Average calories for each meal...?

I know, I am doing it wrong. But this is the way it usually works out for me ...

Bfast - 300
Lunch - 400-600
Dinner - 300-600

Snacks - 100 (2-3x daily)

I love breakfast.... Most of my calories go here

Lunch is always something light, Ie Ryvitas/Rice Cakes with eggs/toms/cucumbers/carrots

Fruit/Yoghurts/Slices of ham/Salads/Soups

Dinner is whatever is on the menu.......I always try to work out min of 4 times a week. I reckon I net about 1600/1700 cals a day

I know it flies in the face of all advice, but I eat most of my calories in the evening.

I usually don't eat anything at all until I've been up a good 4 or 5 hours, and then I have breakfast at my desk at around 9.30 - 10am.

Breakfast is often as low as 140 calories (I love Weetabix Crunchy Bran served dry in a bowl - 40g fills me up all morning), but sometimes I do have a skinny latte at the same time, which bumps it closer to 250 calories.

Lunch is usually a salad, and often comes in well below 200 calories.

So that leaves me by far my biggest calorie allowance for the evening - often I have 800 or 900 calories left by the time we sit down to dinner at about 6.30pm, then straight after dinner I eat my snack of an All Bran breakfast biscuit and a piece or two of fruit. I call it a snack but it's effectively dessert, as I eat it straight after dinner. I very, very rarely eat anything after 7.30pm, though I drink coffee with skimmed milk right up to bedtime.

The reason I do this is that for breakfast and lunch I'm at work 5 days out of 7, so I don't really care how repetitive, uninspiring and low-calorie the meals are. It's purely functional eating, to fuel my body until I get home (though I do try to make my salads as colourful, multi-textured, nutritious and flavoursome as possible).

Dinner, on the other hand, is a sociable meal, where hubby and I sit down together to a meal that he's lovingly prepared whilst I've been at work. I like to save my calories for enjoying that meal without having to make too many tweaks or amendments to it - sometimes I'll go without butter on my bread, or have my hubby's homemade lamb ragu in a grilled pepper rather than with a plate of pasta, but most of the time I eat the same food at dinner as my hubby (and my portion size is often the same too!).

I know that flies in the face of recognised wisdom about the importance of breakfast etc, but it seems to be working for me...I've lost almost 75lbs in the past 45 weeks!

I like to pre-log breakfast and lunch and 1 snack so I see what I have left for after work. Average breakdown: 300 breakfast 200-300 morning snack 300-400 for lunch this leaves me personally with 950-750 left for the day. I like to eat more in the evening too!
