Light breakfast eaters...what time do you end up eating lunch?

[dreambound]

We usually eat light breakfasts. We're staying at FW, but we're on the dining plan and I don't want to use lots of credits at Trail's End (and there's no CS at FW.) I have most of our lunch ADR's for 1pm. I'm starting to think that might be too late in the day and that I might be better off getting earlier times (if available.)

Does anyone else do a very light breakfast (as in, muffins in the room, etc?) What time do you have lunch?

Thanks!

We are not big breakfast eaters. Well, I'm not a big breakfast eater. We always get the dining plan, always. My DH either gets a counter service breakfast at our resort and brings it back to the room while the rest of us get ready, or he will eat something that we brought (danishes, muffins, cereal, etc.). Our DD always eats a light breakfast, usually cereal.

Our lunch is a counter service at a park and is usually around 11am or 11:30am. We save our TS meals for dinner. Always. Then, we use our snack credits throughout the day if we're hungry. I usually don't use mine, so DH and DD will use them.

We generally take some small portable foods with us to give the kiddos in the morning like a granola bar or muffin. Then we will do a CS lunch around noonish. But if the kids get a little peckish between leaving the resort and lunchtime, we'll pick up a snack and let them split so they don't ruin their appetites for lunch.

Thanks! I'm thinking I need to add some dinner ADR's REALLY fast! That way we can use our CS for lunch. 37 days out, let's see how this goes!

My kids are not breakfast eaters.
I find that they are ready to eat by 12:00n.
My lunch ADR's are all for 12:00n....or before.
And that being said, my dinner ADR's are all for 6:00 as well.
We don't like later times in the evening because we like park time after dinner.

Yep, we do not eat breakfast, have CS lunch at 11:00-11:30 and then eat TS in the evening. Nobody wants to stop for TS lunch mid-day so the TS dinner works out as everyone is ready for a break by that time.

It is a long time to go without a meal. I would use your snack credits mid-morning for some bakery items and yes, ice cream! Why not, your on vacation!

We usually have pop tarts in the morning and have an early counter service lunch with our table service for dinner. Unless we have a character bfast, then we'll have a early counter service dinner. We use our snacks in between if we get hungry, which we usually don't too often.

Since you have the meal plan I would suggest taking fruit off a buffet (one that you are already eating at!) or opting out of a desert and taking the fruit. Some counter service places allowy you to have fruit as a desert and you can save this for the next day. If you are hungry after breakfast but before lunch have a piece of fruit.

We hardly ever eat much breakfast and are usually starving by 11:30.
