And when my foot heals in a week or so start jogging at least 4 times a week.
ehhh
we are genetically designed (oxymoron?) that way because from an evolutionary standpoint, the ability to store fat was always a tremendous ADVANTAGE. people would go through periods of feast and famine, like you brought up, and you'd want your body to store fat for future energy stores and NOT muscle. Muscle is a huge liability in feast and famine mode (easily recreated by eating 1 or 2 large meals a day, or less) because it burns so many calories and jacks up your metabolism.
hence, the universally accepted approach to eat many (6 seems to be a good number) small meals a day.
QFT
if you find yourself at 4pm having only eaten once, and you aren't getting home until 8, walking past a mcdonalds... you are better off ordering a value meal cheeseburger than skipping eating. 500 dirty cals better than 0 cals.
