I really can't eat anything when I first get up in the morning. I have to be up for 45 minutes or so before I'm really in the mood to eat something. However, if I was kind of hungry when I went to bed the night before, then I may be OK eating maybe 15 minutes or so after I wake up in the morning but usually I can't. I'm just not in the mood for food when I first wake up.

I can definitely see where you are coming from. I think that maybe the stomach is too well rested after sleeping that you might not feel hungry right away. Of course if I go to bed hungry I will wake up pretty hungry!1 person likes this

I eat about half an hour after I get up mostly because the girls wake me really early and 6am is in my opinion far too early to be eating, I normally settle them with a drink while i get a shower then we all eat together
Its really important to me for them to see eating as something good and positive but never forced and I find they follow my example a lot so sitting with them to eat is in my experience a really positive and easy way to get them eating good healthy food, and if i let them eat at 6am they would be nagging me by 10am that they were hungry again lol!

I have a child myself. A five year old boy that wakes up in the morning at different times but he certainly doesn't sleep in too long!lol
I usually try to get up with my husband before he goes to work and that is before 6 am in a lot of instances.
I am not really hungry first thing and I like to make sure that my son eats something and then I worry about myself a little later.1 person likes this

i love eating and i am always looking forward eating time. whether it is breakfast, lunch or dinner i am always a hearty eater. my wife is a good cook so there is always something that smells good when she is cooking. sometimes we eat fried garlic rice at breakfast with egg or fish and sometimes we eat bread. sometimes we eat oats in the morning as well. i always make sure that i have a cup of coffee in the morning

I used to eat in the morning as early as 6AM. I used to do it when I was a teen ager. Now, the first I do(even if I am hungry) is mylotting.
As far as I can remember it, I never had any problems eating it the early morning. In fact I used to feel good, as we have this habit of taking bath before eat. So, I used to take bath and be fresh before I can eat something!
Thank you for the discussion.

I get up at 4am and I probably could eat but I usually just have some cookies with my coffee, then about 8am I have cereal at work.

I just read recently that larks can eat breakfast first thing,
and owls cannot eat very easily until mid morning.
That holds true with hubby and I. I wake up ravenous. He gets sick if he eats too early. I wake easily at 5:30 a.m., 9:00 is better for him. I am sleepy now at 8:00 p.m. and he will be working until 11;00 p.m. Obviously, I am a lark and he is an owl.

I need to eat in the morning because I have work that needs a lot energy. I make it a point to eat breakfast before I go to work. My brain won't work that well when I can't eat in the morning and it gives me headache.
Sandwiches with coffee or bread with soup will be enough. @ersmommy1 (12587)

Sometimes I am just not hungry. Other times I just have coffee. And then there are days where I wake up really hungry. So it just depends on my mood.

I take my VidaCell every morning. It is not a lot of food - only 20 calories per serving - but sometimes this is all I 'eat' until lunch time.
I don't always have the desire to eat more, or the morning just gets away from me and I don't end up eating.

I most certainly have a problem in the mornings. I've read it several times... "People who eat breakfast tend to lose more weight than those who don't." You know, something along those lines. I try to eat breakfast. Really, I do. Sometimes I simply cannot find anything to eat until 11 am and it's getting down to the wire and bordering on lunch time lol! This morning I opted for a granola bar because nothing else seemed appetizing. At least I had something. Some days before, I'd skip breakfast altogether and just eat lunch and dinner. Since hearing it's not good for me, I'm doing my best to change!
