    Medium sized meal mid-day, larger meal in the evening, then snack before bed.

    Dinner. If my evening meal is too small I get hungry when I'm falling asleep.

    Typically, breakfast. I enjoy breakfast foods the most and having a large breakfast makes me less hungry throughout the day. I usually eat something very small for lunch and then a larger dinner.

    Breakfast for sure. Like @DougBobrow mentioned, starches and fruit and protein. I typicaly stop eating by 7-8pm at night and workout in the morning before I eat breakfast. So for me, breakfast is the biggest meal.

    Dinner for me. Can eat fairly light up to that point but when it's dinner time I'm ready to eat heavy.

    What does eating heavy usually mean for you?

    Most of my calories are used at that mealtime.

    Obviously, it's really going to be highly variable. Some do well with breakfast, some don't. Some prefer a big supper, some don't. Some snack, some don't.

    Divide your day how you need to. :)

    Varies by day, as does the number of meals/snacks I eat, and what time of day I eat them. I try to spread protein across all the meals I eat, and to make sure I get some fats when eating veggies (on speculation, in case it helps with utilizing the fat-soluble ones). My only timing rule is to wait after taking thyroid meds, before eating, as per directions. (Eating right before bed doesn't give me reflux or interfere with my sleep, as it does for some people).

    For anyone who does not have a relevant health condition, and who isn't an elite athlete trying to squeeze out that extra 0.5% of performance, timing of eating is mostly a matter of personal preferences and needs, as far as I've been able to determine.
