try eating something for breakfast - even if just

Posted By: M.A. on 2007-09-21

toast - to get your metabolism going. Eat a bigger meal at lunch and a smaller meal at dinner. Do you find yourself eating more less-healthy foods than before? If you get hungry, drink 8 ounces of water before you eat to help fill you up. Eating more in the evening means you aren't getting a chance to work off those calories. Good luck.

Maybe she is not eating breakfast before
going to church, but I don't understand why the teacher allows it to go on. Everyone should have at least 1 donut. I would talk to the teacher.
Puppy eating cat food, cats eating puppy food...
So I have three cats and a five month old puppy.

Cats eat Felidae, Puppy eats Canidae... or at least that is how it is supposed to be.

Both species eat mainly dry, but puppy gets wet at night when she is in "her room" (kitties do not go in puppy's room at night).

I cannot keep kitties out of Candiae and I cannot keep puppy out of Felidae

Can I relax or is this going to hurt either of them?

Advice very much appreciated!

TIA

What did you have for breakfast?

This morning my 2 boyz came in off of third shift together @ 7 am(rare occasion) and wanted to know if I would consider helping them with breakfast.  They made their suggesttion and I told them to go the the super WalMart and get the ingredients....Well, they're both young working men and can pick up the tab!


Shrimp gumbo (from scratch), crab cakes (frozen) and an extra bag of what appeared to be tiger shrimp on steroids!  Yummy!


Just to see them yuckin' it up, pokin' each other, playin' in the kitchen really did my heart good. 


Mind you, last night's dinner was boiled chicken backs, pinto beans with jowl meat, turnip greens and hot water cornbread ....So, don't be impressed by this morning's fare....It's very rare.    Enjoy every moment you can with your kids   Cat    


    


     


Breakfast
How about Belgian waffels with whip cream and fruit topping and an omlet bar?  Nothing fancy, just some different veggies and meats with cheese.  Set up a couple of pans and let the kids chose what they want.  You can really prep all this in the evening and be ready for them when they return.  Get paper plates and cups and have a great time.  My son went to his prom and a few others over the years so we have done a couple of different things.  If you have not been to one yet and are picking up the limo at another kid's house, ask what the situation will be.  I went to drop off and take some pics one time and when I got there all of the adults were wearing formal wear and having a party.  I, of course, had not even taken a shower that day.  Apparently I was sent an e-mail about the event, but it went into my junk mail.  I felt like a real rube, but it was still a fun event.
I don't eat breakfast - never have been able to
Ever since I was in grammar school I have never been able to eat breakfast. My parents always made me eat and I'd get sick. Now I get up at 8am, DH doesn't get up til 11AM (on different work schedules), so I don't eat anything. Around 11AM we have our "breakfast" - coffee and whatever it doesn't take me any time to make. I do like life cereal a lot, and sometimes we'll have a bagel or toast. Other times I take some frozen strawberries and blueberries and throw them in the blender with some water and we have a fruit drink. My sister tells me I'm boring and bland. HA HA
What do you eat for breakfast?

Do you change it up, or always eat the same thing?


Myself, for years and years and years... I eat a bowl of cheerios!  Sometimes I run out and have to have a bagel with peanut butter or something. 


But I still love cheerios after all this time :)


Maybe after a night out and not waking up until 11 or so, we will go eat a big restaurant breakfast of omelets/toast/hash browns, but that's like once a month.


Just curious cause I'm getting hungry and was wondering what everyone else does


Have a great Friday!!!!


Is this the breakfast one?
With eggs and sausage? My mom and sister make that one all the time for morning things. Kids especially love it.
No not the breakfast one. It is
1 bag of thawed hashbrowns (I use the cubed, my kids don't like the shredded hashbrowns)
2 cans cream of chicken soup
1 stick butter
salt and pepper
2 cups shredded cheese (I use sharp cheddar).
Crushed corn flakes

Melt butter, reserve about 1/4 cup. Mix everything together except corn flakes and reserved butter.

Spread crushed corn flakes over top, pour remaining butter over and back at 350 for 1 hour.

