How often do you usually eat a day?

Unknown

6 times a day, sometimes more. 200-300 cals each time usually.

Unknown

Usually three times a day. Breakfast @ 8-9 am, although I'm up around 5.30 (just have water, later coffee). Lunch @ 2pm. Dinner @ 6-6.30pm. Snack if I'm hungry between lunch and dinner. That's it really.

Unknown

Seriously think I over eat reading everyone's comments!
Between 6-7am breakfast
Snack around 9.30-10.30
Lunch between 12-1.30
Snack again 3-4pm
Dinner around 6.30-7.30
Then done for the day

Unknown

Sometimes I only eat once, but mostly I eat twice a day with some small snacking, usually late at night.

Unknown

I'm actually currently experimenting with this to find out what would be ideal for me.
I used to eat 6 more or less equally small (calorie-wise) meals/snacks, but I never really felt satisfied, so lately I've tried mixing it up a bit.
I've tried having a small breakfast, fairly big lunch, small snack, medium dinner, and then snacks for the rest of my calories. The big lunch seems to do good for me as I'll feel full/satisfied for much longer.

Unknown

6am, 11 am, 5pm,
Little snacks or mini meals 200ish calories.

1pm and 8pmish
meals of roughly 400-500 calories

10.30pm
Last snack (hot chocolate and whipped cream and mini Marshmellows. Everytime.)


I'm a constantly slightly peckish person so little and often works better for me. I did try 3 meals a day but I just gravitate towards the fridge or the cookie in starbucks anyway between meals.
What ever works for the person!

Unknown

Whenever I'm hungry

But have 3 meals a day... no set times

Unknown

i used to eat 5x/day but since cuting out grains, i'm just not that hungry anymore so now it's 3x/day. i also eat at set times - 7am, 1130-1145am, 530pm and have since 2012.

Hi,

I was wondering how often you usually eat a day? Do you have set mealtimes or something like an eating rhythm (eg like eating every 3 hours)?

breakfast at 6
snack at 9.30
lunch at 12
after work snack at 3
supper at 6
grazing all night long (all night, all night long... c'mon sing it with me .. all night lo-ong, all night, all night long)

Unknown

Not enough. I try to get three meals in, but I'm really bad at snacks. If I skip a meal, I end up grazing all evening.

Unknown

Once around 1030-1130am then fast until the next day.

Unknown

9:30am - Breakfast
11am - Snack
1pm - Lunch
3:30pm - Snack optional. As I get used to eating better though, I find I don't often manage this one too.
7 or 8pm - Dinner

Spreading the food out over the day works better for me than 3 main meals.

Unknown

I don't have set meal times and eat when I'm hungry. Breakfast anywhere between 6am and 8am, then either lunch or a snack if I'm hungry before 11am, then typically something else around 1-2pm, then dinner around 5-6pm.

So, 4 meals. I rarely do 3, as it's hard for me to go without food for more than 3-4 hours, unless I have a really big meal.

Unknown

Normally 5 times a day:

Breakfast 8-9am
Lunch 12
Small Meal 3.30-4pm
Dinner 7pm
Dessert or Sweet Treat 7-8pm

Unknown

Three times a day. Timing depends on whether it's a workout day or not. Usually nothing before 10AM.

Unknown

It varies depending on my work/school schedule. 3 meals and dessert every day, a snack if I have time/calories, and a banana or Quest bar on weekends to wake me up before work.

Banana/Quest bar 2:45-4:45 in the morning (I work at 5 on Saturdays and 3 on Sundays)
Breakfast 7-10:30
Lunch 10-2 (if I have a shift at work where I don't get a lunch break, I eat majorly early)
If I have a snack that's 3:30-4
Dinner 6-7 (and as late as 9:45 in the fall/winter)
Dessert 8-10

Unknown

Three

10:00 Breakfast ~250 cal
11:30 Lunch ~750 cal
19:00 Dinner ~1000 cal
sometimes I'll grab a snack in the evening after dinner, depending upon if I have any calories left over

Unknown

Breakfast. 8 am
Snack. 11:15 is
Lunch 1 pm
Snack 4 pm
Dinner 7pm

Some days snack at 9 pm

This varies in time because my lunchs and breaks vary. Also 2-3 days a week I get up at 5 am and swim laps, then ride into work with my boyfriend so those days I eat breakfast really earlier.

Unknown

Generally twice a day. Morning coffee - 8am, lunch noonish (trying to aim for 500 cal), dinner 6/6:30 (1000 cal). I love large meals - more satifying to me. Small meals leave me wanting more - I never feel satisfied. I would love to aim for one meal a day around 6, but I get too hungry by noon.

Unknown

Breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
