When do you eat?

I've been eating breakfast, lunch, and dinner lately, with a bedtime snack if needed. I'm hungry at those times. If I'm not truly hungry, I have no business eating.

In the morning I eat when I'm hungry, then I go by the clock. I'm a boredom eater and prefer to have a schedule.

i try to eat every 2/3 hrs after my fasting period has ended until i've reached my 5 meals for the day

I eat not because of designated time to eat. I eat on a pattern that I find most effective for me. All around. Meeting all my family and friend obligations, and my activities.

Here's my eating schedule:

9:00 - a smoothie (150 to 220 cal) or a breakfast bar (110 to 220)
noon - small orange
2:00 - two to three gummi candies (Just to satisfy my sweet tooth, lol.)
3:30 - breakfast or health bar, one Girl Scout cookie (gotta support the Scouts, am I right?)
7:00 to 10:00, depending how long it takes to make dinner - high calorie dinner

I found that when I tried to make all my meals equal sizes, I overate on dinner anyway. So now I just eat light on all meals except for dinner.

I do not eat whenever I'm hungry. If I'm hungry during the middle part of the day, I just ignore it.

My hunger button is broken so I kinda go by the clock.

It seems I'm truly hungry around 10:30-11am.

After that I don't know if I understand true hunger so I go by the clock and eat early dinner. I stop eating for the day around 5pm. Otherwise it seems true hunger and boredom eating get mixed up.

I try to eat the three square meals a day and have snacks in between, but, I too, am an emotional/bored eater ... so on the days I'm extra sleepy or stressing about something, my calorie intake rises ... smh

Breakfast when I wake up
5ish hours later I eat lunch
5ish hours later I eat dinner
Throw a couple of proteinshakes in there if I need the protein

I never eat by the clock, I eat by my stomach. I'm very rarely hungry until hours after I wake up and have never been one to like 'snacking' constantly. I prefer two larger afternoon and evening meals over constant tiny mouthfuls. However, I know others that would lose their mind eating like that. The trick is finding what keeps you satiated.

I don't normally eat breakfast. I get up at 3:45 am, and I have a decaf coffee and milk before I go out the door at 5. By lunch time, 11:00 to 11:30, I am most definitely hungry, and that is also when it is convenient for me to eat lunch. I'm usually home by 5:30 or 6, and the first order of business is getting a dinner on the table for me and the family. By that time, I am usually very hungry. In fact, I sometimes have to quickly heat up and eat something I've pre-packed for myself before I can even mentally focus on preparing a meal for everyone else. And, if I have saved enough calories for it, I will usually have a dessert that I have pre-made for such occasions.

I usually eat breakfast, lunch and dinner with 3 - 5 hours in between meals depending on the size. No snacking. The timing varies.

Sometimes I'm hungry at 9am, other times it's closer to noon. It depends on when I stopped eating the day prior and my workout the evening before.

So in that sense I eat just when I start to get hungry. I just make sure I close the kitchen after dinner.

I do work and workout at home so I have a lot of freedom when it comes to when and what I eat.

During the work week I tend to follow a schedule -
Mondays I fast
Tuesday - small breakfast (about 250 cal), lunch around 2 pm, dinner somewhere between 8-9 pm.
Wed, Thu, Fri - skip breakfast, lunch around 2 pm, dinner somewhere between 8-9 pm.

Sat and Sun are wide open. I eat when I want and around activities. I eat a lot more on weekends than during the week.

Edit: These are not 'rules'. It's just the way I usually eat. Sometimes I do something different.

Mines pretty scheduled due to the rest of my day

Breakfast is about 7:30
Pre-workout snack at 10:30
lunch about 1:30
Dinner is when I, or someone in the family gets hungry.. so anywhere from about 6-7:30

Weekends are more flexible, but my body is so use to the schedule that hunger kicks in about the usual times anyway.

I eat before work, I eat when I'm scheduled lunch, I eat when I get home. May snack in between. Weekends are when I'm hungry, I generally try and hold off breakfast a bit for a decent size brunch.

I eat breakfast (around 8:30 AM), lunch (around 1 PM), dinner (around 8:30 PM), and a couple of snacks (usually in the afternoon)...I'm generally hungry when those meal times roll around...and besides that, skipping or missing them on any kind of regular basis would not be a good thing for me.
