Really? Do you eat snacks later in the day?

I'll eat more than once in some situations:

- Free food at the office

- Free food samples at the store

- Family/friend cooks breakfast/lunch

- Special breakfast/brunch/lunch event

- Coupons for >30% off at a nearby restaurant

- Going out for drinks/concert/movie

- Traveling and eating street food

I'm not too strict about it. I basically won't go out of my way to get food more than once a day (usually at around 7PM).

I skipped breakfast for as long as I can remember. I stopped eating lunch 4 years ago when I was doing keto, was never hungry, and wanted to save money (I used to eat out every lunch). Since then, I eat breakfast maybe once a month, and lunch maybe once a week (both off and on keto).

Some call it 23:1 intermittent fasting.
