    2 pints of water.

    This, then coffee in the car and fruit in work, today being two bananas and an apple.

    Was never a big breakie person especially in a rush out the door in the morning.

    Better on weekends when I can do bring like pancakes or fry or smoked salmon, poached egg and brown bread etc..

    I love weekends.

    I don't eat breakfast

    I used to do this but looking back, I don't know how I managed. Are you not starving as the day goes by? Also at that time I was pretty overweight! Not saying there's a correlation but maybe by skipping breakfast I was piling on the food for the rest of the day.

    Nowadays I try to keep it filling but simple. Past few mornings, it's been two yogurts and some fruit (banana usually).

    I was running late had coffee and one of those "shots" of dried fruit and seeds. I'll be cranky in about an hour.

    A strong cup of joe and 3 slices of toast, followed by some sort of vitiman that says 'For Man' on the packaging and a glass of distilled water.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,400 ✭✭✭Medusa22


    Two slices of toast, bit of flora light (I know this will enrage the hardcore butterists in our midst, that butter thread got vicious) and a soft boiled egg.

    In UK, we always used Clover - couldn't always get it here. So now its Kerrygold or nothing.

    Or if I'm feeling really healthy a spread of beef dripping. YUM :)


  • Posts: 50,630 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    I just don't understand why you'd eat flora light? Like what's the reasoning behind it? Now that's yock.

    Pretty much, but free of loads of sh*te that you'd drink in tap or bottled water. You should see the mank/yock that we clean out of the distiller after use.

    My father was told to eat Flora Light by the doctor because he was told that butter was going to cause cholesterol problems that would kill him.

    Turns out it was a rare f*cking horrible scummy c*nt of a disease that got him instead.

    Chiles Rellenos Strata with Chorizo...

    Basically a fluffy egg casserole seasoned with smoked paprika, a little cayenne, melted pepper-jack cheese & smoky green chillies, layer with thinly sliced Chorizo & washed down with a pot of strong, black Java.

    Made the night before, bung it in the oven for the next morning & cook while performing daily ablutions.

    Nah, usually get hungry at about 1 and go for lunch soon after then dinner when I get home about 6.30. Cup of tea usually does me till lunch.

    Since Christmas I've been eating a lot of fruit throughout the day, I presume I'll be back to not eating till 1 soon enough though

    Subway bacon/egg/cheese sandwich with lettuce, peppers, sweetcorn and barbecue sauce this morning. Lovely jubbly.

    I'll eat anything that's low in fat, even if it's full of artificial crap or chock full of aspartame like sweeteners and diet coke. It's all about the weight loss for me, not about health :pac:

    I think I'll just settle for my good ole' wa porridge with honey and, maybe strawberries or bananas.
    (Bananas look extremely decayed, I'll have to stick with the berries).
    Oh, and can't forget my new addiction for the morning, toast with low fat butter.

    (P.S. No, but I'm serious about the addiction ladies and lads. I think I'll have all of the locals tescos bread scarfed down before the weeks over. Pls Help!!)
    :-)
    *Well look at that, such a rebel. Typing ladies and lads instead of lads and lassies. Some one must of replaced my mineral water with red bull this morning.)

    Low-fat stuff is full of sugar, which is even more fattening and comes with extra type-II diabetes. Calories cause weight gain, not "fat". Embrace the fat, young Skywalker. :D

    I don't do breakfast unless on holidays. Not my thing.

    Yeah I always wonder about people who chose the "low fat" option like low fat yogurt etc.. It still has calories!

    Calories is what you're looking for if you're looking to lose weight.

    Full fat Coke to Diet Coke. Or better still water.

    Reduce or get rid of take aways, alcohol, chocolate and crisps and excercise more or some.

    Thankfully I'm not so off to mc Donald's for me and then home to sit in front of the box.

    I was in McDonalds last night. Got meself a small fries (chips in McDonalds have a ridiculous amount of calories BTW - it's the chips rather than the big mac that you've to really watch for!). Brought them home and covered them in homemade chilli and some grated cheese.

    Bloody fantastic they were.

    My avocado wasn't ripe either this morning :(

    I have chilli for lunch and no pretend guacamole. Is so sad :'(

    Is your 'avocado not being ripe' a euphemism :confused:

    My avocado is ripe, and that is a euphemism, and I'm a guy.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,417 ✭✭✭ToddyDoody


    I think we've had this one before?

    Porridge, yoghurt, coffee, juice sometimes made while only 10% awake.

    I'm going to have French toast with Nutella tomorrow. Bit of banana aswell. I can't wait. I'll tell ye all about it again in the morning. I love breakfast. This thread makes me happy. :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,795 ✭✭✭Hande hoche!


    Usually eggs and some variety of meat. Find that cereal has me ravenous by about Eleven.

    I've a huge believer that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. I'm an early riser, and a good breakfast is the bedrock on which the rest of the day can be built.

    My famous Aongus's Mean Green Juice Machine is ever present. It's a green apple, baby spinach, kale, cucumber, lime, avocado, celery, ginger and seaweed combo. That's first thing. I've made the preparation and consumption of this a mindful activity. Creating and drinking this wonderful potion is something that I do with a sense of awareness and loving kindness towards myself.

    I'll then go for some exercise to really kick start the body and get the brain juices flowing. Once I've showered, groomed and dressed I'll prepare my main breakfast.

    This will always have really good coffee and current affairs radio on the menu. The current affairs radio will be from Germany or Ireland. The coffee will always be German and from a local artisan cafe whose breakfast blend I absolutely adore.

    I might have a poached egg, grilled tomato and a slice of wholemeal bread. A kipper with poached egg. A slice of home cooked ham with some cottage cheese and a slice of pumpernickel bread. It varies. When I'm back in Ireland I will always treat myself to a good fry (grilled). A huge believer in the quality of ingredients over the quantity of food on the plate.

    I love breakfast.

    I've been up all night and am ravenous now. Counting down the minutes to when the deli opens. I'm going to have a hash brown and white pudding sandwich with a pot of loose-leaf tea then into the leaba to grab some rest before getting up and getting back to work again.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,460 ✭✭✭Barry Badrinath


    Just poured myself a bowl of granola.

    By the time I picked all the raisins out, lost count after 80, there was fup all left in the bowl.

    Hardly worth the effort taken to chew it.

    Stupid granola, I hate you!

    For breakfast tomorrow I plan on having scrambled eggs followed by a smoothie consisting of Fage full fat greek yoghurt, orange juice, blueberries, one banana, strawberries, coriander, spinach, ginger, coconut oil and gelatin powder. I will then have a coffee.

    WHERE did you get that?

    Sounds like something suggested by...well by a personal trainer who saw something about coconut oil and gelatin powder on social media.
