Usually 3 square meals with about 2 snacks thrown in.

Breakfast at about 6am

Snack or something about 9-10

Lunch at my desk starting at about 11 - usually start with leftovers, then have a sandwich about 2pm (technically count as 2 lunches?)

Usually a little bite of something when I get home around 4 - brownie, cookie, specialty bread, etc.

Dinner anywhere from 7-9pm.



When I worked on an egg farm a couple years ago, I'd have 5 pretty solid meals a day:

Breakfast (usually 2 bowls of cereal) at 4:30

Sandwich and a little something at break at 9

Lunch at noon (leftovers and something extra)

3 eggs of some sort (french toast, breakfast burrito, fried, etc) when I got home around 4-5 (we got 2doz free eggs a week, which meant I really had to plow through them quickly)

Big dinner at 8ish



And I'm only 175lbs but 6'9"

2. Protein Shake + Granola Bar - 10:00

3. Lunch - 12:00

4. Fruit or Granola Bar - 3:00

5. Dinner - 5:30ish

Thats during the work week. The weekends usually go to hell and I dont have a set schedule or eat as healthy...
