Paradoxically enough, I will eat less when I use the CCR as lounge before an F trip as I then typically want to eat onboard, and a full meal only if using it either through my CCR card or before connecting from an F trip (not least as I find the BA F onboard breakfast mediocre at best).

Incidentally, since much was said above on meat vs fish, I will admit that I often prefer fish before a flight. In fact, the QF F lounge focus is far more fish-centric (not least with often delicious raw fish starters) and I'd love BA to offer similar dishes!
Maybe I'm just greedy, but I think I have a fairly average appetite and don't find the CCR menu particularly filling at times. I'd rather eat a decent meal in the CCR though if possible and not have to worry about trying to eat a full meal on board.
