Skip Eating Meals for Better Productivity

We had dual income for a few years, but only a few. Like 2006 - 2008. Outside of that have always been single income.

My wife hates this. I don't generally eat lunch during the work day. 80% of the time I just forget about it and work through it.
Same, and my wife hates it too.
I skipped the wife and it's turned out ok so far.
I am jealous of the dual income though.
I have a wife, and I'm still jealous of the dual income folks, lol.
You're doing it wrong...

I leave work to be by myself during lunch, even if I only drink a bottle of Soylent. Removing myself for some alone time really helps me out.
Soylent, bourbon... same difference.

It's incredibly important that I get my arse out of the building for an hour as well

Exactly. No matter what, I'm gonna go away from my desk for an hour every day. Even if I just sit in my car and nap, I get out for a while every day. No exceptions.

I'm on a huge foodie change at the moment.
The biggest change I've made is, getting up earlier, having a substantial breakfast and I already feel way better have 3 weeks of that, more awake/energetic during the day, more productive.
I'm the opposite. Breakfast makes me tired all day. And hungry too, so much more hungry when I eat breakfast.
Breakfast kickstarts metabolism, no matter what it is, so the hunger is natural. Sugary breakfast makes me instantly tired and hungry, but fiber, protein, and carbs will carry me through lunch. Breakfast should be a good 400 calories to really count.

Donner Pass is 30 minutes-ish from me so never too soon.

Someone needs to hack that metabolism-thingy. Or maybe remove it from the repo.

I do this unconsciously and will go even without bathroom breaks when I'm on a roll. My brain just seems to shut off all unnecessary facilities until my brain is exhausted or my body is screaming for attention.
Ditto - and it's not just when working but also when playing. 10 hours without eating if I'm having to much fun at something is not unusual for me.

i used to play MTG at lunch and several other CCGs as well - but those friends aren't available any more so it withered and died.

My friend and I play x-wing at lunch every couple of days. It's rare but always fun.
