Memes
Post memes here.
A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

Worse yet, there are people who don't eat breakfast. Do they photosynthesize their food instead?
I don't. I feel it takes a few hours (4-5) for my body to wake up enough to feel hunger, and if I force myself to eat breakfast I feel queasy. So I just eat black coffee and move on.
So I just eat black coffee and move on.
Great, now I have this mental image of you waking up late, going "NO TIME TO WAIT FOR THE KETTLE!" and just eating spoonfuls of instant coffee straight from the jar before running out of the house.
It's a very handy routine when you're a bit short on time in the morning
Have tried it, wouldn't recommend it.
Same, a large breakfast makes me feel queasy too. I never met another person like this. I usually don't eat until noon.
But, 10AM and later, I'm not queasy.
This. I really only eat a small breakfast because I have to for meds, but if it weren't for that I'd totally be fine with one big meal a day (turns out to be dinner most of the time) and perhaps one apple or sth. late at night.
This forced 3-meal system is so weird and inconvenient.
I literally feel sick if I eat breakfast. Only after a couple hours do I get hungry. I only really eat breakfast if I know I am going to be physically active and will need the energy like if I went cycling or hiking.
Most of the days I just have one meal, at like 4 or 5 pm. While being up since like 3-5am cause of work.
And I still maintain 80-82kg weight.
Without your height your weight doesn't mean much
Used to abstain from eating breakfast sometimes when I was younger. Now I'll likely feel nauseous if I do.
There's no rhyme or reason to it, but some mornings a black coffee is all I seem to want/need which is kinda negative calories
Other mornings I'll polish the plate of a large full English and will perish if I don't
I don't get hungry often, at least not the way I think normal people do. I usually go from 'fine' to 'more than mildly queasy' in a couple minutes, then I have to rush to find something to throw in my stomach. It's like flipping a light switch. This usually only happens when I have some project I'm focusing on.
don't want to armchair diagnose, but i had the exact same thing and prozac gave me the ability to feel hungry again. I used to feel exactly how you would.
I’m actually on an SNRI (like SSRI but also inhibits dopamine reuptake) as part of my adhd treatment so sadly that won’t do it for me. I think my brain just ignores hunger when I’m too busy to think about food, then eventually it just yells YO FEED ME.
Yeah it felt like reading ADHD symptoms. I get it completely.
Ate without table -3
If this resonates with you, please check for sugar related health issues. (I am not saying you have them, but it is time to check.)
Those aren't mutually exclusive (send help)
I work from home, IT, 8-10 hours sitting, programming. If I ate five meals a day I'd weight a ton in few months.
Fasting helps me keeping the callory intake down. First meal at 3-6pm then some snack in the evening, keeping sugar intake low. If I eat in the morning I feel bloated and sluggish + at around 2pm I feel tired.
Not eating keeps me fresh.
5 meals is also excessive. I have the same schedule and I eat the normal 3 meals a day: breakfast, lunch, dinner. I can't really miss any because then my tummy becomes very distracting. I really don't understand how you can go till 3pm without feeling any adverse effects. If I skip breakfast I'll be useless and dizzy till lunch.
I just don't eat more than I need each meal.
It's because they keep their sugar intake low. Most of the hunger urges are carbohydrate addiction manifesting
Depends on what is meant by a meal. You could simply eat smaller meals to get less calory intake.
Not everybody is blessed with a super metabolism CATE. Check your privilege.
For real.
I did try not to eat for a week and nothing happened, yes I lost a bit weight but minimal.
You actually have to expend calories, too
Being alive uses energy, if someone fasts for a week their basal metabolic burn rate would come from their stored fat.
Call it 1,500 a day for the average adult. A pound is about 3,300.. so they should burn a pound of fat every two days just for existing
Why, does the calorie economy depend in it? Who are you working for, Big Food?
Prolly trying to trick us into making free co2.
The trick is to have an undiagnosed illness that constantly upsets your stomach and threatens to regurgitate any food you eat. Once I realized it hurts less to not eat at all, I started regularly skipping on meals. What's really annoying is that I still have a pudgy tummy, even though I'm stuck on a diet some people would dream of being able to commit to.
The secret is to be incredibly neurodivergent and unlock the secrets to extreme hyperfixation. The more you lose track of time, the better, as this is also the threshold where hunger ceases to exist.

Im just extremely depressed :3
I used to think I was the same way but started omad to lose weight and you do get used to it. As long as there’s enough protein and fiber and the meal is big enough then I’m completely fine for 24 hours at a time.
Most of us are fuel by hatred towards something/someone.
You'd be amazed at how filling spite can be.
I feel sick if I skip a meal
That is a sign of carbohydrate addiction. If you switch your food to protein and fat, after a few weeks you won't have the urgency and you will find skipping a meal is fine.
fwiw that's actually why I think I'm healthier when I have those meal replacement shakes in the house somewhere. People always are like "ew why would you replace meals with that?". But they actually don't. They replace NOT having meals. Because when I have that "one more thing to do", if don't eat something super low effort right when I think about it, I'm just gonna power through and forget again.
I'm really fat, so as long as I have water, electrolytes, and a multivitamin I could probably go for several months without food before really bad stuff started happening
As it stands, a day or two barely registers
