Welcome back, ankle_brains...we missed you.



I skip breakfast if I'm going to "skip."

I have coffee and I'm good to go. But, this morning I had fresh sauteed mushrooms and scrambled eggs and good sourdough bread lightly toasted...with fresh orange juice and coffee.

Wanna make a poll on that?

And I was just starting to feel like the Lounge actually had some worthwhile threads in it...

[Gankdawg]

None of them.

I don't skip any. I actually add meals to my day . I eat about 5-6 small meals a day.

I usually don't eat breakfast. I tend to get up with just enough time to shower and get where I'm going.

But if I wake up with enough time, I'll eat something. I tend to only eat twice a day no matter what, which is apparently not good for me... I think soul searching's method is technically the right way to eat.

I don't usually eat breakfast. I developed the habbit of not eating it back in high school. Every single day, my school served the most worthless crap food for breakfast: donuts, chocholate milk, funky pastries, etc... All sugar. It made me sick to load up on sugar that early, so I just stopped eating breakfast all together.

[RooneyX]

I only eat one light meal a day.

[ghost_flash]

Wait.

Change that "chicken" to "Fish".

Yup.

I normally eat breakfast. Got acid reflux, and it's been proven that breakfast gets the digestive system working a bit better during the day. And it does help keep things under control.

Normally I skip lunch 1-2 times a week. It's my weight loss program. Seems to be working. Eat a larger dinner those days.

Normally I invert lunch and dinner. Eat a big lunch, and visit the deli for dinner. Much better on the tummy. No big meal sitting there.


An interesting note is that inverting lunch/dinner helped me loose some weight:

Breakfast. Eat it every morning, not really hungry. Feel good after.

Lunch. Not to hungry, since I had breakfast, but eat a good meal (not to big), and all foodgroups. Leave feeling good/satisfied.

Dinner. Get a nice deli sandwich. Since I had a big lunch, I'm not to hungry. Feel good after.

Snack maybe a little later.

So I only eat 1 really "bad" meal. Breakfast I'll just go pretty light, and dinner isn't anything fancy. Just lunch. And because I'm full, I naturally control my dinner habits, and snacking.

By not letting myself get hungry. I stopped eating so much.

Strange... but it seriously works.

[Kenneth]

I don't skip any meal...

[ryju]

I usually skip breakfast, no time, and I'm not always funny RIGHT when I wake up.

[jonn804]

Dinner.... I eat breakfast as I need food when I get to work, lunch with my boss.. full at dinner time + I like beer at night.

[cacarr1]

I skip my 'last' meal every day. I do this because I live under the assumption that I will be alive tomorrow. I'm sure this will change someday in the future. Or if I'm ever on death row...

I never have breakfast. Half the time because I'm asleep and if I'm not, then to save money.

[Cipher13]

Never have breakfast, often don't have lunch.

[Silencer]

Breakfast and Lunch, I very rarely have breakfast maybe just a glass of juice on occasion, and I almost never ever have lunch, I'm usually out and when I am i'd rather spend my money on a new CD than a meal, even at home I usually don't eat lunch just out of habit.

[Luca Rescigno]

I only have breakfast about once or twice a week. I always eat lunch and dinner. Normally I sleep in and I can barely make it to my class in time. But when I do have breakfast it's worth it - I have everything the dorm cafeteria has to offer. Not great, but they sure have a good variety! Scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, mini omelettes, pancakes or waffles, fried potatoes, a big glass of orange juice, and I usually put some of the stuff on an English muffin or bagel just for good measure. I never go hungry if I can drag myself out of bed early enough!

[gadster]

Breakfast. Why? Because, I have neither the time nor the inclination to do any more than pour myself a schooner (or two) of Coola cordial at such an ungodly hour ( 8.45am).

So it's not often, it's always.

Breakfast? Breakfast is for wimps. Except for the weekends, where breakfast is lunch.

btw, anklebrains, you do work for a market research company, right? Shouldn't we be getting paid for this?

[Cubeoid]

lunch..usually on the way to work or working...that and I'm poor, so I don't want to buy food out.

[Cadaver]

Breakfast. Don't (or can't) wake up early enough to spend time eating and get to work on time.
Pretty pathetic, since I've got about a 5 minute drive to work!

[cenutrio]

Breakfast

Late

I think you mean pimps. Breakfast is for PIMPS. Actually, I just like breakfast food, especially in the evening .

[ghotirking]

I usually skip breakfast, with the exception of a cup of coffee and maybe a venti latte if my Starbuck's card is full up.
I have a terrible habit of sleeping as long as possible before I have to leave for work (that may also be directly related to my habit of staying UP as late as possible the night before).
I know all the 'traffic windows', how long it would take to get to work 3 different ways, etc.
I get up in just enough time to sh!t, shower and shave, then go to work.
Though, I did work at a call center once that had an awesome cook in the kitchen...he made corned beef hash and eggs that had people lining up around the corner to buy. I made sure to have $$ for breakfast on the days that was on the menu.

[spiky_dog]

back in school i used to skip breakfast regularly. now, in the working world, i skip lunch much more often.

why: in the school days i was on a meal plan, but needed sleep badly. now i'd rather go a bit hungry than pay $8 or $10 for lunch, since food is a significant money sink in my personal budget.

[brapper]

bump.
(i missed seeing 'topic starter: ankle_brains' whenever i came into the lounge...now to reload and feel that warm feeling inside again...)

[dampeoples]

I skip supper mostly, because I work at a prison and the food is...
