Big or small, roughly how many meals do you eat each day? I ask this question because lately my appetite has rocketed and I want to see how weird my eating habits are

Depends really, but I figure it's between 4 and 5 meals a day, with two big ones. This Dane needs fuel.

3, not counting snacks when I get home from work or school.
Sometimes 2 on the weekend if when I get up late.

2-3 medium sized meals, with a couple of snacks here and there (sometimes too many, i'd say Embarrassed)

a big protein shake w/ banana
a solid dinner
a big protein shake w/ banana

My relationship with food has changed a bit over the years--  I used to skip brek and go all day on coffee then have a big supper, but then I started trying to build some muscle and I had to increase my protein and carbs by at least 3x.   Now I have to consume at least 140 grams of protein per day or I don't feel well.

I try to do 3 per day although sometimes when I am working it becomes 2. Sometimes I am too tired after work to even bother but I am trying to make a ritual of it so that I can meditate through the day's events. I always start the day with an omelet of some kind and lunch is usually a salad. Dinner is whatever I can dream up - and speaking of which, I am starting to get hungry!

Three fairly modestly sized meals a day. I used to eat like a race horse but these days I'll put on weight very quickly, partly because of my age and opartly having to cut down on my exercise due to tennis elbow and gout - again because of age.

I suddenly got very old and decrepit within the space of about three months. At least it feels that way..

Yoga is the answer. Or anything resembling those same velvety exercise moves. Trust me on this. That's why you'll never see Mr Miyagi with a back belt;-)

Always three meals.
Snacks: that's a different thing.
Officially I plan 4 snack moments per day.
But sometimes it's like in Alice in Wonderland: "Eat me, eat me".
Chocolate and salted peanuts are the most noisy snacks in this respect.

ideally 3 + a snack
- solid breakfast of greek yogurt with some granola
- a pretty big lunch
- a piece of fruit right before workout
- sometimes a protein shake after workout then later a light dinner

Generally two.

But all the snacks and junk I eat in between could probably constitute the third.

For me it's a heavily bean based meal and then a glass of nice Single Malt
