I leave food out for my two (12 lbs & 7 lbs) 24/7. They eat what I'd call a "full" meal twice a day (4A & 4P), and nibble several times a day in-between meals.
Some days go by, and I think they don't eat anything, but, I'm sure they grab a snack or two without me knowing. I've always just let them eat anytime they want, and both mine have good weight and are active.
On the other hand, there are some days (infrequently) when I have to refill their bowls twice in a day.
This method has been extremely convenient !
