Timing of meals on P2.

Has anyone experimented with changing the timing of their meals while on P2 protocol?

I am wondering whether it affects weight loss , as I have changed to eating breakfast and lunch, no dinner and this has coincided with a slowdown of my weightloss. This has been my progress so far.

8/9/12 109.9 load 1
29/9/12 109.6 load 2 lost 300 grams...weird!
30/9/12 109.6 day 1 vlc starting measurements 48/38/48

3/10/12 106.6 day 4 -.9 total - 3.3
4/10/12 106.3 day 5 -.3 total -3.6
5/10/12 105.9 day 6 -.4 total 4
6/10/12 105.6 day 7 -.3 total 4.3 kg 9.4 pounds
week 1 measurements 47/37/46 -4 inches weeks loss 4.3 kg

7/10/12 105.2 day 8 - .4 total 4.7kg
8/10/12 104.8 day 9 - .4 total 5.1kg
9/10/12 104.2 day 10 -.6 total 5.8kg
10/10/12 103.8 day 11 -.4 total 6.2kg half way through my first round!
11/10/12 103.7 day 12 -.1 total 6.3 what is this???_.1? 46/35 1/2/46
12/10/12 103.4 day 13 -.3 total 6.6
13/10/12 102.8 day 14 -.6 total 7.2
week 2 loss -2.8kg/6.1 pounds, 45/35/45 -5 inches ,

14/10/12 102.5 day 15 -.3 Tom arrived!
15/10/12 102.2 day 16 -.3
16/10/12 101.6 day 17 -6 Still trucking along! Bit hungry - hormones?
17/10/12 101.3 day 18 -.3 keep swimming!
18/10/12 100.8 day 19 -.5 reconsidering doing 21 day round...
19/10/12 100.2 day 20 -.6 egg brekkie seems ok,
20/10/12 100.4 day 21 +.2 what????
week 3 loss -2.1kg /4.6lb 45/35/35 no inch change????

21/10/12 99.9 day 22 -.5 44/35/44 2 inches down too!
22/10/12 99.6 day 23 -.3
23/10/12 99.6 day 24 -0 First day with no change.
24/10/12 99.3 day 25 -.3
25/10/12 99.2 day 26 -.1 slow, slow , slow.
26/10/12 99.1 day 27 -.1 sick of this number

I switched to the breakfast/lunch on day 21 and have done it since then. I like it because I feel much more energy during the day , when I need it at work. I don't usually get hungry at night, although I might have an urge if I smell the kids dinners. I am on Hhcg, intermountain drops and this is my first round ever. I was hungry during the first week, but changed the dose and feel good now.
My calories have stayed the same, between about 480 to 560 calories depending on the day and I am still eating the same types of food, strictly on Simeons protocol.
Any advice?

I noticed when I was on P2 I could NOT eat late at night and see a loss the next day. I had a job where my shift ended at 8PM, but wouldn't really get off til about 9 some nights. I would not eat my dinner til I was done, and that did not equal a loss---ever. It was disappointing to be sure.

Other than finding out that I cannot eat dinner late at night, I never messed with the timing of the other meals. I did try to spread my food out during the day so I was eating 3 meals and 2 snacks in my first round, but I didn't see a coincidence between that and more losses. Didn't do it with my other rounds though. I just tried to get all the food in, in a day. Any way I could!!! I didn't take notice as to when I was eating. I just ate lunch and dinner, making sure to finish eating dinner before 7PM.

I eat every day at noon and 5pm. I don't normally get hungry when I do this and I've had awesome losses! I dont split my fruit from my meals either.

Still not sure whether timing affects weight loss. It looks like eating dinner early is good, undecided about eating breakfast and other than that no consistent pattern. Might have to do my own experimenting. Thank you for your input!
