Porridge...
with a bit o' marmite drizzled over the top.
.
Don't eat brekkie during the week, but as I was up at 6am this morning I decided on a bacon sarnie with ketchup on luffly thick bread - but now I'm bloody stuffed and sat here with a coffee n a cig
I'm on a low-carb eating plan so today I'm having a chorizo and vegetable omelette. I always have breakfast, and it usually involves eggs. I'm lucky in that I can cook something after I've got the kids off to school, otherwise I probably wouldn't bother.
tune marmite ewghhhhhh
i never realised how easy it is to make poridge, i probally dont do it the correct way, but oats in a bowl, add milk, bung in microwave 2 mins jobs done.
i only have bacon on a saturday, and its lean and grilled. i do sometimes crave a full fried english, but i resist.
cant really make fried bread with wholemeal bread, and we dont buy white.
for a fat bird i think my gp was midely peved when thay ran a full set of tests and it came back as cholestoral at a really healthy level and same with blood pressure lol i could see he was hoping to say i was about to die lol

i do mine on the hob...with the more natural oats... with bran If i can get it.
much easier, less processed than ready brek in terms of salts and additives... needs sweetening (unless ure Scots) so use a bit of honey or fruit...
I have Oatibix in the week but I have it when I get to work. I can't eat first thing, I need to be up and about for a while before I do breakfast. But I need the milk to be really cold and from an unopened carton. I never, ever, ever use milk from an opened carton.
People at work think I'm weird. :silly:
go to publications.... search for "cut out the saturated fat"
fags & coffees... multiple. I'm greedy at breakfast

i usually head off to work after some rooibosch tea and some yoghurt. then I wait until late morning and find a nice place to have a decent lunch. a proper lunch not a fry up or a snack.
I think taste linked to appetite and knowing what is right for you; all combine to keep your weight at a healthy level.
I think the key factor is in generating a good appetite. if I am hungry enough and active enough and choose a sensible meal, I will burn it off okay.
I still love a really well done fry up and will eat one at least once a month.
Toast with jam or marmite Monday to Friday
Bacon rolls Saturday and Sunday.
I think its the most important meal of the day and I often miss it altogether.
My dream breakfast is:
Sausage (not too meaty not too fatty grilled)
Bacon (Dry cured smoked fried until just crispy)
Eggs ( Fried in olive oil)
Tinned whole plum tomatoes
Mushrooms (fried in butter)
Presentation is important and the bacon and sausage should form a central wall with the eggs to one side and the tomatoes n mushroom to the other.
A cup of strong traditional tea.
I will of course accept any kind of breakfast if my hunger has arisen from passion.
Anybody else as fussy as me about a fry up?
I can't eat anything before about 11am, the it's not worth it :P
Breakfast in the week is a strange beast as I start early and have to travel. Consequently early eating is en-route, choccy bar and a banana. Once the time sensitive part of the day is over it's usually cereals and mullerrice in the car park.
Weekend is totally different and I usually put a bit of effort in. Cereals with fruit, tasted swiss museli loaf (full of fruit and whole hazel nuts), freshly squeezed orange juice and a mug of tea. This is usually taken at the breakfast table, but on the odd occasion in bed follwed by some rather satisfying snuggling under the duvet. It's very difficult to snuggle on an empty stomach.
