I remember doing this in college.
no food? looks like I’m having a 16 hour nap for dinner and breakfast.
I pretty much eat 1 meal a day because that’s all I can afford. Other than sex and companionship, I also seeks dates because I am hungry.
Alternatively, when you get hungry in the evening, just have “go to sleep” for dinner!
A couple of years ago, I was working way too much and I lost the habit of eating lunch. It turns out I don’t miss it that much. I just dont eat a meal, sometimes maybe a handful of chickpeas or something if I feel like I need the energy. I lost about 45 lbs through this somewhat accidental intermittent fasting.
I have to wonder how much money I have saved by skipping one meal a day for years.
I definitely need that meal to have energy to work
Can’t you just check your bank account?
Okay, I’ll bite. How would that work? My bank account is just a string of nunbers. It doesnt have a way to tell me how much I didnt spend on 3 years of hypothetical lunches. I buy all my groceries for our meals all at once, not through separate accounts for breakfast, “what would have been lunch,” and supper.
If you have more money in there than planned then you’ve saved some.
I have “saved” a lot of money over the years by not buying cars (never owned one), yet my bank account doesn’t reflect that. I save even more money buy not buying Ferraris.

What the hell was the point of your original question 😂
As I suspected, it was just a play on “saved” as if I didnt go spend that same money on groceries and clothing for my kids.
edit: Actually makes me wonder if u/raindog is german or austrian. Reminds me of their sense of “humor”.
I suppose you could figure out an average meal price then multiply that by however many days
The difference is you haven’t stopped buying cars after doing so your entire adult life. Because in that case the statement that you’ve saved money by changing your habits would absolutely be justified.
Jokes on you, I can sleep 13 hours a day and still eat six meals.
Of course, what would we do without 2nd breakfast, 2nd lunch and 2nd dinner?
Are you a Dragon Ball character?
>be me >wake up at 8 >still only have two meals a day

This used to work great before the pandemic. Need a new plan ASAP.
