How are you so healthy and habit-maintaining? Explain yourselves!!

I've been trying to eat breakfast lately but my body thinks I'm trying to kill it and everything feels like I'm eating sand lmao

What are your quick breakfast meals? Do you feel like your body hates you when you try to eat first thing in the morning?

Quick rolled oats with brown sugar, a pinch of salt, and dried apple chunks. Pour in boiling water, mix, and go do other things for 15 minutes while it hydrates. You can also toss in protein powder if you like. Alternatively, leftovers are also a good choice if its quick, understanding that "food x is for time y" is mostly just a cultural convention will set you free.

I'm not sure, but the discomfort youre describing might be solved by having the last meal of your day earlier and getting used to having breakfast. Might be an interaction with medications?

Oh and energy bars aren't "cheating" though they are expensive and can be of dubious nutritional value.