It is a great side dish, goes with anything.
Maybe look for a bed and breakfast place in that...
area. Chamber of Commerce might be able to help you.
Oh, forgot about breakfast here
I had some yogart and some fruit. I just do not know about these foods this person is talking about.
Mmmm...breakfast!
Bacon, eggs, hash browns, toast, orange juice, and coffee.

That reminds me--the treadmill is beckoning. ;-)
Christmas Breakfast
I make a big breakfast casserole (sausage/eggs/bread/cheese) and put it in the fridge the night before.  I then pop it in the oven while the kids are opening gifts in the morning and we have that with some fruit or anything else we want...it's Christmas!

Breakfast Casserole
Does anyone have any good breakfast casserole recipes? We are having a potluck breakfast at church on Sunday and I'm looking for ideas. Thanks!
Breakfast in the crockpot

Crockpot Breakfast Strata
Great for Easter morning!


Load up the crockpot the night before and wake up to an easy breakfast.
 
12 eggs


1 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
salt and pepper
1 lb bacon, cut into small pieces -cooked and drained
1 (32 ounce) bag frozen hash brown potatoes
1/2 cup onions, diced
3/4 lb shredded cheddar cheese
 
Layer the ingredients in your crockpot in this order.
 
1/2 of the potatoes- on the bottom.
1/2 of the bacon.
1/2 of the onions.
1/2 of the cheese.
potatoes.
bacon.
onions.
cheese.
 
Beat the eggs, milk, mustard, salt and pepper together. Pour this over the whole mixture.
 
Cook on low for 10 to 12 hours. 10 servings


Breakfast Casserole
That sounds yummy! Thanks!
I have a standing breakfast date...
every Thursday morning with 3 friends.  Weekends are mostly family time.  My oldest son always comes home from school on Friday night, so we Netflix.  This weekend, we were supposed to play paintball, but it doesn't look like the weather is going to cooperate.
Can someone tell me how to cook it? Breakfast food, right?

16 year-old made me breakfast!
It's a snow day today, and all three of my teenage sons are home from school. I'm sure my line counts will be low. It's not like they need to interrupt me with "Can I have juice?" or "Play with me," but, they do cause interruptions.

However, I have to say that at least I got one break so far today. The 16-year-old made me pancakes and sausage for breakfast, and he made the pancakes from scratch! He whipped the egg whites, folded them in, etc. What a catch he's going to be some day! (And he's learning to do transcription in the hopes of being able to work from a dorm room one day.)

Yum!
What do you fix for Christmas morning breakfast?
Looking for ideas.  Thanks!
I always make breakfast strata

Saute onion, chopped ham, asparagus and red peppers.  Layer with cheap white bread and monteray jack cheese.  Beat 1 dozen eggs with 1 quart half and half wiht salt and pepper.  Pour 1 cup of egg mixture over the first layer of ingredients, then add your second layer and pour the rest of the egg mixture.  Cover with saran wrap and put some cans on top and let it sit for a while so the bread can soak up all of the egg. Bake on 350 for about an hour or until the egg puffs up and browns on top.  This is so delicious.  You can't even tell that there is bread in there when you eat it.  The trick is to use the cheap white bread.  I think if you used a heartier bread, it may not turn out.  My family loves this and it is something you can make the night before.


Breakfast casserole sides.
1. Biscuits with assorted jams and preserves, perhaps a sausage gravy boat.
2. Baked cheese grits or fried grits.
3. Cinnamon rolls/assorted pastries.
4. Blueberry or orange-cranberry muffins.
5. Hash browns or potatoes O'Brien.
6. Sausage patties.

Here's my favorite breakfast casserole

No bread, croutons or crescent rolls --


1 lb of ground sausage with peppers and onions


1 bag of shredded hashbrowns (get the ones with peppers/onions and save yourself some work)


8 eggs beat with 1/4 c of milk, salt & pepper to taste


Layer hashbrowns first.  Pour egg mixture over.


Combine 3/4 can of cream of mushroom or chicken soup, 1/4 c of milk, and 4 ounces of sour cream.


