Question for everyone. I usually do dinner with more calories.

As of right now, I generally eat my smallest meal in the evening. Sometimes it may just be a protein bar or some chocolate. I get in my exercise early in the day, so I have bigger meals to fuel properly. Unless I get super super busy, I'm not one of those people who can do cardio and just fast until later.0

It varies for me depending on how hungry I am2
-
I have a bigger breakfast and lunch generally and a late dinner that's usually lighter0
-
My personal preference has always been to eat the majority of my calories later in the day.1
-
I eat about half my calories for breakfast and lunch and the other half plus my exercise adjustment for dinner and a snack after dinner.0
-
I have a small breakfast on training days but I have a BIG breakfast on other days as it's usually breakfast & lunch together and smaller meals throughout rest of day0
-
I eat most of my calories after 7pm1
-
I try to eat evenly through the day0
-
Usually early. Today late. On my work week days I have a big breakfast which is usually a bit more than I have for dinner followed by a small lunch. On weekends I usually try to have my meals more evenly allocated.0

Middle of the day for me.0

Depends, day to day.
My days usually consist of a small breakfast (smoothie or yogurt), a large lunch, and a small dinner or snack-meal in the evenings. If I feel particularly munchy, I will skip breakfast and have a smaller lunch in the early afternoon. This leaves me with plenty of calories for the rest of the day so I can have a huge dinner.0 -
Oddly enough my meals have been pretty comparable in calories between breakfast/lunch/dinner. But in general my dinner is the biggest- i eat kind of early compared to others (at 5) and don't eat afterwards..0

Late, usually. I do shift work and often work 3-9, and exercise after that. Then, I take a bath, relax, and eat my "main" meal of the day. I've tried eating smaller meals throughout the day before, but what usually happens is either:
A) I forget / don't have time to eat
Somehow end up causing my chronic digestive problems to flare up due to eating food that doesn't agree, forgetting to take my enzymes, or just because my stomach hates me0 -
Late. I generally don't have much control over my dinner, so i allot it as much calories as i can so i don't go to bed hungry.0
-
Middle of the day. I'm not hungry early in the morning or at night.3

Late.0

I tend to eat most calories at night, when I am at home and food is more accessible. That way I have basically saved calories during the day for the dinner and evening snacks I usually have planned.1

Depends on the day...yesterday I went out for a brunch and that was my heaviest meal...we kept dinner light and had soup.0
