On the island, when do we eat? how much?

So let's set three meal times a day and make a rule of absolutely no snacking in between them.  Now, we need to work in the randomness of being able to successfully hunt or gather while we're on the island, so before bed at night (or first thing in the morning) we're going to roll a die and subtract one from the result to determine how many meal times to skip.

Roll:
1, skip no meals for the day
2, skip the breakfast meal
3, skip the breakfast and lunch meal
4, skip eating today
5, skip eating today and breakfast tomorrow
6, skip eating today and breakfast and lunch tomorrow

Okay, now the question of how should we eat and how much of it?   When we eat we need to make the meal it's own focus and do nothing else except enjoy the food and the company during the meal.  We should eat mindfully, paying attention to tastes and textures, chewing slowly and completely and putting the food down between bites.  Serve small plate portions and eat until satisfied not engorged.
