Meals a day

How often do you eat a meal daily? I only eat once a day and sometimes I ll skip a day to let body process a previous proper meal. Tend to eat only when hungry and rarely during work as my work demands of the body and it just gets sluggish if I ve eaten then go swinging around in trees. If I feel hungry I eat if not I don t.

Mostly I eat 2 meals a day, mostly skipping breakfast.

I wish I could only eat when I'm hungry like you, but my self regulator is broken.

I don't eat as much as I used to, but I nibble. Sat at a desk all day doesn't help.

And it takes a lot of energy to keep a body my size going. Lol

Breakfast, lunch and dinner every day. I get what you mean by feeling sluggish after a meal though and after watching The Game Changers recently I'm gonna give a plant based diet a go in the new year. It'll be tough as I love my food lol

Good luck but we were created omnivores and meat gives what plants can t ...it's not what you eat but how much and balancing the physical...so if I have a day doing not a lot then I don t touch food as for me it's not necessary...hope that doesn't t read wrong..

I get you, your post read well

I would encourage you to watch The Game Changers though, our bodies get what we need from animals because they eat the plants. The real goodness is in the plants, so it goes anyway.

So B12 is one you should take supplements for. Apparently it comes from the dirt, when animals forage in the earth for food they inadvertently eat the dirt which is where we get B12 from. I imagine a deficiency in B12 would have been a nightmare man.

Nope never use unnatural...I found a steak a week cured the problem..I got to the point my tongue and upper palate felt weird, raw, sore...soon as I ate some beef it started to dissipate

3 meals a day as the body needs regular input but the quantity at each meal varies depending on hunger.

Mine is lack of time to eat at the "right time" if that makes sense. Shift work screws everything about.

Today for example. Should have been my day off so I was doing myself a roast, get called into work for 5 (got the call at 2.45) so need to be out the house by 4ish. That gave me just over an hour to go from not being safe to enter the outside world to looking human like. That ain't long to shower and get ready, sort uniform etc. No time to eat unless I grab some toast or a crumpet. I won't finish til about 11 and don't like to eat late, 8pm is normally my eating "last orders" if it's a proper meal.

So, I'll be going without tonight

How do you replace the energy you burn off, with you being so active?

3 meals a day totalling less than 1850 calories plus a 500 cal burn walk daily so net 1350 cals +/- 50.

I used to treat my body like a play park and eat rubbish daily but I’ve wisened up a bit.
