What does it taste like?

[–] figjam@midwest.social 8 points 1 day ago

Coffee and meds. Peanut butter toast if I'm feeling naughty

This, I don't have time for breakfast almost any day of the week, including weekends.

[–] otter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 day ago

What's "breakfast", precious?

[–] SapienX@lemmy.wtf 1 points 1 day ago

A white Monster. I'm not proud of it.

[–] Jeffool@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Usually nothing. Occasionally a few eggs with a little cheese in a microwave omelette.

[–] Texas_Hangover@lemmy.radio 7 points 2 days ago (1 children)
[–] Crashumbc@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Coffee, banana, oatmeal, sometimes omelette and bacon.

[–] Stowaway@midwest.social 2 points 1 day ago

Today for breakfast I ate chexmix, at around 2pm.

[–] Psythik@lemmy.world 12 points 2 days ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Nothing. Last thing on my mind in the morning is food.

Appetite usually kicks in the late afternoon/early evening, when I have my first and usually only meal.

[–] Raiderkev@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago

Same. Every now and then around 10 I'll go ape on a proper eggs n bacon or sausage type meal, but 6/7 days I don't eat til like noon -2:00 p

[–] CptOblivius@lemmy.world 14 points 2 days ago

3 cups of coffee. Unless it's 4.

[–] sturmblast@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

2-3 Eggs, a Sauage of some kind or bacon on on rare occasion, and a fruit smoothie usually. That's been my thing for the past 15 years or so. If it has to be quick I do oatmeal with peanut butter and fruit.

Nothing, or very little. Today I had a piece of white bread and cut of cheddar cheese before I went to work. The bread pairs well with Prozac and other anti-depressants.

[–] CaptSatelliteJack@lemy.lol 14 points 2 days ago (4 children)

I am genuinely floored by how many people here are claiming to actually eat breakfast. Tf is all the chia pudding bananas toast eggs shit??? For me, and everyone I know, breakfast is a special occasion for days off. My wife and I make breakfast maybe 10 times a year. I've always heard Lemmy's average age is on the higher end, and this thread has confirmed it for me.

[–] chunes@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

Uh... you're shocked that people eat breakfast? That's so insane to me

[–] oascany@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Well I mean you put oats in a jar overnight and take them to work or school in the morning. Easier still is keeping instant oats at work if you can. Breakfast is important man idk about skipping it everyday.

Anxiety and despair

[–] hardcoreufo@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

On work days. Coffee and a banana when i wake up. Some oatmeal a bit later. On non work days, nothing.

If I have time, espresso + avocado toast with adobo & chili flakes, topped with a fried egg.

Otherwise, just a coffee.

[–] oh_@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Coffee, coffee, toasted English muffin with peanut butter and banana during the week. On weekends eggs n such.

[–] rockstarmode@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Weekdays: 5g psyllium husk, 5g creatine, 30g whey protein, double Turkish coffee, 1 liter of water.

Weekends: 3 thick cut slices of bacon, small potato grated and fried into hash browns, 2 eggs sunny side up, pour over coffee, in addition to the weekday supplements.

My wife eats oatmeal or a French omelette during the week, which I make. And something more hearty on the weekend, depending on her workout schedule.

[–] Serpent@feddit.uk 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

What is the psyllium husk for?

[–] rockstarmode@lemmy.world 1 points 20 hours ago* (last edited 20 hours ago)

It's a fiber supplement, helps stuff move along and kind of fends off hunger until lunch since I'm fasting (except for the protein powder) 18 hours every weekday.

Always coffee. It's about a 50/50 split between yogurt bowls prepped the night before with cacao nibs, bananas, some other fruit, walnuts, some natural peanut butter and a little real maple syrup. If not that then we will have eggs (from backyard chickens) and toast.

On the weekends we will make pancakes or breakfast tacos (normal go to is bacon and egg, but really like potato, tomato, onion, egg, and cheese).

[–] FerretyFever0@fedia.io 59 points 3 days ago (3 children)

I don't eat. I run on thoughts, prayers, and the power of friendship.

I have to have a protein focused breakfast, so usually some form of eggs. I have a lot of crustless quiches, scrambled eggs, omelets. Good thing I like them so much!

If I ever develop an egg allergy I am completely fucked lol

[–] Alteon@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Yeah, we got chickens just to support my egg addiction. I make a soft scramble pretty much every single morning.

[–] mmmac@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 day ago

I've been intermittent fasting recently so breakfast isn't till around noon, but it'll either be 3 eggs, turkey bacon and an avocado, overnight oats that I'll prep, or Greek yoghurt with berries chia seeds and nuts, or a blended fruit smoothie with some whey protein depending on what I'm feeling for the day
