i would like to gain weight but been reading posts that my first step is to get my daily calories (intake) im finding this really hard because i always miss breakfast, im never hungry or even fancy something small when i get up, 2day i have jus about managed scrambled eggs on toast this morning at 10.45 but during a wk day morning i dont fancy anything, and never eat till 11ish but i stuff myself when i do eat at this time.

is there a way round this?

I used to be the same and what worked for me was eating just before i went to sleep. This always made me hungry first thing in a morning. Make sure you then force yourself to eat even just a small breakfast, like a bowl of cereal or a slice of toast, my body after a week or so must of got in the habit of processing food early in the day and now i eat breakfast every day. Make sure you eat before your first cup of coffee or fag if you smoke as either of these will suppress your appetite. Eating breakfast for me seems to kick start my metabolism so i also eat more throughtout the day.

could always have a meal replacement drink for breakfast, quick and easy to make, and also rather tastey

I always have a protein shake for breakfast as I am the same. Can't do food as soon as I get up.

as above

what ive been doin m8 is smoothies!!

I never eat fruit, but I find havin 3/4pin of smoothie before i leave of a morning boosts my metabolism 10 fold and am STARVING by about 9:30am if I have one about 7.

When I had nothing, I could EASILY go till 1pm (from 6:30am) with nothing.

says it all really ...
