How soon after you wake up do you eat breakfast?

I have something, protein shake, Greek yogurt, a slice of cheese within an hour of getting out of bed. Likewise I also eat a little something within a hour of when I go to bed.

I have a yogurt as soon as I get up. Sometimes if i'm late and need to be in the car and don't have time to eat a yogurt i get a bottle of kefir. Yakult is one brand. Then later I will eat a good breakfast. My sons (adults now) say I am the only person they know who eats two breakfasts, one lunch, then snack, then dinner, then second dinner or a dessert. That depends on if I want sweet of savory....lol. All in all it keeps my sugar levels pretty even thru the day.

I know what is said about breakfast....but it does not hold true for me.

My truth is this....if I make myself eat something when I am not hungry (and in fact sometimes nauseated)....I WILL go over my daily calorie load.  If I follow my body cues and eat when I finally feel I need to....my calroie count will be OK.   So I do what I know is best for me.

I have been getting up and drinking coffee with real cream in the AM...this is my one real indulgance!  Later in the morning....when I feel I need too...I ead a hard bolied egg or some greek yogurt.  I usually eat every two hours once I start eating.

my nut says to eat within an hour of waking. i have my green smoothie/protein shake in the morning. i drink it on my way to work and for the first hour or so i'm at work.

I also have a protein shake on the way to work.

I have something within an hour of waking, preferably within 30min. Lately it has been a protein shake because I am addicted to the mint cookie. I always have a protein shake on early morning gym days. Slow days I fix breakfast.

 I get up at 5:15 get dressed, then  at about 6:00 i make my protein shake for breakfast, my mid morning snack is usually a yogurt around 9:30 or 10.

 Nine times out of ten, if I'm going to get sick from food, it's going to be in the morning.   Especially when I haven't had enough to drink.  Therefore, I won't eat until I drink at least 24 ounces of liquid.  Protein shakes make me sick, so what I do is:  Drink my liquids, and plan on eating three times during my workday--a snack about 10 am, lunch around 12:30 and another snack around 3:00 or so.  I drink between 20-24 ounces in between eating.  

When I get home, I try to eat something around 6 p.m., and if I can stand it, I'll have a final meal about 8:30 or so.  If I've done it right, I get about 60-70 grams of protein in a day.  

I do my vitamins in the morning, and now that I can tolerate swallowing pills (cut in half), that's going much better.  My next step is to incorporate calcium chews into my day, and to include an iron pill in my bedtime ritual.  

All of this is a compromise.   I wish I were one of those people who could eat first thing in the morning.  Tomorrow morning, I have an early meeting and I need to be at my best, so I'll probably get up early and try to eat something early--but not before I drink at least 20 ounces of liquid.  

Recently I have been rolling out of bed around 6:30-6:45am and get dressed, then I head out the door for a 30 min walk.  
When I get home I drink my protein shake and take my meds with that.  
I will eat again about 3 hrs later.  
I am only about a mo out, so this is all new to me.

I get up about 6:15, but usually don't have anything to eat or drin****il 7:30 or 8 at work (when I almost have SF hot chocolate with protein powder).
