To think Sunday breakfast is the best?

Canny whack a tattie scone dipped into a runny egg

Thank you for writing this. My DS also had an eating disorder at 14 years old, this is the kind of thing his disorder told his brain was sensible. Even more so if he “couldn’t finish” breakfast for being too full. It’s so upsetting

You really want everyone to know you're keto, don't you?

I prefer a bacon buttie with my Sunday cup of smug, but whatever

I had a potato waffle with an egg on. Might eat a satsuma now for the healthy bit.
Probably won't need to eat now till Tuesday.

You could have made this post about your breakfast without all the comments about missing meals. Maybe they indicate that you have a poor relationship with food?

I too felt there was something off about this post. The breakfast sounds perfectly healthy but hardly lavish. Most people would be hungry again by mid afternoon.

@Ekkekkkeekkkekk Thanks for post as I've just ordered some of the keto bread to try, and the keto granola. I'm prediabetic, and miss this type of food as it usually spikes my blood sugar.

It will be a treat as both items are quite pricey 😀

A feast can be quality rather than quantity.

If she was morbidly obese before, it's probably a far healthier breakfast than she was eating before.

And maybe she was having a moment of self reflection and just felt good about herself.

Her biggest mistake was not recognising that women aren't allowed to feel good about themselves on MN unless a whole load of humble self flagellation thrown in for good measure.

i agree too!

Lavish breakfast? LOL. Sounds a long way from being a feast and nothing to make a fuss about.

Tbh, I can't imagine anyone who has a genuinely healthy relationship with food themselves being upset by a post like this 🤷🏻‍♀️

I

This 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

And OP you know full well that this is not a ‘feast’ if you were morbidly obese for years. This is just a stupid gloat that you’ve ate some healthy food. Good for you but don’t dress it up as something it isn’t.

I cant stomach breakfast no matter what day it is or how lavish it is.
I dont know how some do it out of bed and eating yuk.

I agree - you can't say anything in here without someone jumping down your throat!
I took it as a lighthearted op looks forward to her Sunday breakfast post but some people really do take offence at anything!

Op it sounds great, hope you enjoyed it - l had Vine tomatoes on toast followed by a choux pastry cream cake!!

Whoa! I'm like the OP I don't eat breakfast other than possibly the weekend as I'm not hungry so tend to brunch around 11am
I think you're unfairly projecting.

Weekends I love a fresh cooked pastry and proper coffee as well as maybe eggs and avo or bacon sandwich. However it still isn't breakfast time, about 10 ish.

The poster who put they like smoked salmon and cream cheese...that's my partners go to.

Nb..coincidence I started post with whoa as I hadn't seen the OP reply ..but obvs we feel the same!

1156...been out walking dog for an hour and still not hungry so looks like a brunch but I wont eat again until this evening either.

That doesn't sound like a fancy breakfast so much as a stealth boast.

Bacon, eggs, toast now that's a weekend breakfast, not 'keto granola'

Im doing that next time 😋

God that breakfast sounds depressing but each to their own.

We had pieces on sausage - square sausage and mothers pride plain loaf. Absolutely stunning.

OP, Sunday breakfast for me is usually coffee with double cream, smoked salmon and cream cheese or scrambled eggs and Greek yoghurt with blueberries and raspberries.

I generally don't eat again until I get hungry, which will be around 5pm.

I don't eat breakfast the rest of the week either.

It's not about the food itself being 'fancy' but having the time to actually focus on it feels like a treat sometimes.

I'm a perfectly normal and healthy weight and I don't have food issues. I eat what I want when I'm hungry.

The OP is clearly proud of her achievement (and, yes, going from morbidly obese to a healthy weight is an achievement) and of she's feeling all warm and fuzzy about that today, fair enough!

Maybe it's the people who feel the need to tear her down who have the issues with food to have such a strong reaction to someone feeling accomplished today.

Mate, everybody knew you had a food problem.

We just don’t want to read the glorification of it.

👏👏👏

See, this is the essential bit of info missing from the OP. I read your OP and thought, great, sounds like a fairly nice breakfast but I’d certainly want lunch later too. I’m fairly active and don’t have a history of morbid obesity, and having this for breakfast wouldn’t mean skipping other meals.

Like others, I wondered from the OP if there was some history of disordered eating or other health issues. Helpful that you’ve clarified there is.

Yes, it is very obvious that you are rigidly controlling your weight. We can all tell that from your original post. That’s not the issue. The issue is that you created a post to seek validation and praise for that.

I had lentil and tomato soup and a mocha. I shall have lunch and dinner too. Yes I know soup isn't traditional breakfast food but it is very nice soup.

My idea of a lavish breakfast would be your full English with bubble, black pudding and two toast.

You think ‘keto’ bread and yogurt one day a week is some sort of indulgent feast? So much so that you had to post on a forum to share the news with strangers?

I agree with other posters that this is the behaviour of someone with certain issues around food.

People bragging how little they eat is so fucking tedious. My DM does it all the time, so does FIL. We’re invited to enjoy their disordered eating with a side dish of smugness. Bore off…
