have you ever intentionally skipped a meal in order to loose weight or look slimmer?

Yes.....when I was about 9 or 10 since then no.  The only reason I would miss a meal now is if I'm lazy and can't be bothered or I'm traveling or have no money.

of course.

but i think that people as a species eat way too much. every other living thing on the planet eats for survival, not for pleasure and gluttony like we do.
it's not a BAD thing if you don't get 3 square meals and a couple snacks a day. we have fat reserves for that purpose.

what are you, gossipy?

Yes, but I try to resist doing that as much as I can, and just opt for smaller, healthy meals.

I chose, and my world was shaken. So what?
The choice may have been mistaken, the choosing was not...
