    You don’t eat three meals a day because you have no money.

    I don’t eat three meals a day because I want to lose weight.

    We’re not the same.

      I don’t eat three meals a day because shit is it already 5 pm? Why did my hunger response not say anything? Time to eat my entire daily caloric allowance in one sitting

      We’re not the same

        Why is it contra productive? If their daily calorie intake goes down than it is effective. That’s all that matters. Doesn’t matter if they achieve that trough intermittent fasting or calorie restriction.

          because your metabolism consumes the most calories - and if you don’t eat anything, it’ll just slow the process of consuming calories.

          So, to keep it running, you have to give it at least SOMETHING to work with.
