I used to eat brunch most of the time, there were times that I forgot to eat until late in the afternoon. Specially if am just home all the time. I don't feel like eating in a regular time when am home. what about you? do you eat brunch most often? what are your reasons? is it because you are in a hurry or just purposely do it because you are use to it? Just curious!!!

Hi Bebs, I always do it if I would be on my job outside. I did it long before I started my first job. Most likely it happens when I would be catching trips (round trips), I have to complete my itineraries before going back home. In order to get this sometimes I forgot to eat each meals. When I would be in home it never happens because my partner would always doing the right meal at the right time....I feel gaining wait every time I stay home. Thanks for the topic.... Mobhomeir..

Oh!! I realize that I might get sick when I will not eat at the right time. But then my stomach was used to eating late breakfast and that will includes the lunch when I eat. But just today I feel sick and throw up because I was out doing things and did not eat at the right time, we ate very late lunch and it made me sick. I throw up all that I ate.. Ouch!!! sick!!!

I eat brunch all the time, I don't ever eat breakfast, I don't get hungry till in the afternoon. I try to eat at noontime, but sometimes I'm busy and forget what time it is until I stop to look at the clock, I don't do it on purpose, and my husband gets onto me for doing that, because he says whenever I eat a late lunch then I'm not hungry at suppertime and I don't feel like cooking anything..haha.

I eat my breakfast in the office during weekdays. I do eat every 10:00 am then I eat my lunch with my officemates at 12:00. I think I've been eating on time during weekdays. During Sundays I eat together with family so all the more that we have to be on time. But whenever I take vacation leave and alone in the house. I almost would eat just once during the day. I feel lazy to eat alone and besides I would be so preoccupied with the works I had to do at home so mostly I would eat just bananas and fresh green veggies and slice of wholewheat bread. I don't eat rice anymore.

Oh wow!! I think you are now ready to live in US because you can stand without eating rice.. hahaha there are lots of Filipinos who can not stand without rice. I can not live eating bread all the time.. I eat bread sometimes only when I can not find anything more to eat.. hehehe.. I preferred potatoes than bread.

yeah i love to eat brunch and breakfast itself... it is never a good idea to miss breakfast or brunch just around five hundred calories is enough to get you started. i have also heard that it is easier to lose weight if you start your day with a glass or two of water before breakfast. so that is my two cents

Oh!! that makes me sick, drinking 2 glasses of water early in the morning that makes me sick. I can eat breakfast without feeling sick but not to drink that early.

It depends when I wake up and start moving. Sometimes if I am up early in the morning I don't think about eating. Though I have to force myself even when I don't want to. Keeping myself healthy is a constant struggle, but if I neglect to eat my body will often let me know.

That's what I want to practice now... I will eat as soon as I am hungry because I don't want to get sick. I often neglect my stomach but now I realize I have to listen to it when it needs attention.

I have brunch once in a while during my days off like these days when I am having a rest. Usually I have my three regular meals when it is working week. I am used to having meals a day instead of two.

Sometimes I get sick of eating breakfast so I'll skip it and eat a good lunch. Sometimes if I know I'll be out all day I'll skip breakfast and then find a place to sit down for brunch, you are not alone Bebs.

Oh? it is surprising to hear that somebody get sick eating breakfast? hahah in my country, most people who don't eat breakfast are the ones who are getting sick. I always eat regular breakfast when I was there, but when I arrived here? I don't like to eat early until I forgo the time only to find out it's already 11 or 12.. so then I will eat when I am hungry.

Hello bebs, I used to be a brunch eater, because I would wake up late and it's almost time for lunch, so I will just eat heavy so I won't need to eat again at noon. But when I already have my own family, I don't want my son to be a brunch eater, I want him to eat a regular time, so I will wake up early to prepare our breakfast so we can all eat together. Take care and have fun myLotting red_amethyst

I eat brunch almost every day. It is because I wake up late and my appetite is not that good every time I woke up. When I eat heavy meals on morning I tend to get get stomach upset or sometimes an urge to vomit. So eating brunch is what I prefer.

Hi, I am not a brunch person...of course,sometimes, I may be busy and really no time to eat my breakfast, then I will have my brunch when I am free.It happen once a while in my life. I prefer to eat my breakfast every morning,at least a piece of bread with a cup of hot tea. Or else, I may get gastric problem. If I am really busy, then I will grab the bread and eat while I am driving,can save my time and at least my stomach is not hungry.
