    I eat breakfast, same thing, every day, for 20 years.

    It’s no harder than anything else, just get up early enough to do it.

    Takes 30 minutes from start to cleaning my plates.

    I also eat something like 7 times a day. More frequent, smaller meals are generally better for most people from a glucose stability perspective. Of course everyone is different, and only you know for sure what timing works for you.

      Apparently a lot of people don’t eat breakfast when they first wake up. I don’t, because my body isn’t hungry when I first wake up; it takes an hour or two before I can actually feel like I’m ready to eat something. And I don’t like forcing myself to eat when I’m not hungry because I just feel like shit.

      Also I’ve been working on eating slower so I’m not just wolfing everything down and taking massive bites. It can take me upwards of 30 minutes to eat a bowl of cereal.

        Same. When my husband is home he makes me a coffee in the morning. Otherwise i just have a water. Nothing sounds good until I’ve been up for a couple of hours.

        Well if only eating when you’re hungry isn’t working for you, I recommend experimenting with specific times to eat a specific amount. That way you can find what does work for you.
