Is it normal that I feel I need to eat breakfast in courses? I do not like the feeling of a heavy meal as soon as I wake up. I start with fruit, then exercise, then come back and eat my eggs with salad or peanuts or oatmeal.

It is a fantastic idea. The fruit will cleanse your palate and refresh you, the exercise will help you wake and then you fuel up for the day ahead. Better than normal i think 🙂

It is totally normal but you have to do your one breakfast what best is for you I always drink water eat some bread and then go exercise.

Eating a healthy breakfast is a good choice. The word breakfast is "break – fast" which means breaking the fast from a great sleep. So by eating a Good breakfast our body turns to be energetic to do job in a great way 😊😊

You don’t need to eat breakfast as soon as you wake up if it is working for you! I do the same as you do! I always skip breakfast, I usually eat a banana and after the running I come back and have my breakfast

It is normal thats just how your body works and i think its good to do it in courses because eating all at once you might feel bloated ir to full to do anything

Do what is good for you and your body. Some people need a larger meal as soon as they wake up. Some people need a little fruit or toast. Some people don’t need food at all in the morning. Do what is right for you. If you feel energized from eating breakfast in portions, I say do it!

Of course it’s normal! Everyone is different. If Eating in variations helps you eat a full and nutritious meal then go right for it! Goodluck!!😄

That is totally normal! I think it’s great that you’re being mindful and listening to your body. Sometimes I wake up and just don’t want a full breakfast right away either. I don’t think there’s any reason to force it. One thing I might suggest trying if you’re not already doing so is not eating or snacking past 9 pm and see if that changes how you feel in the morning. Otherwise keep on going, you’re doing great!

I think eating in stages is fine. Especially if your going to exercise first. One suggestion would be to eat some protein before you exercise for energy and food for your muscles. Good job and keep it up!!

it is completely normal to do this. some days i eat breakfast all at once and somedays i prefer just to have a piece of fruit and then eat more later. don’t worry about the way you prefer to eat breakfast, you do you!!
