One time I skipped Breakfast(something that I rarely do, but circumstances happen sometimes) and there was a chaotic day that I did not have lunch until really late in the afternoon. Therefore, I would have to say it was a good eighteen or nineteen hours in between meals. That is a long time not to eat anything and I was in quite a bad mood that day. What is the longest you've gone between meals? Looking forward to reading your responses.

Wow, a long time, an entire day for sure. Still, if there was no ability to eat, like parents being out of town, there is really not much that you can do. Thank you for your response. It is much appreciated and it contributed to the topic well. Have a nice day and thanks.

I started skipping breakfast from senior school. In my university, I had my lunch at 11:00am and supper at 5:00pm because they were the beginning of our dining hall's business time so I could have fresh food. That's 18 hours between meals. But usually I had some snacks during the 18 hours.

Yeah, if I could ever grab onto something to eat, even if it was a candy bar, at least it was something. A snack just to somehow push me through a lot of the time, Thank you for your response. It is much appreciated and it contributed to the topic well. Have a nice day and thanks.

Well, to cope with a busy schedule I usually skip breakfast to allow more time in between tasks. While this isn't reccomended it helps me find time in the day. THe problem with this is because I usually have dinner at around 7 ish. This means that there is a good 17 hours to noon (when i eat lunch). But in response to your question I have gone at least a day between meals and I tell you it really does suck.
