    I’d love it if I only needed to eat once a day and could focus on having that one meal be really good.

    OMAD (one meal a day) or intermittent fasting might be worth trying. There was a good while where I was restricting calories and only eating in the evenings, with a pretty decent morning gym session (60 min weight lifting + 30 min running), and it seemed to work well until COVID lockdowns messed up my routines. I was never hungry during the day unless I ate whatever random junk someone brought to the office.

      I’ve not heard of OMAD but I’ve known a few people for whom IF has worked really well. Whether it’s a blood sugar thing or something else I don’t know, but skipping meals really does not work for me (migraine trigger, among other things). I’d love to switch to a lunch-and-dinner-only meal schedule, but alas.
