So, I eat breakfast now.

Since I switched to my current job I've taken to leaving early, so I arrive early, so I can hit a nearby breakfast spot to geat a snack and an oj before starting my day.

I've always been a huge proponent of oj before starting a work day. It helps you focus a lot.

But I've not always been a fan of breakfast. In highschool, it virtually didn't exist. In fact outside the US breakfast is not really a meal for the most part. I used to grab something to drink... trundle off to work... and wait for lunch.

But I find that when I'm kicking ass and taking names at work, I've got to eat breakfast, and lunch, and a hell of a dinner. It's like exercise... you need to eat if you are exercising. It's healthy.

So I find it's a welcomed part of my routine right now pretty much all around.




That being said, if you wanna lose weight, living off of popcorn dinners and relying on meeting buffets for lunch works. ( Remembering my early days meeting rent in NYC )

Curious what your thoughts are on breakfast as a meal... yay or nay?

nothing is wrong - what are you scared of?
I used to not eat breakfast either.. It would make me feel sick in the middle of the day usually.

When I was working and getting up at a decent hour, breakfast was pretty essential. So I would say if you have an active lifestyle and are busy most of the day it is important.

if I take my time and am not rushed, breakfast is tied with dinner for best meal of the day. Making your own hashbrowns with overeasy eggs, some fruit, and maybe some bacon or sausage is a beautiful thing.

Breakfast always! I'll rather miss class than not have breakfast.

Don't Let Your Walls Down
i love breakfast and usually make a point to eat breakfast everyday. though with my current work schedule, i'm not exactly hungry/in the mood to make anything at 4am so i don't eat breakfast T-R. if something other than mcdonalds and gas stations were open at 4am, i would probably eat it though.

I am not a robot...
I love breakfast foods (pancakes!!), but I rarely ration my time well enough to eat before leaving each morning.
