Do you have stomach problems in the morning? How do you handle breakfast if you do? Any advice is welcome.

It took a long time for me to start eating breakfast and more importantly, what I *could* eat. I have IBS, so my stomach doesn’t like being awakened suddenly. I have to drink a little of something warm (even just water), and do other things first. Then I eat, and even though I’m always running late I sit down and eat mindfully. How you eat is as important as what you eat. Chew and swallow a mouthful before shoveling more into your mouth. If that means eating less, well, it’s better than not eating at all, or worse, rushing through it just to have a stomach ache after. I tried different foods before finding something I could handle. For me it’s a hard-boiled egg and peanut butter toast. But you’ll have to try and find what works for you.
