To think this is a suitable breakfast?

[ARareKindaBear]

For years I have not eaten breakfast, I never have appetite in a morning so just drink coffee and wait until lunch to eat.

Recently however I’ve discovered honey Greek yogurt and I’ve become a bit obsessed with it! So I’ve been eating 100g of Greek honey yogurt mixed with 5g of chopped mixed nuts every morning for breakfast. I love it!

My mum has now decided I clearly have an eating disorder as that isn’t a suitable breakfast apparently - I think it’s quite healthy?! No crappy sugars that you would get with cereal, protein, fibre in the nuts? Honey is good for you too surely?

AIBU to think a) it’s healthy and b) it’s better than nothing?!

My MIL greeted me today with “I hear you are eating nuts for breakfast.”

I told her I also have plain Greek yoghurt, a banana, spoonful of mixed seeds and some blueberries with it. she looked at me as if I was mad and said that was not a proper breakfast.
She has type 2 diabetes and is very over weight so I won’t be taking any lessons from her in nutrition.

I don't suppose it's better than nothing - nothing is fine too if you don't fancy eating. Eat it as you enjoy. If you like the honey then add it. So what if you're eating 42 biscuits a week if you are healthy and happy. The only odd thing is that you are weighing stuff. Just estimate 1/4 of the tub and have a spare as back up in case you need more - it has a fairly long shelf life so won't go off.

It’s been a fairly standard breakfast for a very long time. What does she want you to eat?

Chopped mixed nuts, to be specific!

It would be inappropriate to judge your Mum’s concerns out of context.
Is her opinion based solely on this one factor?
Are you under or overweight (and, if so by what standard?)?
Do you or anyone in your family have a history of eating disorders?
These are just some of the questions that would give OP context.

Yes I have terrible hayfever which affects my throat and mouth more than anything else! It even wakes me up in the night as I feel like a have something crawling around in my mouth! It’s horrendous

if you can get local honey to add into your yoghurt, it may help your allergies.

Your breakfast sounds fine to me. I have coffee and yoghurt if I have breakfast. Mine is 9%MF.

Taking a quick tangent from this thread's topic, @Nanof8 you may have something called Oral Allergy Syndrome (I only found out about this 2 days ago!):

Some people who get hayfever can also have reactions to various related foods (depending on which pollen sets off your hayfever) resulting in mainly symptoms in the mouth. You'd need to avoid the foods that cause this. You might not realise this is what's going on. Might be worth looking into? Perhaps keep a food diary?

My milk is getting delivered tomorrow 😋 , I have just bought some crackers to test the cheese on . What type of herbs do you use ? fresh or dried ?

My mouth also gets really sore if I eat sweets with hard shells such as M&ms

Maltesers set it off too (the honeycomb)
