I have both the CAD book and the CALP.. The CALP book does allow snacking, but they don't really say how many times you can snack. They sort of say, it is best if you try not to snack, but if you must make sure that you include both LC veggies and protein. However, they did say when you first start the diet if you are hungry to go ahead and have some protein with LC veggies. They said they would rather see you do that then to eat carbs. Do this only if you feel that you might blow it when you first start out. They do have a time rule for snacking too. Once you eat, you are not suppose to eat anything again for at least 90 minutes.

My personal opinion is once you start CAD/CALP after you have been on it for 3-4 days, you will find that you don't really have the urge to snack. Your body sort of gets into balance and you are not hungry. At least this is what happens to me and I think to most of us doing CAD.

Good Luck. This is a wonderful plan to follow.
