What do you eat for Breakfast?

[Allan]

I find I don't have time when Parliament's sitting, since I get into work at 7:30. It sucks. But I'll often run across the road to McDonalds after 10, after the briefings are due.

I find having a big breakfast makes me raring to go and to face the day ahead. Plus, it gives me an option to eat a light lunch, which is always good when you're looking to lose that extra pounds.

I can't go hungry. I get cranky when I do so big breakfast for me is good as it keeps me from biting people's heads off throughout the morning as well.

[Dana]

Wow, first dinner, now breakfast. Soon you'll wanna know my shoesize, girth and eyecolor

Well, most days I have müsli with strawberry fil
When I'm at my parents I usually have toast, coffee and boiled eggs if I'm lucky

[Shaun]

I eat whatever I feel like in the morning. I don't understand how anyone can go out without eating in the morning, I can't concentrate if I am too hungry And there is always time, get up earlier

[Allan]

I'd rather go hungry than get up earlier. And I find it difficult to concentrate if I'm hungry too, but I can block it out if I really need to.

Caffeine also works as a great substitute for food.

[Dana]

When I worked at the hotel this past year I got up at 4.30-5 am every morning.. didn't have breakfast before going in because that's just way too early to eat. If I eat too early I end up getting sick instead

Caffeine is a lifesaver!!

[shred]

Doesn't caffeine burn a hole through your stomach if you just drink that first thing in the morning without anything else?

I don't drink coffee. If I'm only allowed a drink in the morning, it's always Milo for me - either hot or cold.

[Dana]

Milo?

Nope, have no problems with caffeine and my stomach. They always get along

[Shaun]

I have coffee before I have breakfast, I don't eat until after I have had a swim. But I still always have time to And I don't find that caffeine can substitute food.

[Dana]

You swim in coffee? *imagines Shaun as Garfield with snorkles coming out of the coffeecup*

Caffeine doesn't substitute but it's a good beginning.

Milo is basically a chocolate milk drink.

[Shaun]

No I don't swim in coffee, but it might help me wake up some mornings

Yes Dad

I would rather sleep a bit longer than worry about breakfast And i usually have something at about 10am when i go to the cafe for another coffee I don't get hungry very often. I certainly don't need to eat at definite times or anything.

Sounds tasty.. and looks like it too
I drank a swedish version of that for a while. I get these obsessions from time to time with drinks or food

Good, was getting worried here! Must have been very hard getting into and out of that cup every day

[shred]

I can't eat breakfast too early. That would screw up the timings for my other meals and make me eat more.

My ideal breakfast time is always 10am for me.

[buffymanic]

Same here really I find I can't eat until about 9 even if I'm up at 7! Pancakes were goooood this morning

ok what the hell is going on evertime I try to write co co puffs in my last post it comes up as frickin 'love puffs'!

I think it's because I used to call Glenn 'Glenn co co' and that made it 'Glenn my love'!

I'm not a huge fan of breakfast, but I usually eat it.

[Bre]

Today I had Cocoa Puffs and some mixed fruit. I always thought fruit is a perfect breakfast food, but I could never imagine eating veggies in the morning, like carrots? I know people who do, have both veggies and fruit for breakfast, I just think it's weird.

[Beck]

I can't eat early in the morning. And anyone who gets up at the crack of dawn, goes swimming or a run or whatever and then still eats really early is completely insane in my book Shaun People who go to the gym first thing in the morning also scare me

I can't eat chocolate things for brekkie either. I used to eat weetbix with chocolate sprinkling on it heated and mushy from the microwave :sick:

[Amber]

I could never be awake enough to exercise first thing in the morning.
