    Since I follow intermittent fasting routine; it's breakfast at 4 PM after my workout, about 1000~1200 calories.

    It depends on the day and the meal - sometimes my biggest meal can have the fewest calories.

    Dinner is my biggest meal. I am never hungry during the day so I usually skip breakfast and lunch and eat a huge dinner and a snack before bed.

    Dinner. I'm famished after working out.

    During the week it's my post workout meal which is normally dinner, I get about 1200 cal. On weekends for some reason it will be my pre workout meal (breakfast), moslty since I do cardio after lifting during the weekend

    Dinner, which is first meal of the day for me, after working out. It's about 1.5 - 2k calories. Then couple of hours later another meal of around 1.5k calories. I usually have just tow meals in a day cos I do intermittent fasting.

    Usually dinner, but whatever I have for evening dessert can be a close second. You don't have to spread calories out evenly throughout the day to lose weight.

    Dinner for me. They do say you should eat breakfast like a king/queen though. I won't do that though as I don't want to use all my calories up on breakfast when I've still got the rest of the day.

    Typically dinner. But sometimes dessert has more calories than dinner.

    Either lunch or dinner, but the latter most of the time.

    I just started intermittent fasting so lunch is definitely by biggest meal of the day. It used to be breakfast.

    If I know I am having lunch out, then that will usually be my most calories. Otherwise, its dinner, because that is when I am the hungriest, the least busy, and seem to want to eat the most.

    I try to get most of my calories in during the day - snacks or lunch. However from old habits, most often than not Dinner ends up being my largest meal.

    I try to make breakfast my biggest meal and then taper off. I have been focusing on eatting breakfast like a queen, lunch like a princess and dinner like a poor person. It helps to keep my energy up during the day and I sleep better at night.

    Dinner.

    I eat a small breakfast, a morning snack, a moderate lunch, and then I eat a large dinner since I'm hungry as there's no time for afternoon snacking.
