A couple of years ago, I was working way too much and I lost the habit of eating lunch. It turns out I don’t miss it that much. I just dont eat a meal, sometimes maybe a handful of chickpeas or something if I feel like I need the energy. I lost about 45 lbs through this somewhat accidental intermittent fasting.
I have to wonder how much money I have saved by skipping one meal a day for years.
Okay, I’ll bite. How would that work? My bank account is just a string of numbers. It doesnt have a way to tell me how much I didnt spend on 3 years of hypothetical lunches. I buy all my groceries for our meals all at once, not through separate accounts for breakfast, “what would have been lunch,” and supper.

I definitely need that meal to have energy to work
Can’t you just check your bank account?

What the hell was the point of your original question 😂
As I suspected, it was just a play on “saved” as if I didnt go spend that same money on groceries and clothing for my kids.
edit: Actually makes me wonder if u/raindog is german or austrian. Reminds me of their sense of “humor”.
I suppose you could figure out an average meal price then multiply that by however many days
