Yes, I forget to eat, especially if I am getting caught up in one of my special interests. I will look up at the clock, realise I have missed lunchtime, and think "oh well, I'll just have an early dinner". Then I'll miss dinner time too, and end up going to bed without eating.
When I moved in with my husband and he actually started putting food in front of me three times a day I put on about 20lb / 10kg.
I do the exact same thing, and I've noticed that I am already 40 pounds lighter after being single for a year now. When I was married I didn't eat unless he reminded me to cook when it was my night and I was caught up in a special interest or he cooked. I would sometimes have to set an alarm on my cell phone to remind me to start dinner if he was still at work, and even when it was made, I would still skip it sometimes because I had lost my appetite while having to deal with the overwhelming smells from cooking the meal for an hour or two.
