I find this as true also. I can often do 12 hours just forgetting to eat lunch on time. Wife goes in early and gets off early so often we eat an early dinner and I just skip lunch anyway. Once the first or second hormone call (ghrelin?) passes. Once you skip that first or second call for scheduled feeding it not a thought nearly as much, in some like me it can be hard to get hungry again once that hormone isn't being dumped by our body. If you have a hard time getting started eating again after being sick you may be heavily sensitive to said hormone.
A family member who did some flying of small planes told me that local airport won't charge you to land (they get federal funds to offset those cost) but if for any reason you need to come to a complete stop for any length of time you have to tie down. Those tie downs are not cheap, add that to fuel hanger space maintenance and paperwork it's not cheap anymore.
There is always people in need of help who deserve it. When it's done by people and groups it builds community and people feel good about giving their money and time. When it's done by government via taxation it builds resentment in the taxed and entitlement in those receiving the help. If your family has been blessed with an ample income please consider making it a point to help those around you and your community who deserve it in some way on a regular basis.
Ghrelin I believe is the hormone for those interested.
