Re: Can you survive eating one meal a day?
Yes you can, even small ones.

My gallbladder sucked so bad that I could only eat once around 5pm.

I was too sick to my stomach in the morning, and at lunch I was too scared i would ruin the rest of my day at work.

Just eat something with substance and make sure to drink lots during the day.

How often do you think people ate few hundred years ago? Only one probably if even. Marketing and Advertising has people believing that they have to eat a few meals a day to sell their products. I have yet to meet a slim American, they think are large portions over here are small, greedy fat fucks

Re: Can you survive eating one meal a day?
I read some people eat just once a day because of tough times. Are there people who really just eat once a day to save money? How can you survive and what do you eat?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 10885457


Yep, for sure. Sometimes I eat one meal a day every three days.

With a high-fat diet, one meal a day is enough to keep the hunger away..

The USA is filled with fatasses who hoover up junk food. Somehow or other everyone on GLP only eats one big well balanced healthy meal a day. Hmmmmmm.

Re: Can you survive eating one meal a day?
Only eat one maybe two meals a day since I was a kid,

Never had any health problems, I just never eat breakfast and hardly eat lunch.

All those advertisements about breakfast being the most important meal of the day and you will have no energy if you skip breakfast are crap.
I have too much energy, people always comment on how much energy I have.

If anything big breakfast/lunch make me tired,and I cannot think.

Re: Can you survive eating one meal a day?
I eat loads for breakfast, in fact its usually my biggest meal and sometimes my only meal.
But breakfast for me consists of rice, stir fry veg/chicken ect and always some form of salad. Thai red curry is my favourite tho yummm yumm!
I eat quite a lot in one sitting (well a large plateful). You can guarantee it gets your metabolism started and you never store fat because you use up all the calories during the day.

I see the amount some people eat and it makes me puke - pure gluttony there.

Re: Can you survive eating one meal a day?
I used to eat a lot of food in a day when I was younger, was as thin as a rake though, but was quite active. Keeping active now, but find I only need one main meal a day, maybe the odd snack. Not hunger enough to eat when I'm awake, just NEED my Nescafe coffee first, even before I roll a spliff. Sometimes I don't even bother eating all day at all, very little.. if anything.
Apart from the 'obvious' advice of losing weight via diet & exercise, another way to lose weight is to cut out big meals, just the essentials one needs in a snack. After big eating for a while, where the stomach has got bigger, the hunger pains begin to set in by the next day or two, till after a few days.. it's like 'agony' dealing with hunger pains. But, the stomach shrinks down & the hunger subsides. It's a bit like a 'withdrawal' stage. In fact, I've gone up to 3 weeks without eating any food, felt fine, if not a little weak tho'.
Wanna lose weight you fat Americans? Put up the hunger pains for a few days.. & you won't be as hungry. Try it..!

Yes one meal a day but..

BUT with the way our food is these days depleted of their nutrients. With all the stresses we have. EMF, pollution, etc.

You better make sure your food is good, and possibly best raw.

and yea trust me , if you have to feel energy with caffeine it's becaseu you're DRINKING TOO MUCH and/or not getting enough nutrition.

Because caffeine eats away at the stored nutrients you have by blocking the metabolism. Ie it can be catabolic.

Re: Can you survive eating one meal a day?
yea eating one meal a day is good if you have the resources.. and good food.

But all that coffee, and then not nourishing yourself, and smoking.. all that's not good for sexual health. Nor even mental/emotional..

How is eating one meal a day a drain on resources

One cup of rice check
Selection of veg from the local market check
One chicken thigh check

thats only a couple of quid, you could spend that much on one crappy burger.

and as for the coffee and spliff thats standard for a non - fat bitch like me. (one coffee I say, one coffee).

I am very healthy. My aura is lovely and clear. Im sure you can tell.

1 coffee is not bad. Everyday maybe it'll drain. 1 Spliff (with tobacco?) everyday.. yea also can drain.

But I mean.. if you're a woman maybe you don't need to worry too much about your sexual energy.

I barely eat. I have digestive problems, one bread gets me full up. A meal possibly makes me puke because all the food don't go down.

Maybe try a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar in water and sip it for digestion problems. You can add honey to it if you like. Might want to check out the emotional things going on in your life as well.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 18447286


If they ate only one meal then they were probably poor. Their lifestyle a few hundred years ago(and even 100 years ago) was more active than ours and they needed extra calories. It has been a custom of some to eat leftovers from the night before for breakfast. Or just have bread or cheese and tea. Lunch was probable more bread, cheese, maybe meat. And then dinner. People ate whenever they could long ago because they still had problems with famine. Food was always offered at people's houses and skinny wasn't in. Having weight on a person showed they had money and could survive a famine. For women it showed fertility. Everything is the opposite now.

I know for my mom's family in the early 1900's there was a big breakfast because they worked on farms. The afternoon meal was also big and then leftovers for dinner of just bread and milk. This was the same for her relatives in the 1800's as well. Food has just been very important. But now without famine people are just getting really fat because we are still programmed to expect a famine that doesn't come.

Saves money. You get drunk quickeer with no food to absorb the alcohol.

OP I did it because I was broke. Probably the best health I have ever been in. I didn't eat unless my blood sugar was dropping (dizzy) or my stomach was really really hungry.

Although the efficiency of a person's metabolism makes a difference in the affect it has on them. Slow metabolisms can eat less often than those with a fast metabolism.

I ate alot of M&Ms, grits, peas and hamburgers from the $1 menu with a water. I was the annoying $1.06 customer.

Actually I was pretty content and seemed to survive just fine.

It's more healthy to eat once a day, because you're extending your fasting period, which is good for you and gives your digestive system and organs a break.

Re: Can you survive eating one meal a day?
For those who say they eat one meal a day, do you eat anything at all during the day (like small snacks such as apples or other snacks)? Or do you just have your one meal and nothing else the entire day?

I usually have 2 meals a day. Something around 11:00, like a bowl of soup or a muffin, and then dinner. I'm trying to cut the morning meal out just to save some money, but I get kind of woozy if I don't have something.

Yah, food is so expensive. I keep total of how much I spend on food. Did it for a few months. It's crazy how much food costs. If you can eat once a day, it would really save money.
