    Different strokes for different folks...you just have to find what works for you.

    I eat:
    Breakfast (around 300 cals)
    Snack (around 150)
    Lunch (around 400)
    Snack (around 150)
    Dinner (around 400)

    To lose a pound per week my intake should be at 1220, but I exercise 6 days a week so I almost always eat back my exercise calories. If I have a day I don't exercise and I'm a little bit over, then no biggie. That's just how I do it.

    Breakfast - 100 cals
    Snack - 100 cals
    Dinner - 300 - 400 cals
    Snack - 100 - 200 cals
    Tea - 400 - 600 cals

    Making for a total of 1200 - 1400 a day depending on how many calories I burn, I eat back 'some' exercise calories but not all.
