how many times do you eat?

[universalpak]

Is it matter how many time do I eat? For example I eat 3 times a day for 3000kcal or should I better eat 5 times a day for 3000kcal?

I eat 4250 cals/day so as many times as i takes to eat that depending on my work day and convienence.

meal timing is irrelevent to body composition

so eat whenever convienent

[AdamWW]

frequency is irrelevant...

I eat 4000 per day in 3-4 meals.

omnomnomnomnomn

[n0useforaname]

Typically anywhere from 1-3 a day.... depends if I want pancakes, waffles, donuts, etc.. in the morn.

[MITCHAPAL00ZA]

3300 cals with 3-6 meals...depends on the day really. have done as few as 2 meals

[iviicrociot]

I generally eat around 6 times a day but it's not because I believe there's a difference in frequency... just because it's easier for me to cut and not be so fatigued if I'm eating something every couple of hours, even if it's small. Plus, after cutting for so long if I eat a large meal it makes me feel sick.

[JHarden]

3700 calories in 3-4 meals. I usually eat a large breakfast and dinner and only take a sandwich or something to get me through the day at school.

[justin76]

4300-4400 calories in 2-3 meals.

How long of a gap between meals does there have to be before it's considered a separate time? Like if I eat a meal and then something else 10 mins later, is that 2 times? Or do you group them altogether? Where do you draw the line? Also, if I start eating just before midnight but finish after midnight, does the meal count as half a meal for today an half a meal for tomorrow? Or 1 meal for each day? Or just count it all in the first day or the second day? And how do you allow for daylight savings? Cos your body doesn't know the time has changed. Sometimes I spend so much time trying to answer these questions that I don't have time to eat at all and I miss going to the gym.

i'm told it doesn't matter but i feel a hell of a lot better when i eat like 5 or 6 meals a day rather than 2 or 3

[bobdickgus]

2 meals, lunch and dinner 3200ish kcal, IF 16/8 so happy since I stopped eating breakfast.

[Kevin71]

4-5 times at about 2200 calories.

I eat more often just to keep me full and sane. I can eat 4 cups of broccoli and be hungry in an hour. It's awful on this lifelong cut. :/
