A member asked:

Does it matter if i eat a doughnut all at once or throughout the day?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends on ur goal: Depends on what i r trying to achieve. If you don't want to gain weight, then what really matters is the overall total amount of calories and fat u eat in a day compared to what u burn. If u don't want your blood sugars to rise too much at once, spreading it out helps.
