I find that it depends on the project, but there have been times when I am so focused I start coding in the shower. Then proceed to forget to eat breakfast... lunch... and dinner. I just forget about my body.

That have not happened to me even once. My brain needs too much sugar to function propery and if I miss a meal he won't work at all. On the other hand I can easily disconnect my body from my brain while riding my bike and forget completely about eating & drinking. When I reach my limit I faint, stumble and fall.
