Do you ever forget to eat?

Contributor: PropertyOfPotter PropertyOfPotter
With three kids to feed, sometimes it's hard to remember if I only fed them or if food went into my mouth too!

All the time. Most of the time I just lose track of time then realize my mom is making food so I just wait for her to finish.

I do this a lot, especially when I'm at work without a specified time for my break. I just get too caught up in what I'm doing and forget to stop and eat my lunch.

I don't have that problem as much at home though. When I'm off work, I tend to graze all day on whatever food is handy. Either way, I'm terrible at sitting down for an actual meal unless we go out to dinner or something.

Yes, it happens on nearly a daily basis. I just get so focused into what I'm doing that I'm hauled into a trance like state and I just clean forget to eat a thing.

used to happen all of the time. i've figured it out now. turns out i have to eat breakfast or i freak out. if i don't eat and have coffee...it's a wild ride. took a while to figure it out...but, now i force myself to eat when i get it. it's just something that has to be done. it still happens once in a while that i look at the clock and it's 5pm, and i haven't eaten yet. i feel fine at the time, but i know the clock is ticking, and i find something to eat as soon as possible. the light-headedness hits quick, and sometimes puts me right no the floor if i'm not careful. good times. eat breakfast. your life will be better for it. and start carrying granola/nutri grain bars of some kind around with you.

I just don't have time during the day. So seriously, I only eat about once a day now.

Yea I can go through a good couple of days where I forgot to eat most of the day until I see the time.
But then I tend to go through a week where my body is hungry all the time, almost like it's angry at me for neglecting to give it food XD
Luckily it isn't like that while I'm up at college and usually happens during my breaks at home.

It's weird, because I'll be very hungry in the morning and then I get busy and completely forget that I was supposed to have lunch!

If I'm really busy I probably wont eat a full meal all day. I am hypoglycemic so i have to buy a snack like trail mix or crackers so I don't get dizzy.

I WISH I could! Everyone else around me is able to ignore food and forget to eat, so I try to keep my over-eater mouth shut and go along with them.
