Hello,
You have been skipping breakfast or lunch on weekdays. Presently, you are experiencing stomach cramps that are causing you to get restless and uncomfortable. Do not skip meals. It will cause stomach acid thus triggering stomach cramps. Avoid alcohol, smoking, spicy food instead take home made fresh nutritious food. You are suggested to take antacids and PPIs if needed as they can reduce discomfort.
Avoid constipation, take laxatives if needed. Other medical conditions that can cause such symptoms are appendicitis, peptic or esophageal ulcer, food poisoning, gastroenteritis, IBS, etc. You are suggested to get clinically examined by a GP to detect pathology causing you symptoms. Get treated at the earliest. Stay away from addictions if any. Avoid stress, both physical and emotional.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
