Best meal of the day!

I’m a breakfast person. I wake up hungry. I can’t function properly without a good breakfast inside me. When I worked, I used to feel quite shaky inside until I had my bacon and egg teacake devoured. For me its the most important meal of the day, but over my lifetime, I have noted that we all  seem to be divided into two distinctive groups, the ‘must eat a breakfast’ types and those who simply can’t seem to stomach anything to eat much before lunch time. K is not particularly bothered about breakfast. She will eat one if you are doing a cooked breakfast, but otherwise she isn’t bothered.

Yet she will gladly still be eating at nightime whereas I don’t want to eat much after about 17.00pm.  I am not a supper person. Those who aren’t bothered about breakfast tend to eat later in the day than I do. In fact I can skip eating at all after lunchtime but breakfast is a must. What type of eater are you? Can you miss breakfast out and if so, are you a supper person?  Or are you like me, waking up in the morning ravenous but not so bothered about eating later in the day?

  1. I am with you on this, TG. Coffee, cigarette and breakfast in quick succession are total musts for a productive morning.

  2. Well, I have two of those but miss out the cigarette. Stopped smoking over twenty years ago.

  3. Tea only for me. I eat most of my junk after 11am.

  4. I can take or leave breakfast. It depends on the mood and the meal for me each day. Today breakfast is pretty much coffee so lunch will no doubt be a bigger thing...we shall see.

  5. I need the breakfast too. But I'm a zombie in the morning until I have coffee since I work swing shift.

  6. TG, yes for me it's breakfast too. Even when we are travelling it's our favorite meal and we often skip a lunch and then go straight to dinner.

  7. But we are all either/or aren't we? Do all of you who don't want a breakfast eat at supper time?

  8. I have always had breakfast, usually toast, or cereal, these days a small amount of cereal and a slice of toast. I am on steroids, and if anyone else is on the same ones, they will know that they increase appetite. Plus I take a lot of other meds first thing in the morning, some of which have to be taken with food. I am hungry every couple of hours, and take in a few carbs between meals or else I get a bit squiffy, and the longer I leave it to eat properly, the squiffier and more nauseous I get. I don't eat supper, just a couple of biccies with my bedtime cuppa.
    Well, you did ask!!!

  9. I tend to eat some nasty gravelly muesli rubbish in the week, and bacon on weekends.

    I must say that one of my breakfast treats is when on holiday. I love a big bowl of spicy beef noodle soup (Pho Bo), a cold beer and a newspaper first thing in the morning!

    That usually takes me through to lunchtime!
