My question is this, I don't want to provoke the starvation response by not eating, BUT my only options are in the vending machine so which is better:

Not eat but feel hungry for the next 5-6 hrs? (will cause the body to feed on muscle instead of fat)

or

Eat cr*p from the vending machine?

BTW - I opted for a snickers from the machine

Just curious on other peoples thought/opinions.
As a general rule I always make sure I never feel hungry, but without over eating.
Take food prepared the night before with you to work, or use a meal replacement.....
