Why is 3 meals a day the goal? I thought the ‘breakfest is the most important meal of the day’ was just a commercial series. I usually don’t have time for breakfast and I don’t really feel like I’m missing anything.
The goal is having the possibility to eat three meals a day.
The article kinda conflicts the two. It talks about financial situation, but then it just asks “Do you eat three meals a day?”, and doesn’t ask you to clarify why. I for example can describe my financial situation as precarious, as they want me to do in the article, but it doesn’t mean I can’t afford food.
I was taught to eat four meals a day so you people talking about two or even one meal a day seems crazy
Raised on a farm? Mom had that where they’d do breakfast, lunch, dinner, and supper. But they were working off a whole lot more calories than I am.
I like the summary on Wikipedia:
Present professional opinion is largely in favor of eating breakfast,[62] but skipping breakfast might be better than eating unhealthy foods.[71]
I.e. you should eat breakfast, if possible, but not any product sold as a breakfast product.
Well yeah. If I sit at home on Sunday playing videogames, I’m OK eating once a day and maybe having some snacks. If I bike to the mountains, I eat my weight in food. If I work intensively, I might have three meals a day, but sometimes I’m OK with two and a coffee with croissant for breakfast even then.
You seem to paint it like it’s some kind of a bad thingidk about everyone else but my solution to shit finances isn’t eating less, it’s making half my diet potatoes and onions…
i generally find statistics like these to be nothing more than ragebait.
3 meals a day was never normal for me
