I eat fruit for breakfast. I eat food my first meal after 12 noon, then I'll have my dinner later.

I usually eat twice a day, three times if I am up until the wee hours! I skip breakfast and just have a coffee usually, because my son eats fruit for breakfast and just looking after him, I donĀ“t have time to eat! Lunch we all eat together, and then dinner as well. If I am working online until one or two in the morning, I will often have a quick sandwich just to tide me over.

I normally eat 3 times a day. A bowl of cereal or an omelet for breakfast, rice with a piece of chicken or beef and some vegetables for lunch and potatoes and a piece of chicken or beef and some vegetables for dinner.

Sure, Zoom, that sounds similar to my daily routine. I have a fruit in the morning and then eat a nice lunch around 12 noon and have a delicious meal at dinner time. And I don't drink liquids with my meals until about two hours later. To give my stomach proper time to digest the food properly. And I'm also protected from possible food poisons. Two weeks ago I went to an Ethiopian restaurant with my daughter and I drank a little water and when I returned home later that afternoon my stomach was hurting. Not very bad but stinging. I was so glad that I hadn't drank a lot of water during the meal.

It all depends. On days I work, I usually only eat once, which is supper. Days I don't work, two or three times.

i think it's best to eat several small meals a day. this keeps your blood-sugar levels even and you won't get too hungry or have those 'droopy' episodes. i keep to having something every 2 hours or so. works for me.

I tend to only eat one meal a day. I have some medical things that make me not hungry and icky..so I'm on a liquid diet - eating just one portion of an actual meal a day.

I usually eat about 3 main meals a day with a little bit of snacking in between if I get hungry. For breakfast, I'd usually have bread with some topping. Perhaps cheese or jam or meat floss. It's a bonus if it's some type of cereal bread. Then for lunch I like to have noodles. Perhaps with fish, pork, eggs and vegetables. But sometimes, I would have rice instead. If I have a light lunch, then I'll have tea break too. For tea time, I'd have some slices of bread usually with butter and a little sugar. Sometimes, I'd have a drink of coffee or tea as well. At times, I might have some fruit or a bar of chocolate. Finally, it's dinner. For dinner, I like to have fried chicken and rice or fried fish or fried prawns. Otherwise, it might be porridge if I am having a late dinner. I rarely have supper. But if I do, then I'd settle for a bowl of yummy sweet beancurd.
