Dear Jeff,
My diet is exclusively comprised of medium to low calorie density food (mostly cooked whole grains, tubers, legumes, veggies), and still I like it best to have only two meals a day. Given that I'm fairly athletic, this results in two huge meals. On the one hand, I really enjoy eating so much food at one time, and never having to stop eating without feeling full. On the other hand, I'm slightly worried that I might be overtaxing my digestion. Sometimes, I feel bloated and sluggish after a meal.
Concerning calories, I'm clearly not eating too much, as my body weight and body composition have remained stable for years. Yet, I could still try to reduce the size of my meals by increasing calorie density, e. g. by reducing the amount of cooking water when I prepare grains, or by including more milled grains, such as whole grain pasta and bread.
For orientation, what is the maximum size of a meal (i. e. volume, in ml) you would recommend for an adult male?
