Some do it by eating many small meals
I, personally, would recommend against doing this, especially if those meals contain carbohydrate or protein. The problem (and I realize Evgeny probably knows this) is that eating many small meals keeps insulin levels consistently high (both carbs and protein cause insulin to be secreted). While we don't have the direct evidence of it yet, most biological system, when exposed to a cellular input constantly, down-regulate the receptors for that input. Down-regulating insulin receptors is the definition of insulin resistance and insulin resistance is the first step towards diabetes.
