I should correct myself...I eat one meal a day. (If I can help it)
Bro just avoid starches and refined sugars. If you go Paleo you can eat a lot of nutrient rich foods but you won't need to once your Leptin and the Leptin receptors are functioning as designed. (Leptin is a hormone that signals your brain that you are full)
The starches and sugars bombard the leptim recpetors with false signals, overloading them and causing them to recede and beecome non-functioning, so we feel hungry all the time and jam shitty startchy sugary foods into our pie holes non-stop.
Once you cut that shit out of your diet for a couple weeks your leptin functions will return to normal and you (A) will not crave junky shit food and (B) feel full when you eat enough nutrients to satiate your body, which is a LOT LESS FOOD than the bullshit we "Modern day" people are used to eating.

Two things:
1) That is a lot of eating. I don't know if I could do that personally.
2) Can you give me your recipe for your kale shake please? All the ones I have tried taste like vomit.
As for the original question, I eat all day long, munching. This morning I had eggs and ham. I will eat sardines for lunch with a large salad. Probably around 3 or so I will eat another can of sardenes. Tonight at about 6 I will eat a large chunk of some sort of animal meat, with steamed veggies and a protein shake. Then Jiu Jitsu. Then recovery drink (Paleo solution book provides recipies) and through the evening I will munch on raisins because they immediately help to rebuild/repair damaged muscle tissues and they are alkaline, which will counteract the acidity of the other food I have eaten throughout the day and the net acid effects of exercise, plus they are high in glycemic load.
I'm not trying to sound super-educated on this, I am just reading a lot about it and if I type it it will help me remember better.
EDIT to add - Also I should add that I always take a protein shake first thing in the morning with a Vita-Freak pack. I eat unlimited fruit all day and evening as well.
