Well, yes, metabolism is a factor. I'm not your doctor, so I can't say as to what is necessarily healthy for you, but it's probably worth noting that you aren't hungry, meaning your body isn't in starvation mode.
Fine. Allow me to elaborate: yes it is more important for diabetics to not fast. However, the spikes in blood sugar that come with irregular or infrequent meals can be damaging to anybody.
Because of my dad. I learned a lot about calorie restrictions and specialized diets because he was a Type I diabetic, and one of the things doctors drummed into us is how steady consumption was important.
That's very bad advice. Fasting is always a bad idea if you're trying to lose weight You're supposed to eat more smaller meals of nuts, fruits, vegetables and lean meats / fish a day: having smaller portions more frequently allows the body to process the food more efficiently and reduces hunger pains. In fuggs' case, short term damage to her diet can potentially be achieved by keeping to small portions of the available food. Never ever skip a meal; that's only for vagrants who can't afford to eat the proper meal.
