I still like my 3 meals a day, I can't skip breakfast, as I take some pills with it. I am always hungry for lunch. However, one change is that when I was working, dinner tended to be the main meal, now I eat more at the other two meals, & dinner can be quite small.
Not quite for me, though. Since I retired, I tried to keep the same regimen (three square) I had while working, but I just don't have the drive to cook/buy food. I have lost 14 lbs in the last 8 months, I work harder, and have less time for sitting. Still feel great, though. I don't know if this is a trend, or a change, but whatever it is, it doesn't bother me. Hope I can get down another 40lbs, like I was in college.
That is why the Europeans hate each other and having been killing each other for thousands of years. It is that late dinner and lack of food during the day that makes them cranky.
You might be onto something there. The Swiss stay neutral because they have chocolate.
Congrats! Working toward a 125 weight goal myself! Ideal for 5'7". You give me hope and motivation!
I think older people need to be careful not to get too thin. We don’t know when we might need to draw on some extra reserves. I’m recovering from a knee replacement right now, and I’m not eating as well as I do when I’m shopping/cooking.

That is what my mom's doctor said. Older people need to have a reserve of fat - not a lot though.

I think this is so true, my mother was a skeleton when she passed, was just not eating for several years before she passed. She had scoliosis and any extra weight hurt her back but she took it to extremes. Last three weeks she refused any food at all, I think she committed suicide, sort of...
Honestly, I'd probably eat out a lot less. I have a 35 minute commute each way. I have a busy life and am on the go a lot. It's hard to cook when you're in 8-5 corporate life.
Europeans generally only have coffee for breakfast, but they do eat a late dinner. I also eat late.
We have been to different European countries a number of times and see many people eat breakfast. All the B&Bs which we stayed with served huge breakfasts. In our travel, we absolutely loved Irish, British and New Zealand's hearty full breakfasts which usually lasted us until 2 p.m.
I did a quick search on Europerans' breakfasts and could not find any articles stating that they only have coffee for breakfast!
