    Dinner is usually my biggest meal, unless I will be doing yoga. I eat really light on yoga nights because it feels gross to do all that twisting with a full stomach. On those days, it's lunch. Never breakfast. I can't stand to eat a lot in the mornings.

    Unless I'm eating out for lunch, dinner is always my biggest meal, especially in the winter, there's just something nice about sitting down to a huge hot meal when it's dark and cold out

    I try to eat balanced (about 350 calories, four times per day). But inevitably dinner ends up being bigger than I want it to be. So, obviously I'm still working on it. XP

    Dinner or after dinnertime are my largest meals.

    I kind of spread my food out evenly throughout the day most days. My snacks sometimes add up to more than a meal, because I tend to eat small meals with lots of veggies. I'm on an anti inflammatory diet that I am strict with myself on, because I'm using it for health reasons rather than weight loss. But a happy side effect of this food plan is weight loss. So, I'm improving my health and losing weight at the same time.

    Dinner, by far, mainly because I have to cook for my whole family, and doing something separate just for myself would probably be too much work lol. If I breakfasted like a king then in order to keep my calorie count I'd be starved by dinner!

    I try to make it either breakfast or lunch, but lately, it's been dinner because I'm starving at the end of the day.

    I've only done this for 3 days, but my plan is like zsaoosh above....So dinner is my largest meal but still around 300-350 cals. I make sure I have enough protein at brekky, snack and lunch to keep me going the rest of the day... I totally believe that eating more frequent and smaller meals,simply because this helps with keeping your metabolism up and stable. I understand this will help with weight loss. So far, I'm pleasantly surprised that I'm feeling full and cravings aren't there like I thought they'd be. I'm eating healthy and tasty food and still within 1200 cals.

    I typically have 300-400 calories for breakfast, 300 for lunch, and around 800 for dinner. With a hearty dinner to look forward to, I don't feel deprived.

    my breakfast is the highest in cals, at least i try to keep it that way. I might have a big smoothie, but i'll add whole milk and full fat plain yogurt which keeps me full from 7 am till 3 pm.So that is about 370 cals. (i dont snack during that time) Then i have about a 350 cal lunch, and 200-300 cal dinner. I trained myself to eat full fat everything, but to eat only 3 times a day. Does wonders to my body!!=)

    Depends on the day of the week. During the week I hit the gym mon-thurs, so my bigger meals are breakfast and lunch. Ofcourse I have snacks, then I go the gym right after work and when I get home at 8pm, I have something, about 100-200 calories.

    The weekends, since I can choose when I eat, I have breakfast, snack throughout the day (not really lunch) then have a nice dinner with my husband

    Usually dinner, but I rarely do breakfast because I'm never hungry when I just wake up.

    I think typically dinner for me. I get to "fill in" my remaining calories for the day. On an ideal day, I eat a good dinner, and then have a bedtime snack a couple hours later.

    As I work 3rd shift, lunch is usually my biggest meal. However that is about 8pm. My dinner is usually eaten about midnight-2am.

    I try to keep my meals all between 200-300 calories and snacks 100-150. I do tend to push upward to 500 for dinner, so I would say that is probably my biggest meal.

    Breakfast is definitely my smallest....Lunch, I almost never eat but when I do its close to dinner, sometimes a little smaller (depends on whether I am working or not). Dinner is usually my biggest meal but I tend use more calories in snacks...I eat smaller meals and do more snacks throughout the day...

    Breakfast depends on the day of the week and such, all between something small and a small dinner, lunch is between fruit and something small, a large homemade lunch or nothing at all. Dinner is always, without fail, the biggest meal in my day. It's when the family gets together over a hot plate of nutritious and cooked-with-love food.
