    It’s different for each person. There is no best.

    Some want a big breakfast, some want just coffee.

    Some have a few large meals, some have many tiny means throughout the day.

    I get by with a small breakfast and lunch and save most of my calories for dinner.

    When you eat is largely irrelevant to weight loss beyond finding an eating pattern that most suits you and makes it as easy as possible to stick to your calorie goal.

    Some eat 3 regular meals some 5 or 6 smaller ones, some like a big breakfast then graze all day, some have one big meal at night. I personally tend to have a light breakfast and skip lunch entirely as I'm usually not hungry during the day. This leaves me plenty of calories left over for a bigger meal at night when I naturally find myself hungry.

    Best thing is to take note of how you feel through out the day and tailor your meals accordingly. Do a bit of experimentation and find what works best for you. The best way is your best way.
