Answering that is a very long and fascinating deep dive in human biology with plenty of unknowns. I wouldn't even try to summarise as I myself am nowhere near knowledgeable enough on the topic. For myself, I've noticed that maintaining a calorie deficit is simply easier if it's a regular meal and then no meal than if it's two half meals.
- nsxwolf 3y agoI can go for days without eating and not think about it too much - but as soon as I start eating, I become obsessed with food and cannot stop. So if I just eat dinner, there's not enough time left in the day to overeat. That's why it works for me.

- p_l 3y agoReduction of meal count definitely helps in maintaining caloric deficit, and even more if like me, you're insulin-resistant. Trying to do classic '5 meals a day', no matter their size, ensured I'd end up with completely out of whack blood sugar driving me into cravings that ensured there was no weight loss, but weight gain.
