I think most of us follow a schedule when it comes to eating. It could be breakfast, lunch and supper. For others, it could be breakfast, break, lunch, snack time and dinner.
At my place, most people eat three times a day. That is grouped as breakfast, lunch and supper. As for me, I like eating when I feel hungry and most of the time I never feel like eating.

I eat when I'm hungry and to survive. I'm not a big fan of food, eat because I have to.

I usually have 2 meals , lunch and supper and eat even if I'm not too hungry as I don't want to eat too late and go to bed with undigested food in my stomach.

@1hopefulman It is good you don't want to eat late because digestion might disturb your sleep. I also don't like to eat late :)

@mildredtabitha Some days I do. I don't eat a lot so they are small meals. Sometimes instead of eating a meal I will just have a healthy snack.

@Lizirazo I am used to eating small portions. And sometimes grab a banana or a cake. I spend most of the time tasting food instead of eating to feel full. hehe
That is what I meant :)

@mildredtabitha It depends lol. One thing I will say, I hate feeling like I overate or like I will explode. I prefer to still have a small amount of hunger left in me.

I'm not a breakfast person and sometimes I'm too lazy to cook but I mostly eat when I'm hungry at my place but when visiting the parents or with company I'll eat when they do.
