    You might have type 1 diabetes.

    Skipping a meal shouldn’t give you shakes.

      I see you haven’t experienced “doing something with tunnel vision for 16 hours before realising that you’re shaking because you forgot to eat and that your last meal was dinner yesterday around 26 hours ago”. I don’t think you need the beetus to experience that.

        One time I “forgot” to get out of bed, because I was just “one more game” from the moment i woke up. Finally caved to go to the toilet and get some breakfast. 1am.

        It might surprise you (pleasantly or horrifically lol) to learn that there’s a large group of people specifically doing one meal a day (referred to as OMAD) as a form of hardcore intermediate fasting.

        That being said, they make sure they get the proper amount of calories/macros in for this (they’re not just eating a slice of bread and butter), so I understand that you’re not referring to this style of eating.

        Still wanted to bring it up though. Wild stuff.

          Sounds like the easiest way to count your calories and macros. Plus saves you time during the day. Is it good for you though?

            It’s yet another type of intermittent fasting. I bet it’s good for some people, but honestly: if you have access to affordable nutritionists: ask one and see if it would be good for your body type.
