A couple of years ago, I was working way too much and I lost the habit of eating lunch. It turns out I don't miss it that much. I just dont eat a meal, sometimes maybe a handful of chickpeas or something if I feel like I need the energy. I lost about 45 lbs through this somewhat accidental intermittent fasting.

I have to wonder how much money I have saved by skipping one meal a day for years.

Can't you just check your bank account?

Okay, I'll bite. How would that work? My bank account is just a string of numbers. It doesnt have a way to tell me how much I didnt spend on 3 years of hypothetical lunches. I buy all my groceries for our meals all at once, not through separate accounts for breakfast, "what would have been lunch," and supper.

I definitely need that meal to have energy to work

Jokes on you, I can sleep 13 hours a day and still eat six meals.

Of course, what would we do without 2nd breakfast, 2nd lunch and 2nd dinner?

Are you a Dragon Ball character?

Alternatively, when you get hungry in the evening, just have "go to sleep" for dinner!

I remember doing this in college.

no food? looks like I'm having a 16 hour nap for dinner and breakfast.

I pretty much eat 1 meal a day because that's all I can afford. Other than sex and companionship, I also seeks dates because I am hungry.

It saves time and money!

This used to work great before the pandemic. Need a new plan ASAP.
