What time is breakfast?

I used to wake up and eat breakfast or get ready for work and then eat breakfast. Lately, I leave the house for work, drink coffee in the car and eat breakfast at work. It makes the wait for lunch shorter and I'm not usually that hungry before breakfast.

What do you do?

    Whenever you decide to eat after a period of time has elapsed.

    Could be in the morning, could be the middle of the day, could be at midnight. Varies.

    An hour after I have taken my thyroid medication in the morning, whenever that is.

    Ideally, I eat about two hours after I wake up.

    absolute same thing
  • In my diary I have it as any meal taking place between 6am and 11am. Before 6 it's a snack (I stay up really late and don't pay mind to all that advice about not snacking before bed.)

    I drink my tea at 7:30AM and relax for about 15 mins before my daughter gets up.
    I eat breakfast at work around 9:30A-10:30A

    I like eating a little later in the morning because then I'm cutting out a mid-morning snack so more calories for the rest of the day.

    I sort of have a two part breakfast, cause I get up really early. I get up at 430 and shower, and usually eat a banana and have some almond milk. Then when I get to work (usually around 730), I eat my oatmeal that I have made and taken with me. I used to eat my whole breakfast early, but this means I get ready to eat lunch really earlier, so doing it the new way works much better for me

    My "real" breakfast is at 11 during the week, noonish on the weekends, which just gets logged as lunch. I'll have a glass of milk or a protein shake after my workout, but that's my first real "meal".

    I am an evening person, so I'm never really hungry until after lunch. I don't like 'running on empty' though, so I have a bit of breakfast at 6:30 before going to university.

    I suffer from terrible hunger after dinner though, so I try to eat dinner as late as I can (usually around 8pm). That way there are less hours between dinner and bed in which to snack.

    My mum suffers from hunger between dinner and bed, too, like me. However, she eats dinner really early, at about 5:30pm, because she 'gets hungry'. So she ends up almost having ANOTHER dinner between then and bed - something like a sandwich or cheese on toast or some crisps and fruit and chocolate etc etc. This is why she isn't losing weight.

    I start drink my Shakeology in the car around 7:30 and finish it off at work, then have my snack around 9:30-10. On the weekends it's a little later (and might be different) then that since we can sleep in a little bit and not have to rush around.

    ETA: I usually get up between 6:30-7 during the week.

    I wake around 5:30 and go about my morning, have my coffee but don't have breakfast until about 9:30. I tried eating at 7 before work but I didn't like doing it that way.

    Half past...never.

    I don't eat breakfast. I have coffee, though. Lots of coffee.

    I eat a moderate lunch, typically between 250 - 300 cals, then a decent dinner.

    Whatever that first bite of food is in the day, no matter what time it is? That's breakfast.

    Seriously, I have a 1/2 scoop protein powder & water in the AM just before I workout at home, then get ready for work & follow what you basically do: cup of decaf coffee with raw cacao powder, cinnamon & flax milk on the way in then true bfast while I start my day at work. Lately, I've been missing my AM snack as when I get hungry it's almost lunch time, so I just eat lunch earlier instead.

    Pretty much I end up eating or having a protein shake about every 3 hours which stops me from noshing on the stuff that got me fat in the first place.

    I like to exercise on an empty stomach, so breakfast is usually 1-1/2 to 2 hours after I get up. Unless I work a 6am shift, then I just cram something into my mouth as soon as I wake up.
  • I wake up at 5am and am at work by 6am and I drink my coffee then and anywhere between 7:30-8:30am is when I eat my breakfast. Actually been having green smoothies.

    Lunch is around 11am


    Snack is around 3pm


    Dinner is around 6pm.

    On work days it's at about 7:30 in the car.

    On weekends, it's shortly after I get up, which is usually around 9-9:30am.

    I make a thick protein smoothy with extra ice right before I leave for work so it's just perfect consistency when I get there. I tend to sleep as late as I can, this way I have a healthy breakfast to take to work.

    Im up anywhere between 5:45am and 7am but I usually eat breakfast at work... about 9am. I aim for lunch between 12p and 1p.

    On the weekends it varies depending on what time I wake up.

    Per my dietician you should eat breakfast within and hour of getting up. It's supposed to get your metabolisim going. I must admit I never eat breakfast within an hour. It's more like 2 or 3. I just can't eat that soon after getting up. During the work week I eat breakfast after I get to work usually about 8:30 (I get up at 5:30). Lunch on the other hand is at 1:00, so I have time around 11 for a snack. Weekends, breakfast is most likely going to be more of a brunch thing. I really am bad and don't remember to eat, so I may get 2 meals in those two days (which is what my dietician says causes my frequesnt plataues).
  • I'm in the same situation as you during weekdays when I dont have time to eat breakfast at home so I just bring it to work for me to eat. Normally I'm not a morning person so I make some adjustments on weekdays. At work I eat between 7:30-8:30 am then have my lunch around 2-3pm and dinner at 10-11pm.

    When I'm at home, I normally eat breakfast 10:30-11am (except Sundays coz I'm pumping iron at the gym at that time)

    I get up at 6:00 to shower and afterward usually drink two glasses of water while I get ready for work. It's usually around 7:45 when I get to work and eat breakfast.

    I finish my workouts about 7am, drink some protien, shower, check email, then breakfast about 8:30.

    I don't know how some people skip breakfast, I would be ripping folks' heads off without it.
