Meal Names and Tracking

Hey guys, Just thought it would be fun to see how you setup your meal names and what you track.
I set up 3 meals and 2 snacks and tag them as such: Breakfast, snack, lunch, snack, dinner. I recently updated and took out the last snack to try and not eat before bed. Anyway, I always had times next to them so I could see if I ate outside of when I had planned but recently broke the meals into what I felt was good calories for me to try and lose so now I show calories per meal also. Sometimes I just can't eat in the times listed, mainly dinner, but it's a guide. Here is an example:
Breakfast (7:30-8:30)(350). That means I try to eat between 7:30 and 8:30 and a max of 350 Calories.
Do you have a way you setup that helps you when entering your food?

Oh, I forgot, I track: Calories, Protein, Carbs, Fat, Fiber and Sugar. I'm trying to make sure I get the recommended daily fiber and also trying to cut down on refined sugar and of course you always want to track the other three.0