Add browned sausage to the above soup mixture and 1/2 c shredded cheese.  Layer over eggs & hashbrowns.


Refrigerate overnight.  Bake at 350 for 30 minutes.  Take out and add 1/4 c of shredded cheese and return to oven for an additional 15 minutes.


It's not as complicated as it sounds.  My husband and I can whip this up in about 20 minutes.  It's better the second day when we just reheat it because it sets up better.  You can serve it with salsa if you like.  We got this off of allrecipes.com and just tweaked it to our personal likes. 


PUMPKIN PIE. Breakfast, lunch and dinner! n/m

Backwards night! Breakfast for dinner!
Having bacon, eggs, toast. Usually have pancakes or waffles instead of toast, but not much gumption today...
I live in Texas and have had scrapple for breakfast before.....sm
I haven't seen it around lately. We have something down here that is similar but for some reason it really grosses me out....hog head cheese.
eating out of the
Colorado - we buy a half a grass fed beef for the freezer and that lasts a year. We buy a lot of the vending snacks at Sam's because we have teenagers that need food for their back packs or they will eat out because they are gone all day. We do not ever eat out unless it is a birthday and then we spend $100.00 on a nice restaurant. We have a garden for herbs, onions, garlic, etc.
Eating Out - About the Same as You
We usually get take out on Friday's because I don't cook on Fridays (it's my day off so to speak). Then we go out on Saturday nights just my husband and myself and our best friends and usually spend about $40+ depending on where we go. The kids get together with their kids and they usually get some sort of take out. Then on Saturdays we usually either eat lunch out (fast food) and then Sundays either lunch or dinner out (fast food - I hate to say sometimes it's both). We have been trying to cut down the Saturdays and Sundays as far as the fast food goes. My daughter who is a vegetarian doesn't usually get much from the fast food restaurants so our bill usually isn't that large (About $10). We always use coupons, though (buy 1 get 1 free - we have what is called Entertainment Books that the schools usually sell). My husband will cook, and I hate to say he cooks better than I do.
Try eating ...
I have this problem as well. Stick with whole wheat/whole grain breads (buns) and whole wheat pasta rather than white. When you eat white flour products or any type of food with high glycemic index levels, it will be worse. (It's like burning pine ... whoosh!) Also, always have protein along with other foods.

You can Google glycemic index and find out which foods are better & worse to eat.
Eating Out

Not including lunch (which I generally eat out 3 or 4 days a week) how often do you have dinner out?


We eat out (or order in) way more than I want to, but DH thinks it is easier for me to do so than to cook. We eat restaurant food probably 4 or 5 nights a week, you?


Bloody Mary for breakfast, extra vodka! lol

I wish I had an eating disorder
for one think it would be pretty cool. I just want to get more attention from my man, friends and family members who don't pay enough attention. When I pick up the mags I see all the thin models like Nicole Ritchie and Ms. Hilton. They are stars for being super thin. I know I can't reach that fame but if I look thin I know I will have more options. I know some of you won't agree with me but that is the way society is going. Get thin or die trying.

Eating Disorder
My 22-year-old niece has an eating disorder. Her Cardiologist sent her home to die. She is in a wheelchair now. The doctors give her less than 6 months to live. Be careful for what you wish for. Skinny is NOT worth dying for. Your post is so sad.
Eating ice like crazy!?

I'm in a phase of craving cold water and ice like crazy these days.  Anybody know what that means, besides perhaps anemia?  I was anemic a while back, but got that taken care of and don't see any reason I should be again.  I've been cutting back on sugar and dieting a little bit, wondering if that could be it?


