Do you ever forget to eat?

[Jackie0824]

Do you ever forget to eat? Ive heard this alot. I can honestly say No, Ive never forgotten to eat. There is times, I dont get to eat when I want, expecially in the mornings. Mornings are hectic with the 3 kids, feeding them, feeding and tending to the dogs, getting the kids off to school. So sometimes I dont eat my breakfast until much later in the morning, Im always thinking about it though LOL.
Ive always been overweight, so forgetting to eat has never been a problem.
But, Ive heard this alot "Oh I forgot to eat today"...hmmm I wish I could forget to eat, then I would be thin.

never

I live for food.

I know it's wrong, but I've come to terms with it.

 

[Poohgirl]

I wish!

Sometimes. Only when I'm really busy or something exciting is going on.

Forget to eat?

My life revovles around food and look forward to each meal. As of now I have 60 minutes until lunch. I look at the time on the computer and countdown when it's until 12:30.

Is that possible? I'm always thinking about what I'm gonna eat next. At breakfast I think about lunch and at lunch I think about dinner. It's a never ending cycle.

Sometimes I'll get busy at work to the point of not eating lunch. It's not that I've forgotten, it's just that I don't have the time.

yes - i do this frequently. a few weeks ago i almost passed out in my yoga class and i realized it was because the only thing i had eaten that day was a pudding pack! (my yoga class is at 6pm). i had been so busy and stressed i just hadn't been hungry.

Sometimes if I'm really busy I'll start getting "witchy" and realize it's because I haven't eaten in a long time. Don't worry though, I always make up for it.

 

[Tigger&Belle]

I will forget to eat breakfast sometimes. I'll drink my coffee, get my youngest off to school, feed the animals, sift the litterboxes, etc. When lunchtime rolls around I will wonder why I'm so hungry. I NEVER forget to eat lunch or dinner, though.

 

[icebrat001]

yep, I forget to eat and then I remember but then I am too tired and lazy to cook so that I can eat, so I go to sleep and then I get busy and I forget again. I've forgotten to eat for as many as 3 days before.

 

[BelleMcNally]

I must admit that, yes, I've forgotten to eat on quite few occassions...I'll be starving and suddenly realize it's because I was supposed to take a lunch break 2 hours ago!

That said, sometimes I forget to *stop* eating too!

 

[MsDisney23]

Lunch is in the oven!

 

[mtblujeans]

Yeah, I do that. It usually seems I forget to eat when I have to take medication that requires food in my stomach....so then I end up forgetting them both!

 

[Cruisin]

Forget to eat

Nope that never happens.

The only reason I get out of bed in the morning is to eat

 

[mickeyboat]

When I was in Paris last week, I forgot to eat quite a few times. But when I am home, it seems like my schedule revolves around meal times.

Yes, all the time. When I get upset or stressed, I totally lose my appetite--food just sounds horrible to me. I lost 20 lbs when I got divorced and I was barely at a normal weight then.

A couple of years ago, I developed low blood sugar. Now I have to eat every couple of hours whether I'm hungry or not. In fact, when I'm NOT hungry at all, it usually means my sugar has dropped way too low and I have to force myself to eat something.

When I saw this thread - I immediatly thought about a comedienne who pokes fun at women who say the forgot to eat -

Her response is " Now I have forgotten my keys before but it takes a special kind of person to forget to eat"

Please don't flame me for the response - I was quoting someone else and just thought it was funny!!!!

BTW- yeah I fogotten to eat - I will get so caught up in cleaning the house - then DH will ask me at some point - "what is for lunch" and it's 2 in the afternoon......

 

[ItsonlyExperiment626]

I do this almost daily. Sometimes I will be in the middle of something and ask myself what did I have for a certain meal. Quite often the answer would be nothing like this morning. I'm driving around doing errands and I'm thinking what in the world did I have for breakfast or did I even have breakfast.

 

[arminnie]

All of the time - but you'd never know it by looking at me.
