Do you ever just forget to eat?

(Dirty Lazy Keto'er, Sucralose freak ;)) #1

So I had a pretty good sized breakfast. Good amount of bacon and 4 whole eggs.
Then, got out for the day… My GF and I got new phones (Google Pixel 3a XL’s) had to do a 1 1/2 hr round trip for mine. Got home around 5, and started playing with my new toy.

I thought about dinner around 5:30… Even told my GF I’d cook… The next time I even considered dinner, or the time, it was 9:30 ?
Quick calculation… Oh chit ! I haven’t eaten for 13 hrs !
I’m telling you guys, this just never happened when I ate carbs ! In fact, no matter how big my B-fast was, I’d be starving 4 hours later… And I mean like grumpy, chew your arm off hungry !
When I used to even hear the word, fasting, I’d just laugh and say those people were out of their minds.
But now, I guess I’m doing it without even trying !
I’m going to be carrying those Tuna and herring in Olive oil, just in case I get so hungry I have to eat something, but honestly, and feeling like I can go days…
Loving this way of eating :slightly_smiling_face::slightly_smiling_face::slightly_smiling_face:

No I haven’t. But others repor tthey do. I grew up in a family where meals were important to connection with the social fabric of family and friends.

So eating in important to me and I look forward to meals. But fasting is equally important to me and I look forward to fasting. Fasting has helped me reduce my BG levels and likely insulin.

I found those in the store yesterday; was really excited. I’m fasting so I was only in the store for HWC so I didn’t get any tuna but I will soon.

Question: Do you remember what the price was? It was 2/$4 at my store, about .50 more than chunk albacore. Just wondering if that’s a good price. Wally World will probably have it cheaper.

Oops.

$2 is a good price. I figured if I paid $2.59 at Safeway, I could find it for less than $2 elsewhere, but with an Amazon and Walmart.com search, I think the cheapest was still just over $2
Oh, and I had said, the next time I even considered dinner… But what I forgot to say was, even then, I only considered it because my GF was like, WTH ? It’s 9:30 and you said you’d make dinner ! :grinning: Oops is right !

Not lately I haven’t forgotten to eat. Lately I’ve sucked at life.

I don’t so much forget to eat as just don’t get around to it. I’ve discovered that the space/time continuum contracts the older I get. I seem to have more to do and less time to do it. :upside_down_face:
