Default total calories

wrote:

I will have a light breakfast or a banana in the morning, lets say
approx 400 cal. For lunch I will grab a yogurt with some fruit, lets
say 200 calories. That means I could eat 1200 calories at night and
still loose weight right? I don't usually eat much in the morning, and
could deprive myself for lunch if I can enjoy my favorite meals at
night and pig out. This can't be right???


It's stupid to "deprive" yourself so that you can pretend to gorge
later, and if you do it all the time I think it's a good way to set
yourself up for failure down the road, but technically? No, it doesn't
matter very much how many calories you consume at each meal as long as
you don't consume more than you burn.
