Do you find yourself not eating or skipping meals just because you're MyLotting? Just this week, I spent around 2 days of MyLotting, and then finding myself having so much fun doing MyLot that I actually skipped meals. If I hadn't felt woozy/faint from being too hungry, I wouldn't have stopped! How about you? Do you find yourself not eating or skipping meals coz you're having too much fun on MyLot? Do share!

well i have been on here for a week and only made $0.22 by making 2 disscusions and repsonding to a few. So to me that was better than blogging on triond and making $0.12 in 3 months. but i have a son i need to take care of so when hes playing or sleeping im on mylot trying to get things done! sometimes i bring the food over to where my computer is so i can munch and type at the same time! so no i dont skip meals, there was one site i did, no wait, that was yahoo. lol if i have to much fun talking to people i wont eat until i get bored and my friends arnt really saying anything! lol but girl you need to eat. just tell yourself, for every hour ur on mylot, take a 10 min break and grab something to eat or whatever. because even staring at a computer screen that long can do some damage!

Haha, I love this! Thank you for the reminder, Caydensmom! Yes, I do eat nowadays. Though I did thin down. :D I think it's a matter of understanding priorities. Right now my priority is to be the best I can be in my work, and that does mean setting aside MyLot for actual work. :D So aside from MyLot, what else do you do? :)

Well yea I do think I have done that before. Right now I am mylotting and have not eaten dinner but I am not hungry. Here it is 9:42, I ate about 1:30 with the fam, but that was my first meal of the day to. I have gotten to the point where I needed to get off or I'd throw up from not eating.

Yeah, there was a day when I had to tear myself from MyLot in order to just eat. :) I guess we have to keep reminding ourselves that our bodies have needs too, heheh. :D Thanks for replying!

Who can blame us though this is a fun site that helps us to earn as well. I even come on here before getting breakfast most days.

Actually, I do the opposite, I skip mylot for meals. hehehe.. I mean, the topics would not be lost in any way if you skip it and eat. It's not like you're in the middle of a game or a show that couldn't be paused. So, I definitely won't skip meals for mylot. But I would skip going out at night for mylot - you still have the fun less the pain in the pocket and on the legs.

Yeah, and you earn too. :) Yeah, I guess the topics would still be there. :) However there are times when MyLotting really is pretty compelling. Like you just wanna keep answering posts and stuff. I guess what would work for me better would be setting a quota for myself, that way I reach my goals, while being able to make sure that I get to live a rich life outside the world of MyLot as well. Thanks for answering!

yes, but not too often. I used to bring my meal to my computer desk. I can enjoy my meal while i am eating my meal at the same time.

I love to eat, too, but I'm also working on losing weight, so I guess skipping meals in favor of MyLot would be a boost to my efforts, hahaha! But yeah to each his own. I would definitely not exchange roast pork for MyLot! I'll choose roast pork anyday! (Uhh, so where did my diet go? Hehehe!)

Hey girl you go too far! At least stay healthy! There are not a lot of reasons that would let me skip a meal. I can understand losing sleep for Mylot but skipping meals?! I think that is on a whole different realm of addictiveness. I hope Mylot doesn't suck away our souls!! Stay strong! =)

Haha, you're funny, Eddy. XD I was just wondering if other people have the tendency to do this too. I sometimes go on a MyLot streak then I go off of MyLot again. :D Heheh! Well, today I wanna keep things at a balance, I just set a limit for myself, then it's see you tomorrow. Hehehe!

Wow, Hatley, you're 80! That's amazing! This is nice, that you're still on MyLot even at your age. Would you like to earn points for gadgets too? I'll add you and send you a message. :D

Hi, nenyalorien. No. I am usually hungry when I am at myLot. I never can go without eating. I always seem to get a hungry stomach when I am myLotting. I always take a lunch break. I will put this laptop onto sleep and I will go and find something to eat. I never starve myself when myLotting. If I don't eat, I will never have the energy that I have now, to post.

I........ Think I want to encourage my MyLot Eating Disorder/MyLot Induced Anorexia here. XD I'm a fat girl, so I have LOTS of fat to burn. I do not endorse anorexia, bulimia or other eating disorders, but I could use eating less. Yeah, just make sure that we tap ourselves on the shoulder and eat when we're REALLY hungry, eh? :D

This I definitely don't do!. I love My Lot but I don't love it that much!. Meals are always important to me and I make sure I never miss them, I always make time to cook a proper meal and this at least keeps me content. I generally turn to My Lot during the late evening hours and this is more than adequate for my needs. I think when I am online then I devote ninty per cent of my time to My Lot which is quite a lot when you come to think about it! Andrew

Whoa. I'm actually more into Facebook-wallowing rather than MyLot-wallowing. I guess it's because the people I see there are people I know in real life, and people here in MyLot are people I just meet here. :) But I know that's gonna change soon, because I'm inviting more of my friends here! Whee!! Wow, what do you cook, Andrew? I only get to cook rice here in my apartment. I hope to change that soon. :)

No, I have never did this act. Mylotting never says that skip the meal, they want healty people in discussion and all tasks..I come here when I am done with all my work, eating, completing all the work and when I am free. Whenever I am free I login and response to the discussion or do some tasks if avaiable. I have never thought of skipping my meals. But if I am doing something important on net then I do skip, try to finish the work and then eat.

Honestly, I love MyLot better than most other forums. I've hung out in other forums, and I realized that MyLot is more worth hanging out in. The layout is definitely cleaner, in a literal way. And what's more, the people and discussions here are definitely cleaner, in a figurative way. Though I've already gotten into a flame war here before, it's not as common as in regular forums. And that's one more reason why I love MyLot. :D

Sure I skip meals for mylot. I use my earnings to buy food hehe. I wish to eat during the time for meals but then the food is not even cooked yet. It is more appropriate to delay sometimes so to avoid getting hungry again.

Ahh. :) I guess you do MyLot while your mom/girlfriend/wife cooks your meals eh? Hmm. MyLot to buy food. How much MyLot do you do that it could feed your daily meals, anyway??? Heheheh! Anyway, see you around, Cowboy, thanks for answering!

hmm.. it might, but not always happened like that huh? surely sometimes myLot cant make you losing your mind to do another thing, it accords the topic discussion that discusses, and the responses come. however, i have ever forgotten my lunch just by reading the discussions.. amazed.. =p
• Philippines

Hmm you have... Never forgotten lunch? Or you've forgotten lunch thanks to the discussions? Either way, yes, I think MyLot is just so involving that I could forget meals and other needs like (shh) bathing, sometimes! Harhar!

I don't think that I've ever done that. I don't think that I've ever skipped meals for mylot. I've eaten meals while on mylot, I've eaten meals a little later because of mylot, but I've never really skipped a meal. At least not as far as I'm concerned. I really can remember this ever happening.

there were times that i have to skip meal when i am on mylot. when i was new, i still have a second job where i spent most of my evening and doing mylot at work. i come to work at six and goes out at 10 or later. and after about 20 minutes after leaving the workplace, that will only be the time for me and my wife to take dinner. a bit too late, right?
