I have a little story to relate.
something quite interesting has happened to my Eating Patterns in the last 4-6 weeks. Basically, I only eat ONCE A DAY now. This was not by design, but happened of its own accord.
now, that one meal (usually in the mornings, around 8am), is pretty large think of a large lunchbox, full up with food. And I finish it off with a small serving of ice-cream and yoghurt.
there was a stage when I was attending university when I tried making it on two meals a day, one before I went in to classes, and another when I came home at nights. But I did that for budgetary reasons at the time. But that was a deliberate choice back then.
my dietary habits and methods have fluctuated greatly since I left high school over 18 years ago. I have experimented a lot with various foods and cooking styles.
but this recent change has struck me with its self-generated nature. Almost like when I started meditating spontaneously about 3 years ago.
it is definitely not uncomfortable eating just the once a day; in fact, I find it quite convenient. I haven't noticed any ill-effects on my physique (no weight loss, sleep is quite sound).
obviously, I am NOT recommending this to anyone lol.
