Have you ever forgotten to eat?

I always forgot to eat or too " lazy " to eat when I'm alone. Do you have the same feeling. Sometimes I'm very hungry or starving, but no food is attractive to me. Or I wanna some meat, but there's none at home and I don't wanna out to supermarket to buy. When I'm surf the internet, I always forget to have lunch. Do you have the same experience? Is there any wrong with me?

For sure is something wrong with you, but don't worry there's a lot of us just like you, including myself :) . Very often I found myself surfing or playing at PC and forget that I do need to eat something. Or I'm saying to myself " OK this page and I go to eat" ya wright, it can take 30 min until I finish "that page", actually is another one and the last one, that last page is usually 3-4 pages, but...that's us internauts

yes, that's common in e-times. That happens to me, too. Even if i wanna eat, the website seems more attractive to me and makes me supress my hunger and when i have to eat, it's the time when i'm starving.

Maybe we should start selling this method as a diet one :D. Not very healthy but sure works good.

I saw this discussion listed under "Pizza" and I am wondering why? It does ot seem to have any relation to Pizza. Wouldn't it be better to post this omewhere else, such as say, "Life"? I think you would have received more reposnes if you did that.

Right. You brought up a very good point. I guess when I started this discuss, I'm so hungry that I wanna eat an entire pizza. Hahah. By the way, can i now change the list? how?

I have limited time, so be scheduled at any time to eat, sleep or be in front of the computer so I'm not forget mealtimes. Even if there is food in front of me, it made me not concentrate on typing. The most I cannot restrict the thirst will not cease.

sometimes i'm lazy to eat too. especially when browsing the net, doing homeworks and chatting. oh and if a dish isn't pleasing to my eyes. I won't eat at all and just drink water instead. If my stomach really growls a lot then that's the time i'll have to eat something.

Same here. We experience the exactly same feelings. If my stomach really growls a lot, yes, I will eat something to stop it but not to get it full. i will still hungry. Today i wanna eat Beijing roasted duck, well, when i really buy one, it is pleasing to me.

Yes, I have a lot of times. That's why I'm so skinny. That's why when I'm at work, I would put lots of foods on my table drawer, so I don't have excuse for my laziness to stand up and go to the cafe, because I've got food right there.

Good method. That's also why I'm a little fat. Every time I buy foods for storage, i will eat them at once. I have no resistance to chocolate. it's so delicious. so i'm always way too full and the next few days i have not enough pleasing food to have.

To some extent, it does happen to me sometimes. Not that I totally forget to eat but I just do something to supress that hunger and ended up not eating at all at the right time. This could be drinking water or go for a smoke or something like that.

are you on diet? Maybe you can try this. eat plain yogurt before meal. that supresses hunger and guarantee nutritions. hope it helps.

When I was really depressed I wouldn't eat some days. I'd just stay in my room, and if I didn't have food I wouldn't eat. I just wasn't hungry. Then, on other days, I'd stuff my face. It wasn't a good period in my life...

I'm sorry if I find this funny, I don't mean any offense. It's just that I feel exactly the same sometimes! There's a reason presentation is key when serving foods so that you have to "eat" with your eyes first and entice you. Often at home everything is served as is, so the food has to really smell good or you have to be really hungry to eat. Sometimes when the food doesn't look appealing I lose my appetite. Also when I watch a lot of TV shows, I forget to eat.

yah, I forgot to eat but not much. Sometime I forgot to eat when I'm so busy in something like design a webapge and like here responding discussion in mylot and much more when Im having fun and enjoying playing my XBOX and PSP. I know forgotten to eat will have a problem in our health in future. Like problem in stomach and ulcer. When I forgot to eat I usually do drink milk and not to eat oily food.

Nope I don't forget to eat. I can't do anything right if I'm very hungry so I need to eat. I think there's nothing wrong with you. I know some people like you that forget to eat when they are very busy usually playing online games. But I think you should not miss any meal. Its not healthy and may cause some sickness like ulcer.
