I've lost 22 kg since April by eating:
250 calorie breakfast
250-300 calorie lunch
The rest for dinner/dessert.
I eat dessert about half an hour before bed.
You can eat whatever/whenever you like and lose weight so long as you stick to your calorie limit.0 -

My breakfast is generally under 300
Morning munching is about 100
Lunch is about 4-500
After work snackage is around 200
Daytime munching around 200
Dinner is about 500
Evening munching is about 200-400
(I'm in maintenance though so eat around 2200-2300. When losing my munching gets cut down a bit, so about 2-300 cals but that's still enough for chips / ice cream, and I probably have slightly smaller calorie lunches)0 -
I agree. There was recently some discussion and links about eating vs fasting before a workout, and the differences were next to nothing.
The only down side I have to eating really big towards the end of the day personally (and the timing really doesn't matter here IMO), is that I can only eat so much at once, then I have to graze for hours and keep munching until late at night. If I do this after a hard bike ride or something my appetite isn't always there, and sometimes I just get sick of eating and wish I could take a little nutrition pill to get all my protein and nutrition done with.0 -
Not really. Meal timing is like the last 1% anyone should be worried about. Calorie intake is still 99% of the equation despite timing.0 -

Meal timing, carb timing and calorie distribution are irrelevant. As long as you achieve a caloric deficit, you will lose weight.
Thank you helpful. I have made my lunch ríe biggest since í get home so late from work or school. I eat a light fish veggie dinner. Well í Jope for the best. I'm sure I'll figure it out.0 -
The one where I'm hungriest. It's usually early.0

Breakfast is most, lunch is second, and dont really do a traditional meat and potatoes for dinner, instead opting for two smaller snack/meal hybrids. Im never really hungry for dinner so use those last meals to meat the macros.0

Are you hungry later in the evening since you had dinner so early?0
