Except I am not advocating or glamorizing anything. I have no idea where you think "that path leads" or why you are equating having dinner every other day with having a disorder, anorexia of all things.
- ch4s3 4y agoLike I said, you should do what you think is right for you but I'm cautioning other people that only eating every other day is a classic sign of an eating disorder. Again, you may well be fine and getting enough calories I'm not judging you at all. Classically things like skipping meals and fasting aren't determinative of disordered eating by themselves, no one would say that fasting for religious purposes is a disorder but this kind of behavior in the right context can very quickly tip in a bad direction. I'm again not trying to say anything about YOU, only cautioning other folks here that the intermittent fasting trend among tech folks looks a lot like social trends among other populations that turned out to be very unhealthy and that people should be cautious.
