    Black coffee and baked eggs with mixed vegetables, done in the pressure cooker. I usually cycle to work and ten miles with nothing but coffee inside me would be bad, so I managed to find something I like, and because I’m in the UK I can leave the eggs out on the counter so when I fall out of bed and into my cycling gear and stumble through to the kitchen for coffee, the eggs are there, the pressure cooker is there, and it’s a two minute job to get everything cooking while I make coffee.

      The amount of prep and foresight feels like I’m reading about a future civilization compared to my lifestyle. Kudos to you, I’m envious and hope to get there one day ❤️

        I like cycling, and my other option, taking public transport, entails having to deal with far too many other people in proximity first thing in the morning, so I found a way that works for me. I get my bag with my work clothes ready the night before, and put my cycling clothes out, so everything is ready when I wake up.

    I used to eat a fiber-packed granola bar, now I just have coffee with creamer. I don’t have an appetite in the morning, so I call it intermittent fasting or something lol

    I’m repulsed by food until around noon. But by then I’m so busy and starving that I end up making poor meal choices and I’ve been gaining weight.

    Ideal me would somehow choke down have at least a small, nutritious breakfast. Pack a nutritious lunch for work. Eat it around noon so I’m not starving by dinner time. And then eat a normal-sized dinner (rather than binge-eat anything within reach).

      Yes, meal prep has been on my to do list for 20 years 😂

      I like the idea of oat milk in cereal. A lot more palatable than cows milk, for my taste, anyway

    When I have some motivation, I’ll strain Greek yogurt overnight and use it like cream cheese on a bagel or piece of toast. It’s to try and get more protein than actual cream cheese (about 8-10g compared to 1.5-2).

    But if I don’t get that done it’s usually a piece of buttered toast or a bagel with regular cream cheese.

      Oh, I like this idea! I could totally stomach toast and cream cheese. The strained Greek yogurt sounds delicious!
