@dancinyogi it's kind of funny as you said 'the first meal of the day' which could be at 1pm, which makes it lunch for me, not breakfast.

That said, I answered :)

@dancinyogi I suppose 'breakfast' is the first meal of 3 larger meals during the day/evening... as a type 1 #diabetes person I do eat breakfast: bread and tea :-) around 8 or 9 or later, depending on work or days off...

orange juice, two medium poached eggs, sliced tomato.

@dancinyogi I don't need it, but I do enjoy it.

@dancinyogi Not always in the morning because my sleep schedule is awful, but always breakfast, yes. It's my favorite meal and breakfast food is my favorite category of nourishment. Plus I have to have something to protect my stomach from the coffee.

@dancinyogi always (by definition everyone who eats does) however in your context I have porridge most days and bread/toast on Sunday, with tea.

At 11am it's time for elevenses, usually a carrot or other vegetable, and more tea.

How can anyone skip breakfast? That's kind of strange...

@dancinyogi if "first meal of the day" is breakfast, then by definition i eat breakfast every day😎​

@dancinyogi @lisamelton I beg to differ. Coffee totally counts 🤷🏽‍♂️

If it's a work day, yes. If it is not, then usually no.

@dancinyogi breakfast is the most important food in a day, like fueling the car before road trip

@dancinyogi steel cut oats, blueberries, bananas, chia seeds and espresso. Every single morning

@dancinyogi wake, sup coffee, walk dogs, scoff 🍽 👍

@dancinyogi I used to not bother because I wasn’t hungry but now I know that I get terribly lethargic and am prone to terrible headaches if I don’t have some kind of adequate morning sustenance 🙃

Okay, but it’s unclear why a cup of joe and a small stale brownie I accidentally found in the fridge should count for more than a cup of joe alone.

I'm confused. The way you stated the question if someone doesn't eat anything until lunch they do eat "breakfast", and only the people who "eat" a meal of only coffee, tea, or juice first don't. Was this what you intended?

@dancinyogi A boiled egg, steel cut oats w/blueberries or maple syrup and cinnamon and half and half, and a cup of decaf. Or a boiled egg w/a pastry (or two) and a cup of decaf.

@dancinyogi Does yoghurt count as eating? (I'd think so)

mstrmustache, 8 months ago

@dancinyogi I use an entire protein shake instead of creamer in a LARGE coffee mug. It's definitely breakfast

Yes but usually around 4am as a middle of the night "woken up but need getting back to sleep" aid.

kentborg, 8 months ago

@dancinyogi But I didn't eat much, some volume, but few calories. Too early in the day for real food.

raphael_fl, 8 months ago

@dancinyogi I usually don't. Most of the time, I'm simply not that hungry in the first few hours after waking up.

jigmedatse, 8 months ago

@dancinyogi Though sometimes it's just tea/hot water because the beginning of the day just can't face eating food.

thomasbeagle, 8 months ago

@dancinyogi Oh god yes. Breakfast is one of my three favourite meals.

sidb, 8 months ago

@dancinyogi @lisamelton I do eat a first meal of the day. Not everyone’s day starts at some gross single-digit hour though.

thePurpleMonkey, 8 months ago

@dancinyogi If I don't eat a proper breakfast then I end up needing to eat lunch two hours earlier and that's just wildly inconvenient. I eat breakfast out of necessity to my schedule, not necessarily my health or diet.
