What is your largest meal typically?

rnnzo

I tend to want more calories for the evening but I eat a pretty calorie dense breakfast relative to my daily goals. What tends to be your heaviest or biggest meal? How many calories do you usually eat for breakfast?

I save about half of my daily calories for the evening. Breakfast is usually really low like about 200 - usually a protein shake with cold brewed coffee in it.

I love eating at night. Snack. Snack. Snack.

Dinner - 2400 cals give or take

Largest meal is always dinner. Always. Usually in the range of 1200-1600 calories.

manto2112

Usually lunch around 400 cals
It does not sounds much but I only eat 1200 cals a day.

amusedmonkey

Usually lunch at around 600-1200 calories, but sometimes it's breakfast when I wake up hungry (doesn't happen often). My breakfast calories range from 5 calories to 800. I only have heavy dinners when I go out or when there is a planned dinner like for Christmas Eve, birthdays, evening grills, someone coming home late and bringing food..etc. Most other family gatherings are centered around lunch.

My md told me to eat bfast like a queen; lunch like a princess; and dinner like a pauper. This is opposite of how I've eaten all my life. Any meal suggestions for a 1200/day diet plan. Also interested in six small meals.

I start out real light in the morning. Lunch is a little heavier, then dinner is my biggest with a snack planned in between dinner and bed. I heard the 'eat breakfast like a queen' thing before, but I can't eat a lot in the morning. Just eating something for breakfast is a new thing for me.

I keep myself starving all day so that I can eat big dinner and get nice sleep. Eat around 700 calories for dinner out of total budget of 2000

Lunch.

lemurcat12

Lunch -- I eat dinner late and am usually fine with making it light if I need to (and often want to). Lunch usually is at noon-ish and I don't eat again until after 9. Sometimes I break it up into a meal and a snack, though.

The exception is that I often go out to eat (or have some other festive dinner, like the picnic planned for this evening if the weather cooperates) on the weekend so have an earlier larger dinner which would be my largest meal (lunch is then lighter).

Dinner/Snacks

Need2Exerc1se

Usually skip breakfast.

Dinner (night) is always the largest meal. It's the only thing I really consider a 'meal'.

Lounmoun

Lunch and dinner are when I eat most of my calories. Usually dinner is slightly larger.

JShailen

Breakfast and/or dinner. I prefer a large breakfast but when socializing is involved I often have to save calories for dinner. I've cut right down on snacking but sometimes allocate calories for wine with dinner.

sammyliftsandeats

Hmm...I guess they get spread out pretty evenly most of the time (+/- 100 calories), but if I have extra calories to eat up from activity, then I guess dinner gets bigger. But not usually volume wise, just more calorie dense.

janejellyroll

Dinner is almost always my heaviest meal of the day -- usually have 700 to 1,200 calories for dinner.

SuzySunshine99

I eat small breakfasts and lunches (about 250 calories for each) so that I can have 1,000 left for dinner/dessert.
It really depends on your lifestyle and what works for you and helps you stick to your calorie goals.

elkhunter7x6

Supper,its usally 800-1000 of my 2050 calories

powered85

between lunch and dinner. Usually run at lunch so end up eating a lot in the afternoon after my recovery meal/snack. Working on balancing it better though....

Dayle1984

Just checked and I am usually around 300 breakfast, 400 lunch, 400 dinner, and the rest is snacks... so pretty balanced!

ROBOTFOOD

Post lift. 2,800 cal yesterday. 6k for the day. (Yolo Powerlifting bulk/recomp)

mbeuchert24

During my son's football season Lunch is typically my biggest meal. I eat a smallish breakfast, and then by the time I get home from football practice I'm too tired to cook a full meal, so I'll have a salad or a sandwich or leftovers if available. Otherwise dinner is my bigger meal.

biggsterjackster

Lunch with about 600 cals is the biggest. Breakfast is 2nd with 300, Dinner the smallest with 200. i love to go to bed a little hungry.

cwolfman13

Depends on the day...it's very much variable and also irrelevant.
