    Wow! Thanks for all the answers! I was trying to do 5 small meals but you all have made me realize it doesn't have to be a calculated amount! Just what works for me!

    What has worked for me is 2 "meals" and a couple of snacks as I need them. I usually eat between 11AM and 10PM so I guess you can say my meals are lunch and dinner. I simply can not eat early in the morning without feeling ill so I don't.

    I eat two meals a day. Monday-Friday I eat lunch and dinner. I also usually always have at least one snack. On Saturday and Sunday, I eat breakfast and dinner, again I usually have at least one snack. I've been pretty much a 2 meal a day person most of my life. I'm just not a first thing in the morning eater. Even on Saturday and Sunday, I'm up at least 2 hours before I can eat anything. I've been this way since grade school. Breakfast is not my favorite meal of the day, but I do like breakfast food like eggs or gluten free pancakes for dinner, LOL.

    Lunch and dinner. I'm not much of a breakfast person. Yeah yeah I know it's the "most important meal of the day." I seem to be doing fine without it .

    This is why instead of labelling meals and snacks in my diary, I've just broken it up into chunks of time.

    Stop trying to define me, bro!

    It's only that for the cereal companies that came up with the slogan.

    Meal timing and frequency have no impact... so it is 100% personal preference!
