I’m always starving in a morning so I look forward to getting my eggs in the pan as soon as I wake up! I also struggle to get going without a coffee or two.
Totally!! I get out of bed slower because I want to relax in the mornings, which usually makes me sluggish/foggy to begin with. The work I do requires a ton of mental and emotional processing, and if I dont have time during the week, sometimes this processing starts to happen first things Saturday morning, and breakfast takes a backseat. Not the best! I need to build a weekend routine of some sort..
Since I do not have a job outside the house my routine stays pretty much the same. It is very rare that I skip breakfast. It would mean that I slept late and started my day with an early lunch. My husband treats me to a lie in once in a while. And I have only a few different things for breakfast so it’s not a big deal or a big decision.
Yes, but I find if I buy simple,yet healthy instant "on the go" type foods,( cereal bars, fresh fruit, etc.) And set them by my keys/purse the night b4. I can still reach my goal. Even in a hurry.
On my days off, I might have a breakfast at a coffee shop but I still have a good breakfast. If not I’ll still have my normal breakfast it just might be a bit later than my usual 7:00
Yes the timing gets changed when we have breakfast on weekend. A quick and healthy breakfast option is a good idea on weekend.
Yes my habits are generally different on my days off. I might get up later. Or do a longer workout. Generally I have a cooked breakfast or something that takes a little longer to prepare on my days off. This feels like a treat and I have the time to eat more mindfully.
My routine is certainly different on my days off. I have more time to savour the event, and it is likely to be later and more of a brunch. I am trying to plan my menus ahead to prevent me missing meals. I have resolved to be more adventurous in the kitchen, so this is part of my plan
I use breakfast as the time I can catch up on news/current events. So whether it’s the rush of a busy day or the leisurely eggs, this is the one moment of the day that I get to know what’s going on in the world. I think that pairing it with something I enjoy and already do every day helps it happen everyday without fail.
Yes and but honestly it’s best if you don’t. I’ve read and experience that the body shouldn’t work in 2 different time zones. Meaning if you wake up early for work, wake up that same time when you’re off to make it a habit/routine. Same goes for the food you eat.
