It's 11 o'clock and I'm ready for lunch with tummy rumbles.

Thing is though, I've had two breakfasts already!

Admittedly I got up before 5.

I'm hungry now

Me too! I may have to raid the fridge and/or larder! ??

Most of the time except just after dinner.

Like baggs roundabout 11. Then that’s about it. I’ve never been a big eater.

I can nibble my way through the day really. I enjoy food.

I’m trying so hard at the moment to be sensible as I lost a stone after covid and then the flu and would love to keep it off. It is a struggle.

We don’t eat until lunchtime, 16 hour fasting, so I’m getting hungry now for my late breakfast, dinner will be 7-7:30’ish.

I always find that if I have breakfast, I am hungry again earlier than if I had not.
But then my metabolism is totally up the spout, so I’m nothing to go by really

I very rarely feel hungry thanks to brain damage. I eat when Mr.B tells me it’s time. I have to eat before taking some of my meds.

Sadly I just dropped my lunch. Water?

In the evenings, annoyingly. I never seem hungry in the mornings.

Coffee is enough for me early morning, I couldn’t face food until around 11.00/12.00, whatever I eat then does me until dinner at 7.30.ish.

I can't face coffee until at least 11 am, even the smell makes me feel ill, Kalu.
However, after 11 o'clock it's fine. But never after 2pm either

How different each body is Calli. As soon as I am awake the first thing I do is make my kick start espresso to get me going. I also enjoyed an after dinner espresso but sadly, no longer an option after 8.00pm, switch over to decaf now.

Callistemon21 Sat 17-Sept-22 13:09:21

I usually drink decaffeinated coffee unless I'm out, Kalu

A good strong cup of Yorkshire tea gets me going (well, kind of!) in the morning.

I am always ready to eat at mealtimes, but I do not snack between meals, apart from after choir practice. Singing makes me hungry!

Much to the annoyance of my waist-line, I am most hungry after 10pm. No breakfast, hardly any lunch (might have a slice of toast) - biscuit and tea at about 5pm - ok till about 10pm and then the pangs start ?
