Is only eating once a day really a bad thing? LIke can i get sick or something?
W/ working a 2nd job. I only get to eat once during the day. Normally a bagel about 10-11 am and thats all i eat. I get home about 11 and am not hungry so i just go right to bed.
No biggie right?

since you just started the 2 job thing maybe your not hungry from all the overwhellment, but i think that will change. (thats how i use to be in the begining to) and you should try to eat atleast 2 meals, you'll need the energy. You have to stay healthy.

I guess it's not bad as long as your not hungry, dont deprive yourself of food... however it will slow down your metabolism.

you really should eat more to keep your metabolism going. believe it or not, not eating will not keep you skinny forever. if you eat many small meals during the day, you can keep your metabolism going. try to munch on some carrots or fruit during the day.

I think it's a very big deal! Eventually your schedule will even itself out and you will go back to a normal eating schedule. If your body isnt used to this, what is considered a 'normal' amount of food might make you gain weight since you're not used to it.
I dont know how people eat only once a day and say they aren't hungry. I'm almost always hungry!

Re: Question about eating...
its actually really bad for you...its better to have a lot of small meals every two hours than one meal a day. When you don't eat all day your metabolism slows down b/c it has no energy, that's why your gaining weight.
Like the others have said, put small snacks in your bag and have something small at least every 2 - 3 hours.

you have to have the energy to keep going...at least eat a zone bar or granlola bar or bring those 100 calorie snacks...it's not healty you have to eat!! bring little snacks with you.you need your iron, calcium, carbs, through out the day. You are probably just so crazy right now your forgetting to eat.

Definitely a bad thing...pack portable snakcks and take them with you. As a teacher I get my one lunch period to eat and thats really it..so I bring tons things for me to snack on during the day. After school i teach private lessons so i ahve to keep those snacks going! YOu HAVE to eat...pack an apple or a string cheese for some protein...veggies are good to have...zone bars are a great way to have a minimeal too.

It is a bad thing.. you have to be concerned about your blood sugar drastically dropping you should bring snacks with you and you are really slowing down your metabolism.

Re: Question about eating...
I think it is bad... if you are only eating once your metabolism isnt working...so when you do eat your body will just store all the fat because it thinks it is starving from only eating once. Plus I am sure you are not getting all the vitamins and good stuff from just one meal. Your schedule sounds CRAZY!! Try to get those meal replacement bars or something or just pack some food with you.

Yes its definately a bad bad thing! I agree your metabolism will slowly start slowing down. Try at least drinking something like water or diet drinks since it will keep up your metabolism.

Not good. Bad. you are only consuming about 500 calories a day and that can take a toll on your body. When you are working that long and your body has nothing to nourish itself on you can do major damage (i was 3 months left to becomming a nutritionist then had to leave college because of fh job so ive seen the worst) It can cause liver kidney and intestional damage. Not good. Have you lost alot of weight so far?
