    Three meals, sometimes one afternoon snack, and a cup of hot chocolate (with lots of real whip cream ;o) in the evening.

    For me... as many as it takes to hit macros/calories. Sometimes that's 2 or 3... sometimes its 6 to 10. Depends on how much I get to eat that day and what I'm eating.

    I tend to eat 3 meals and 3 snacks, which is what works for me.

    I generally eat three meals a day. If I am hungry I have a snack in between. This works for me, but it took a long time to discover what foods kept me satisfied.

    @gia07 No debate. Just curious how others do it. I plateaued in weight loss so I thought maybe when I eat or how much I eat in a single meal makes any difference.

    I don't eat meals. I eat when I'm hungry and don't eat if it's past my goals. Makes it easy to just go with the flow.

    2 or 3 and maybe 1 snack.
    Dinner is my biggest meal and sometimes I want an evening snack. Sometimes I don't feel that I need that snack.
    I eat lunch every day but I may or may not eat breakfast. It depends on how I feel in the morning. I don't usually have snacks between breakfast/lunch or lunch/dinner.

    At the moment I am generally eating one big meal at night, but I might have small snacks at other times if I need them.

    I eat four just because I've never heard that is better (it's always 3 or 6, or even 1, 2, 5 or 7 - never 4) :#

    Your choice. I eat 3 mainly. I also leave room for 2-3 snacks. Sometimes I'm hungry for them, otherwise I just eat them when my blood sugar is low. :)

    Usually 3, no snacks. I enjoy eating filling meals.

    How I divide up my calories completely depends on my hunger levels, if I'm going out to eat or my workout(s) for the day.

    Some times I want a big breakfast and lighter lunch & dinner. Other days (like today) I'm saving up a lot of my calories for a meal out and will have a smaller lunch.

    I use to do 3 meals with snacks in between but ever since I got Invisalign my snacking has reduced to once a day or to none between meals. I still eat 3 meals a day but they are much bigger than before.

    I eat 3 meals a day with a few small snacks in between (fruit, yogurt, etc.), but It all depends what works for you!

    2 meals - either breakfast and dinner or lunch and dinner, depends if I wake up hungry or not. Sometimes I'll also have either a snack during the day or after dinner.

    As long as I finish the day within my given daily calories... that's what matters for weight loss, not how many times a day I eat. ;)
