Mark Zuckerberg skips meals, his parents wonder if they should send food over

You could be the biggest name in technology, but if you're skipping meals, it's not going to go down well with the parents. Mark Zuckerberg found himself at the same spot when he took to his Facebook account to share that working on the social network's new range of products had made him lose track of time, and meals.

"Do you ever get so excited about what you're working on that you forget to eat meals?," the 36-year-old tech founder posted on his official account.

He followed it up by sharing that he had lost 10 pounds as a result of this.


"Keeps happening. I think I've lost 10 pounds in the last month from this, but our new products are going to be (fire emoji)," the billionaire wrote.

Among the 214K comments that his post reached, one that stood out was from his dad Edward Zuckerberg, who in typical parent manner, wrote, "Do you need Mom and I to deliver meals?"

Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg replied to the post with something her father would say.

"No. As my father said to me a long time ago, the only thing he never has to write down to remember is to eat," the 'Lean In' author wrote.
