    Gluten free cereal fruit tub and full cream milk!

    I recently found rice bubbles in gluten free. Seriously I was more excited than a 5 year old!

    it makes me hungry, it is important but I have to push it off until like 10 or 11 am or I want to eat all day

    It's good to be hungry. It means your metabolism is functioning! As soon as that hunger goes away, you're in fast mode (not starvation... it's just slowed) and that's when you know it's time to eat!

    I eat breakfast because I'm hungry in the morning!!! I'll normally eat porridge made with full-fat milk and that will see me through until lunch.

    At weekends, however, I might have a brunch around 11 and have a cooked breakfast - yum! : )

    If I'm left to my own devices, I wouldn't eat anything in the morning, at all. I'm so pressed for time that I can't even spare a minute for a cup of coffee. What I've taken to doing is either grabbing things that I can just eat while walking (like string cheese or a banana), or waiting until I get to work to make more substantial items like oatmeal or a cup of yogurt.

    I've found that eating breakfast has improved my metabolism overall and I don't feel so awful during the afternoon. I tend to eat a lot less, too. For a while I was skipping breakfast but then trying to cram the allotted calories into one big portion at dinner, which for me is a mistake because then I start thinking I have a license to eat anything. That's how I ended up like this, right?

    I find that one item on the way out plus two items at work is the perfect balance for me.

    Definitely. When I eat a good breakfast I snack less throughout the day and have more energy.

    I usually have soy milk based oatmeal, but sometimes homemade hummus. I know it sounds crazy, and it seemed strange to me too to eat that for breakfast, but it's actually traditional breakfast in some places... and it's the best one for me in terms of keeping good energy levels throughout your day.
