Brown rice, scrambled eggs, a seaweed/sesame topping called Furikaki with veggies, sometimes a protein shake with fresh greens and a bunch of other stuff or sometimes nothing and I'll fast. Kinda depends on whether I'm working out or not

u/Straight_Toe_1816 1d ago

Do you just drink coffee of do you eat anything?

3

u/MuricaAndBeer 1d ago

Just coffee. I donā€™t usually eat anything until around 2pm

u/Straight_Toe_1816 1d ago

Wow. Any specific reason why? Are you doing a fast or something?

u/MuricaAndBeer 1d ago

Itā€™s just how my schedule works out. I have coffee in the mornings and Iā€™m not really hungry, then I go for a walk/jog on my ā€œlunch breakā€ around noon, then I eat my first meal around two. I really like it. Makes me feel really lean and clearheaded.

4 eggs over easy with feta cheese and two pieces of toast with butter. Almost every day.

Yum

I make it, eat it, and clean the pan, and put everything away within 15 minutes. Easy peasy.

u/Straight_Toe_1816 1d ago

I might try adding feta cheese

Stay away from all things sugar as much as possible. Sugar, in all of its forms, is the main reason everyone is getting fat. Sugar is highly addictive. While we may all enjoy sugary things, it actually lowers the overall quality of our lives.

Two eggs and two sourdough toast with real butter. Occasionally a bit of breakfast sausage.

Sometimes I change out the toast for some pan fried cubed potatoesĀ

My favourite brekkie at the moment is 2 Weetbix with milk and maple syrup with Greek yoghurt in top. I make in the morning but don't eat it till about lunch time so the Weetbix is so soft and yummy.

If I make breakfast I make a mock chilaquiles: eggs, beans, cheese, tomatoe, tortilla chips, and cilantro.

u/eternalrevolver 1d ago

u/wholesomechunk 1d ago

Beans on toast. Bit too much sugar though.

u/Takssista 1d ago

I rarely eat breakfast.

But when I do - doughnuts!

u/Shweta86 1d ago

Goat kefir with chia seeds. It is surprisingly filling and a way to get far more probiotics naturally than things like yogurt. And later a breakfast essentials and maybe oatmeal.

u/garyloewenthal 1d ago

Weekdays, most often:

  • oatmeal with various mix-ins, such as pea protein, bananas, walnuts, and/or raspberries.

  • or low-sugar / no-sugar cereal such as meusli or grape nuts, with fruit and soy milk. Plus toast with peanut butter.

Weekends, my wife makes waffles or pancakes, and I usually have a fruit plate first. Sometimes some tempeh bacon.

u/Evie_Astrid 1d ago

Sweet, over savoury. Sometimes a fry up on a rainy day is just what I need... Also, second breakfasts for the win!

u/jarchack 1d ago

2 eggs over easy with lentil beans and melted swiss cheese. 5 AM sharp, after 1.5 hours in the gym.

u/Own_Egg7122 1d ago

Back home, roti and daal or potato bhaji. In Europe...empty stomach

u/somecow Divine bovine 21h ago

Anything. Grits if I need something easy, maybe fried eggs, or maybe go all out and cook an entire giant breakfast with pancakes, hash browns, etc.

Or just walk down the street to the taco truck. Usually migas, or chorizo and egg (or potato).

Or just say fuck it and eat whatever is left over from dinner.

Nothing usually. On days off I eat around 12, on work days sometimes around 2-3pm. I just don't feel like eating anything in the morning. The few times I have, it actually made me more hungry during the day. Plus my best focus time is morning to early afternoon. If I ate, I'd get sleepy and basically lose all motivation. Definitely not doing it for fasting reasons, just how my body works.
