fat fuck here. if i stick to a daily calorie limit, does it make a difference how many meals i eat?
e.g. on 2000 calories/day
four meals: 500 + 500 + 500 + 500
or
two meals: 1700 + 300

Doesn't matter, I split mine up at around 500, 750, 750 so I don't feel hungry during the day.
Eating one giant meal and going hungry the rest of the day is going to be harder to stick with.
I usually aim for three meals of 450-500 with a 200-300 calorie snack around 8PM. During the day I'm too busy to feel hungry between meals, and in the evening when I'm just lazing around it's nice to have some extra calories for a snack when you feel hunger pangs.

It does matter. Thats why IF is a thing

I like eating a big meal at noon and ending of with a light meal at around 5-8 pm. I don't like sleeping with a full stomach...
probably a bad habit to get into, eating 1700 calorie meals. probably would be better to start having regular meals with reasonable portion sizes instead of trying to budget your day around binge eating one meal.

It all depends on what you want. Believe it or not this is the case for most of fitness: Do what you want to do to achieve your goals.
