That’s one reason we eat out so little - we fast 18-20 hours a day.
Same for me. It’s the other four to six hours of eating that are slowly killing me.
You can do a lot of damage in those hours. I use mouthwash between my meals so I don’t snack as much,
That's a good plan; I used to brush my teeth whenever I felt like snacking, and that would kill the urge.
That works too. It’s even better for your oral health, too. I also drink lots of water, warm in the winter.

I realize it's drifting from the topic at hand, but try eating pickles to stave off hunger.

That’s another good tip. Also, coffee.

Food is a small percentage of cost of living but has a big impact on health. Get high quality ingredients and make your own meals whenever possible. Don't fret over a few bucks.

True. I splurge a little on vegetables, because I’m happy to eat nice ones, and they do so much for you.