Whatch'all think?


something is eating my roses -
just put three rose bushes out - all had buds and blooms. Today I walk out and all buts and blooms have been bitten off.  What is this and how do I stop?  I know there are squirrels, chipmunks and rabbits.  Who is doing it?  (If it is chipmunks I am up against a wall - there must be a million).
what are they eating off your porch?
mine come to suet feeders.
eating problem
I'm glad you are aware of the possibility of an eating disorder - it is SO hard to tell with kids - the way they joke around about things - but sometimes joking is the way they address it - just glad you recognize the possibility. . Hugs to you and yours. .
Eating habits
Out of curiousity, what are your eating habits?  I usually eat every 2 hours or so during the day.  I have a protein shake at 7:30 and then ham and eggs at 9:30.  It's possible you had sugar with your breakfast in coffee or tea and it's worn off or the food you ate gave you a boost but has worn off.  Try having a snack at that time and see if it helps.
how do you know if you have an eating issue sm

i have so many emotions running through my mind every single day, but not going to get into all of them here.  i hope i don't have an eating issue/disorder, but sometimes i wonder.  i grew up in a strict household (my dad was immature and always telling me i was fat and needed to lose weight).  i'm an average size 5 foot 7 girl.  i'm 36 now and constantly think about food, how many calories something has, fat content.  i gain weight easily.  i just get so tired of worrying about what i'm going to eat, cause it'll make me fat.  sometimes i will sneak eating food, because my husband will say things like "do you really need that?" and he's just trying to help.  but what i really think is i want is to join WW and have group support from other people that are going through the same thing.  my husband can drink about six sodas a day, eat whatever and he doesn't gain weight.  he doesn't exercise.  it just makes me sad that i have to work so hard to not be huge.  i'm about 165.  i would like to get down to at least 150 or maybe less.  my parents used to tell me when i was little not to waste food (we were poor so wasting food was like wasting money). 


i'm sorry, i'm rambling on, but i really don't have anyone to talk to.  sometimes i think i'd like to see a counselor. (i have never seen a counselor)  i have other issues that bother me but won't get into it. 


thanks for listening, just wondered if anyone else has food issues.  i'm a healthy person.  i don't smoke or drink.  never did drugs.  i try to eat healthy.  i especially overdo it in stressful situations.  yesterday i ate a little less than a pint of butter pecan ice cream.  then i felt crappy the rest of the evening.


well i stop now. 


What time are we eating??
:)
But if I go shopping after eating,
I'm full, nothing sounds good, and I end up with no food!
Do you get very tired after eating?
I do and I don't know what to do about it. If I even just eat a hamburger I get so tired and it last about 45 minutes or so.
What is the difference in a dog eating
raw chicken and roaming around outside and eating an animal it kills????
Starbucks coffee IS strong. Probably Breakfast Blend is weakest,

Two youngest grandchildren here tonight. They love breakfast for supper. (sm)
Will do bacon, hashbrowns, a frittata, biscuits and juice. If their mom gets here in time for supper will do gravy for her biscuits. The kids and my husband don't care for biscuits and gravy. (Go Figure).
Breakfast - homemade biscuits, gravy, scrambled eggs,
bacon, fried bologna and potato pancakes.  It was scrumptious!!!!
I am exercising and eating better, just wanted to
know if anyone has used this particular brand.  I know there are hundreds of knock offs, but this is suppose to be the "original."
Got that right..AND not eating when you're NOT hungry! nm

Maybe you do have an eating disorder. You don't have to be thin
to have one.    If your weight is an issue you the one that has the power to change it.   Been overweight all of my entire life, but this is the year I'm determined to tackle it.  Just too bad I didn't do it 20 years ago. 
Yes!! I will not change my eating habits
either. I'm not where I want to be, but I"m getting there. I walk 5 to 7 days a week. Too cold right now (I'm in MN), but I love to walk outside by myself in the evening. So relaxing. Anyway....I started to see some very small weight loss when I started walking daily..maybe 1/2 pound a week. When I hit the 30-day mark it was like POW! My metabolism must've kicked in because I started losing 2 to 3 pounds. Everyone's is different though...

PS--if you're jogging you'll see more results than me, as I really just walk (not even too fast:)
Can a cat get sick by eating raw chicken.

I have some stay cats, mama and 2 babies at the door. I have been feeding them milk, dog food, whatever they will eat.  Any, one is a little kitten that managed to get inside and I did not know it.  I look in the kitchen and she has a piece of raw chicken.   I had  boneless chicken breasts out to thaw.  Is she going to get sick?  Should I give it back to her.
