You always think harder is better. Maybe next time I patrol, I should carry bricks and use a stake made out of butter.

I just eat way too much, I would need to taper before fasting or my body would freak out. I have never been able to stay on top of calorie counting.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I basically have never missed a meal in my life, and am often lightheaded and hangry in between breakfast and lunch! Fasting I think is not for me

This was true of me when I had a fast metabolism. Also when I was trying to gain weight.

These last few months I've had times when it was mealtime but I just wasn't hungry. So I've been skipping meals from time to time.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I've been having to eat 6 times a day on my Gestational Diabetes diet, and I have maybe felt hungry once or twice in the past several weeks.

Yeah, I bet that would be a better way for me to eat, really.

I'm not sure I could fast on a work day because of a) the plentiful food at my office, and b) how I would cut someone. Right now I'm just trying to be mindful and only eat when I'm hungry, not just because it's there.

Some dude started using a leaf blower non-stop at 8am this morning. SO LOUD.

Mine is between lunch and dinner, but yes. I have learned to NEVER miss a meal.

I had a weird morning-- I forgot to bring my advil home with me last night, so I woke up with hip and leg pain. I went to the gas station to buy a little packet of advil to take, and then got on the bus. At some point the bus was so packed, the pain was so bad, and taking advil on an empty stomach was making me nauseated, so I got of the bus, what I thought was a short walk to the transfer station. But it was not- It was a mile away- but at least less hot and I immediately stopped feeling like vomiting all over the bus (I think I would die of embarrassment if that happened) That made me really late to work, because I missed the transfer, and it has been two hours and the Advil hasn't really kicked in.

I would like to just cut off my body below the chest and live as a bust. Or perhaps like the Zoe Wanamaker stretched out skin lady in Dr. WHo.

Me too. Although I do not always recognize hunger correctly, apparently. And sometimes I know I am just eating because I want to eat and not because I am actually hungry but that bacon-wrapped pizza is just so tasty so I do it anyway. But at least I know I'm doing it.

Oh, man, Sophia, that is quite a morning.

I don't always feel hungry and then it is too late and I am super hungry and I overeat. I just looked at calorie count for breakfast and I have already had half of my recommended amount. My dr wants me aiming for 1200 and I think I am easily over 2000 most days. My ever increasing gut verifies that.

I make very bad decisions about what to eat when I get really hungry and then eat too much.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

My dr wants me aiming for 1200

That is SUPER unhealthy. What evidence-based study was your doctor basing that on?

Eh, I find around 1200 calories about right many days. Not always, but often.
