No more than 500 Calories per meal. Smaller is better and more efficient too. Smaller is more even on the blood sugar levels and the protein will help keep you from getting catabolic.

The first meal can and should be the biggest. Not too big though. I liked oatmeal 1/2 cup not cooked (30 grams carbs) with a small amount of butter, better yet a really small handfull of peanuts and a scoop of some good whey protein (25 grams). This satisfies your carbs, fiber (for your heart), protein and fats (good). This kindof eating would lower Cholesterol (bad LDL's) and raise the good (HDL's) from the peanuts. You could use avacado or flax seed or flaxseed oil. Now this would not make a good tasting breakfast but would be good for you and your muscles and heart. Now the 500 calorie rule. If you want to double the above breakfast then do so as it would be right at the max cal. consumption. If you want to diet then, adhere to above and call this (1) meal.
Best carbs are fruits and Vege's but oatmeal is good on the heart.
I liked eating every 3 hrs. but small meals no more than 500 cals.
My best results were 7 meals a day and the smallest the last with 40 30 30 at 95 cals just before bed.
Maybe not for everyone but this is just my 2 cents worth from my perspective.
