For the year after law school that I lived by myself and had actual free time, I fell into a two meal a day routine on weekends. Huge breakfast at about 8:30/9am, with a french-press-full of coffee. Out the door for rehearsals, hiking, and fishing. Moderate dinner around 6pm. Healthiest I've ever felt.Yorkboy wrote: ↑Wed Aug 26, 2020 8:21 pmVery healthy to skip breakfast in general, IMHO.

I kinda get there around 10am now, but I just skip all the way to lunch so that I don't put that junk through my horns.
Oddly enough, my first (and only) 20 oz cup of coffee in the morning actually occasionally makes me sleepy....could this be possible, or am I imagining it? On days I skip coffee, I don't feel as tired.
I take it black with just a pinch of salt, or occasionally a few drops of electrolyte, like 40,000 Volts - I find it takes some of the bitterness off it.
However, in my family now, I am the outlier. My wife and daughter are NOT breakfast people. I can't go without it.
But since I'm now less active than I had been, I feel better on a day to day basis (and my doctor is happier with me...) with a smaller breakfast, big lunch, and moderate dinner. Also heartburn is a thing that started happening a while ago. So "moderate" is very key these days...
