I forget to eat meals a lot, well not a lot but it happens occasionally, but is that REALLY unhealthy? I mean my mom tells me to eat and I tell her I will but I just forgot... yah I know it sounds stupid but when I have so much stuff goin on I just forgot!

Skipping a meal can make u tired, dizzy, and cranky. Now if u want to be healthy and not eat alot, then drink A LOT of water and EXCERCISE so u can burn more than u consume. hope that helps!
