that is try it out for yourself!
That being said... I am a believer in small meals. I've seen the websites saying that this is a myth, but I've found it to be true for me and this is the way I've eaten for a number of years and I continue keep my weight in balance. Furthermore, big meals jam up your digestive system - think of it like rush hour traffic. When you eat smaller, frequent meals in conjunction with yoga or other beneficial exercise, you are better able to keep your metabolism working in harmony with the other systems in your body.
