What do you mean caffeine and a croissant doesn't count as a meal

I'm in the camp of "if that's the only thing you can palette at the moment, it absolutely counts as a meal." I'm a person who can't really eat in the mornings, but know sometimes I have to do things and will absolutely be whiney and hungry later. So like, sincerely from a person who doesn't always have the ability to consume a proper meal, it counts as a

meal

I usually eat, but hyperfocus is a thing and boy howdy has it been tunneled in hard today

and when i was done, i went and got caffeine instead of making a meal XD

xD Lol, then I don't think the offbrand once-in-a-while thing is bad either. You can also tell yourself to make up for it later with some fruit for a snack or something <3
