    8:30/9:00 - Breakfast
    12:30/1:00 - Lunch
    3:30 - Snack (this is when i start to crave chocolate)
    6:00 - Dinner
    Like cjacobs81 this is at work during the week on the weekends it is totally different. All depends where we are and what is going on.

    I eat breakfast around 8:30 and lunch around 12:30. Then I eat around 2500 calories between 7pm and 11pm. I may sprinkle a snack in there somewhere if I am going on a long ride after work. Since meal timing is irrelevant for the most part, I don't worry about it too much.

    I eat around my work schedule, so it entirely depends. I was working 6-12 most days, but now my schedule is going to be even more random. My daughter wakes me up at 7-730 so we'll usually eat breakfast by 8, and then we aim for lunch around noon, and dinner around 5:30 if at all possible with a snack usually after I exercise at around 230 or so.

    7:00am breakfast. At work (teaching)by 6:30am.
    11:00am lunch
    3:00pm workout 1hour
    5:00pm 2nd job, tutoring children. No time to eat.
    7:30pm--home, walk dogs 3-5 miles.
    8:30-45--feed dogs
    9:00pm--finally feed myself. I know I should probably have a snack in between. I havnt overeaten even with the huge gap in meals, but I do feel hungry. Being busy just means I ignore/forget it.

    There's never a set time. My job schedule fluctuates during the week, and even when I can grab breakfast on the weekends depends on when my coworkers decide to take their breaks/when I can get my tasks done.

    Breakfast: about 7 on weekdays, usually later on the weekends (sometimes brunch).

    Lunch: around noon, sometimes later.

    Dinner: 9 pm on weekdays, usually earlier on the weekend.

    Snacks: not really, but I often have dessert immediately after dinner.

    9:30-10:00 (Breakfast)
    2:00-3:30 (Lunch)
    6:30-7:30 (Dinner)
    10:30 (Snack)
    My meals are spaced out 4-5 hours. My snack is where I make up for unused calories so far that day. I usually exercise before lunch and occasionally before dinner.

    This summer I have a schedule so I eat breakfast at around 7:00 am, Lunch at 11:30, and dinner between 5:30 and 6:00. I normally have a snack sometime around 10:30, like a banana or an egg.

    During the school year (on week days) I will eat breakfast before class (last year that was around 8:00, this year no 8:30s so probably closer to 9:00), Lunch at around 12:30, and dinner at 5:30. If I had straight 8:30-12:20 classes, I would have a snack at around 9:50 or 11:00, which would be in between class periods. Sometimes if I had worked out, or ate too much at lunch and wasn't hungry for normal dinner with my friends, I would have "second dinner" at around 9:00, but then again I also gained ten pounds last school year so probably not something to emulate lol. Not to mention weekends where all bets were off and I could eat any where from once to four times a day.

    Some mornings I'm hungry - and I'll eat breakfast when I get to work - other days I'll skip it and eat at lunchtime.

    Lunch depends on when it fits in at work.

    Dinner is usually late. My evenings are busy - so I often don't eat until near midnight. The last one used to bother me - and I put it down to part of the reason I got so big. But since doing this I've still eaten at this time and lost. I now just eat however many calories I have left for the day and stop. I know now that it wasn't the time I eat - it was how much I are at this time (it was often a takeaway meal as it was late and I couldn't be arsed to cook! It still is sometimes - but now it's only if I have the calories left).
