What are you having for breakfast?

[newme]

A monster ultra fiesta mango and neck ache, apparently falling asleep on too many pillows after too much cider is a bad idea.

 

[gentlegreen]

63g carbs - 252 kcals
17g fat - 153 kcals
20g protein - 80 kcals
Total approx 500 kcals.
Inhaled around 9 am and usually plenty to keep me going until teatime - around 17.30 - but yesterday I needed to top-up with carbs at 13.45 to avoid hypothermia.

BMR - 1800 / 24 = 75kcals per hour - so breakfast should be OK until 15.30
At my current activity level 2700/24 = 112.5 kcals / hour - so 13.30

But I'm reasonably sure I'm in caloric deficit overall - which probably doesn't help ...

Hi five!

Doesn't strike me as providing an adequate amount of roughage, your regular brekky.

The mash is made with skins on, which helps. But my evening meal is usually quite heavily vegetable and/or lentil based. I've got a digestive system which is quite sensitive to lack of fibre, so I have an incentive to make sure that I get an adequate amount over the day.

If you want colcannon, it's easy enough to make. What was in that pound of food that you wouldn't add in your own kitchen?

Sometimes its easier to buy mash. A few minutes in the microwave and then carb goodness.

How are we defining breakfast now? You started 7 hours ago, isn't it lunch yet?

Every meal is breakfast because I've not eaten for a while. There is also no such word as 'lunch' - it's dinner.

 

[newme]

I often only eat once a day, suppose technically thats always breakfast?
