Explanation:

You can see the phrase is not a complete sentence, but it can work in this statement.

The first phrase sometimes appears as an emulation of speech. The word "do" is unstressed and can become very reduced, especially if the speaker is talking fast, or is angry.

Listening to myself speaking fast, I might say '...times d'I have..." or even '... times 'I have ...". The "do" can be reduced almost to nothing. It seems that to create this effect of rushed, angry speech some writers are omitting the word "do". It is a speech effect, not correct grammar.

A learner should use the form with "do", as omitting it is a grammar error, except as noted above where it is used as a clause instead of a standalone question.
