Hope no one minds my resurrecting an old thread, but I had to laugh (in recognition) when I read this quote. Eating makes me hungry too!

Eating also makes me tired. I have a friend my age (60’ish) who visibly wilts a couple hours after breakfast but perks up 30 minutes into lunch. I start out energetic without breakfast and need a nap after lunch. We are all so different.

I wonder whether there is truth in the notion that our bodies respond best when we change something in our eating pattern. Unrelated to age or circumstances...maybe our bodies just adapt to whatever we’ve been doing and need something different occasionally in order to thrive. For now, intermittent fasting feels best for me (based on energy and hunger), but I’ve been a successful nibbler in the past. The experiment goes on...
