From what I've experienced, why is this form of controlling your intake so deeply frowned upon by the older generations?

I (25m) work in a warehouse and am the youngest by a margin, and whenever I bring up the fact I use IF to control calories, they go off on a rant about how I am starving myself and it'll only make me fat when I eat again, my muscle mass will fatigue and a whole cornucopia of other reasons why I'm wrong and hurting myself.It's like they think missing breakfast once means they will immediately die.My guess is that they spent their childhood being told breakfast, lunch and dinner is the correct way to eat, and never bothered to ask why. via /r/intermittentfasting https://ift.tt/3zrktDz https://ift.tt/eA8V8J
