    I typically eat around 1100-1200 calories. Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner I try to make all 300 calories or less. That leaves me with 200-300 calories for snacks and I'd usually have fruit which is low calorie anyway (an apple, watermelon, maybe some ryvita with flora spread). I'm very simple and basic with my food & calories. However, sometimes I allow my dinners to be as high as 400 calories with lower cal breakfast & lunch options. I'd rather have higher calorie dinners and dinner is my favourite meal.

    The most I eat in one sitting is for lunch, around 550 kcal on a regular day. It makes sense for me as I find I sleep better without a heavy meal in the evening and that also sets me up for eating on my regular schedule the next day.

    I tend to have a green smoothie (200sih kcal) for an afternoon snack, around 300-400 kcal for dinner and then an evening snack at around 200 kcal (peanut butter + apple, chia pudding, banana snicker bite).

    I eat two meals a day (plus a snack between) - dinner is always the biggest meal at between 700 and 900 calories.

    I save between 500-700 calories for dinner usually (out of a total of 1300). I'm lazy with dinner and tend to let my roomie cook so I don't often count the calories. (I'm just careful with the portion)

    Dinner/Dessert. I am a daily dessert eater and generally I eat most of my calories after 4PM through dinner and dessert. Usually around 800-900 calories total for the two.

    Dinner and snacks. I like to snack in the evenings, so I save calories for that purpose.

    My largest is usually breakfast, since I work dayshifts and I need the extra energy to get through.

    I feel like I'm the opposite of a lot of people here - but I love a big breakfast! I tend to skip lunch or just have a really light snack, and then a moderate dinner and a small snack after.

    Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day if I eat big enough not hungry for lunch, but this bad because then I eat too much for dinner or after snacks

    My meals tend to be quite balanced but whenever one of them is larger, it's definitely breakfast.

    Lunch for me. I'd be OK skipping breakfast and have no problem sleeping without eating, but lunch fuels the day for me.

    Dinner - that's when I get more creative in my cooking and allocate most of my calories.

    it differs day by day, but it's mostly lunch.
