Mealtimes at HVH

Mealtimes at HVH

At our last Resident Council meeting, it was discussed and primarily opted for, flipping our bigger meal from noon to supper time. With providing a very large breakfast, followed by the large main meal for lunch, many residents are too full to consume that meal (which contains most of their daily calories and protein). Due to this, many are quite hungry by supper time when the lighter meal is served.

With residents’ input, we are looking at moving our largest meal to supper time.



Benefits of this include:

Improved satiety throughout the evening

Less hypoglycemia with morning blood sugars

Increased likelihood of consuming the large, main meal

The ability to sleep in & have a late breakfast, without

compromising intake of the larger meal

Stay tuned for results of our residents’ votes!
