Yes, we are.
Doctors think that not snacking is starving yourself. My sister consulted with both a hepatologist and hematologist. Both of them expressed concern that she was starving herself by only eating twice a day with an afternoon snack if needed. She said that they each had an "Ohhh...yeah!" kind of reaction when she reminded them that protein and fat take longer to digest and without the blood sugar swings that eating carbs will give you, she felt fine all day. Both are prominent doctors at a prestigious medical center.
On the up side, the hepatologist responded very positively to her being grain free.
