How do you eat?

I usually start eating around 11. I'll have a regular lunch, and then a snack around 3. Dinner is a little more interesting. I usually eat a snack right when I get home from work, and then I'll have 1st dinner around 6. Then, I'll have a snack around 7, then 2nd dinner around 8:30. Usually it's just another portion of 1st dinner.0

I usually have breakfast (before I leave for work, after my morning workout if I workout in the morning, so around 7), then I have lunch roughly around noon, sometimes later, and dinner around 8:30 or 9 (just due to when I tend to get home and have pre-dinner stuff done). I don't like eating more often. On Fridays and the weekend I often eat dinner earlier, and may eat a restaurant dinner on at least one of those days, so I tend to skip breakfast. On the weekend I may have lunch at more of a brunch kind of time (and it might be breakfast type food).0

I am a strict 3 meal and 3 snack person. Breakfast around 8, snack around 10:30, lunch around noon time, snack around 2:30, dinner around 6-7, snack before bed usually around 8-8:30. Even on the weekends my eating schedule is strict but my meals and snacks are super creative and 100% plant based.0

Mine is the other way round. Breakfast at 6, second breakfast around 9:30, lunch, snack 4ish, dinner at 7.1 -

Definitely, some days it's close to their whole meal plan 😁1 -
I am a 2-3 meal a day person with snacks included if I have extra calories. I only eat breakfast if I am hungry in the morning, otherwise I skip and have lunch around 11-12. I then have dinner around 6-7pm, and a snack between then and bedtime if I have calories left over.0

Depends on the day. Usually 3 meals plus two snacks and a treat before bed. On weekends I tend to be busier and often times I will just eat my meals and that's it.0

4 meals a day. My life dictated it for years. Breakfast before school, lunch at lunchtime, good sized after school snack. Light supper late at night. Same for my kids growing up. Then a 12-9 pm work schedule, so breakfast when I woke up, lunch about 11:30, work lunch at 4, light supper after work. Now retired, but lifelong habits carry on. Don’t necessarily think it’s best, even for me, much less for everyone else, but it’s easy.

Like you, OP, I can't eat a big meal then wait 4-5 hours to eat again. I also can't stand to be hungry. I lose control if I'm hungry. I eat 6 times a day and now I can't eat a big meal without feeling sick (which is a downside of this way of eating). I also bring all of my food to work. That, and eating the same thing every day, keeps me on track.
9:30am - Breakfast (Oatmeal)
11:30 - Snack (banana)
12:45 - Lunch (turkey wrap and yogurt)
3:30 - Snack (half a protein bar)
5:30 - Dinner (varies)
7:30 - Snack (usually I hold off dessert and eat it at this time)0 -
Entirely depends on the day...0

I need to feel full, so I have three regular meals and maybe one snack in the late afternoon. Mini meals would leave me feeling hungry all day long.0
